Application Notes

This dialog option is used to extract windows of data from array channels. For example, you can use it to extract radiometric windows from radiometric data.

The output window is calculated as either the simple sum or the average of the values within the array window. If any array values are marked as dummy, the resulting output will also be dummy.

If the specified output channel does not exist, it will be created using the same data type as the input array channel.
