Tile

Tiled/segmented data

The GeoDMS calculates with memory arrays. These arrays can be split up in a set of smaller arrays for two reasons:

  1. If the array size exceeds the available internal memory (especially in 32 bits mode)
  2. performance

For one-dimensional domain units, the resulting data is called segmented (do not confuss the term segmented with segment).

For two-dimensional domain units (grid) the resulting data is called tiled.

The resulting domain unit is called a tiled domain. Use The tiledunit function to configure an explicit tiled domain.
