AutoClean

1) Export To Plot

Export of a scaled Geotiff from a user defined area with various layers, e.g. shallow soundings, contours, colored grid, cad, WMS, ENC etc.
The resulting Geotiff can be straight imported into a third party plot program. GeoTiff contains boundary and CRS info. 

2) S-57 ENC background

Unencrypted S-57 000 cells can now be shown in an optional background layer.

3) Save/Load Project Edits

The edits that were carried out on the point files can be saved to an “edit file”. The edit file can then be restored in another project. This enables collaborative (multi-user) cleaning.
