Apply search settings

You can use the geometry tools on the Search Settings tab to discover imagery within a specific area of interest.

To apply an area of interest filter, complete the following steps:

  1. On the Search Settings tab, expand Area of Interest Filter.
  2. Click a geometry to search for imagery where the footprints intersect with the defined area of interest:
    • Point—Click on the map to drop a point.
    • Line—Click on the map to draw a segment. Double-click to complete the line.
    • Polygon—Click on the map to define a side. Double-click to complete the polygon.
    • Rectangle—Click and drag on the map to draw a rectangle.
    • Circle—Click and drag on the map to draw a circle.
  3. Once a geometry has been drawn on the map, click Run Search to perform a search based on the defined geometry.

    If images from the active imagery layer exist based on the defined geometry, the map pans and zooms to the extent of the results, footprints appear on the map, and results appear on the Search Results tab.

    If no images from the active imagery layer exist based on the defined geometry, a message stating such appears on the Search Results tab.

  4. Optionally click Clear Drawn Graphics to remove the geometry graphic from the map.
