Adding filtered bathymetry from the Compose Surface window

To create ordered bathymetry surfaces and surface models, you need to add bathymetry datasets to the Compose Surface window. You can add datasets filtered in the Compose Surface window itself or from the Explore Bathymetry window.

1. Start ArcMap.
2. Click Customize > Toolbars > Bathymetry on the main menu to activate the Bathymetry toolbar if necessary.
3. Click the Compose Surface button on the Bathymetry toolbar.

   The Compose Surface window appears. The right side of the window lists any filtered datasets that have already been imported.

4. Click the Add Datasets From Explore Bathymetry Window button located at the top of the Compose Surface window.

   Note:

   For datasets to be added to the Compose Surface window, they must share the same properties for Dataset Type, Vertical Units, and Direction.

   Datasets filtered in your last Explore Bathymetry session are automatically added to the Compose Surface window.
