Editing an existing collection

From the Manage Collections dialog box, you can edit an existing collection. When you choose to edit an existing collection, the Collection Name and metadata fields become editable. Any collection within the active Bathymetry Information System (BIS) geodatabase can be edited.

Hinweis:

The following steps use the default metadata fields that are included with the Bathymetry Solution. If you have configured your own metadata fields, the user experience for these steps will be different.

   Hinweis:

   From the Dataset Preview window, you can view any data associated with the collection in list format or as a two-dimensional preview. You can also view collection, internal, or extended metadata.
