Sometimes images contain numerical values instead of information about colours. In such case there’s a need to set the following settings:

  1. We suggest using SMPyramid type as it is the new method that has improved performance in comparison with SMRaster. SMPyramid method allows you to choose the number of CPU threads used by Raster Loader (this will control the data processing speed and usage of system resources). 
  2. Check Images contain values (not colours) box.
  3. The output format will be automatically set to PNG. PNG format can store values in colour channels and contain information about altitude, the intensity of some factor etc.
