Merge All Imagery Types for Two Collections

As the name implies, this option merges all Images for two Collections.

It is important that the following conditions are satisfied: Both Collections must have matching Image Types. Two collections must be selected from the Imagery page.

Example

Over time separate Collections may accumulate Images but for some reason (e.g. Project merging), they need to be merged. In this example, all Image Types for the AADD0143 Collection are to be merged into the AADD0141 Collection. Both are required to be selected:

From Image Tools, select:

1. Merge All Imagery Types for Two Collections.
2. The Collection that is to be merged (Mine Development/Drilling/AADD0143) in this example.
3. The Collection into which the above is to be merged (Mine Development/Drilling/AADD0141) in this example. A summary of  Image Types is provided.

The x in the screenshot is a quick way to reset a selection.

4. Click Merge. A Summary Dialog is displayed:

Click Merge to begin the process. When complete, the merged Collection (AADD0143) is removed because it now exists in the the destination Collection (AADD0141). AADD0143 no longer exists.

All Attributes and Features associated with the source Collection are maintained within the newly merged Collection.
