Use this option to save the flagged soundings to be rejected by BathyPro.
BathyPro will reject soundings that exceed a specified criteria based upon a
user input. The soundings can be viewed as a group, to ascertain that they
are flyers in the data set. If we see a concentration of these points over a
small area, and have been rejected by multiple lines, it is possible that a real
feature exists on the seafloor. Using this option, to store (and later display in
DelphMap), the operator can see if there is any correlation among rejected
data points. This option can also be done for rejected Hardware settings as
well. The saved file can be either in DXF or TXT format. Decimation does
not apply here.
