Raster layers

Raster layers are the primary data object in a Marigold session. Add layers to your maps and configure your layer settings using the Raster layers section on the left side panel. Marigold will display layers "top down," meaning that layers at the top of the list will appear above layers underneath.

Add raster layers

Raster layers can be added from Catalog, or layers exported from other Marigold projects.

Basic layer configuration

Visibility and ordering settings can be modified from a layer's row in the list.

Toggle visibility

Use the eye icon to toggle layer visibility on and off.

Autoscale

Use the magic wand icon to autoscale layers using a 2% linear stretch. This stretch will clip the lowest 2% and the highest 2% of values to eliminate extreme bright and dark regions, and stretch the remaining values across the dynamic range of values to enhance contrast.

Move layers

Use the up and down arrows to rearrange the layer order.

More configuration options

More advanced configuration options are available from the overflow menu in the layer's row.

Layer settings

Detailed settings of a layer such as name, visible bands, contrast, etc can be accessed from the layer settings menu.

Add a legend

Select Toggle legend to turn the legend for a layer on and off. Legends will be stacked when turned on for multiple layers.

Zoom to AOI

If the underlying imagery of the layer is localized, you can quickly jump to the latest available image by selecting Zoom to AOI in the kebab menu.

Duplicate a layer

Select Duplicate to add a copy of the layer to the map.

Toggle as mask

Select Toggle as mask to mark the layer as a mask that can be used for masking other layers.

Export

Select Export to export a layer for import into another Marigold project.

Folder management

Select Folder management to modify the folder of a layer.

Remove a layer

Select Remove to remove a layer from the Marigold project.

Bulk layer operations

Shortcuts are available for manipulating several layers at once.

Turn off all layers

Turns off the visibility for all layers.

Turn off all folders

Turns off the visibility for all folders.

Remove multiple layers

Remove multiple vector and raster layers at once. Selecting this option will load a dialog where raster and vector layers can be selected for deletion.
