Selecting the mosaic type

Single file is well suited for use with smaller, less complex projects. The entire mosaic is written to an individual file with a tile-definition layer of only one polygon shape. The file name is also appended with 1_1.

Tiled is well suited for use with larger, more complex projects. That is, when mosaicking large volumes of data, it is more practical to create the mosaic as a series of smaller tiles rather than one (potentially) large file. The tile-definition layout is created as a vector-polygon layer. The tiles will consist of a series of polygon shapes within the vector layer.

Defined by polygons uses a file you specify that has an existing vector-polygon layer containing the tile definitions you want to use for the mosaic.
