Running a Lambda

Follow these steps to execute a spatial lambda:

Step 1:Prepare Your Dataset

Ensure your data is processed into an indexed dataset or voxel grid. Lambdas operate on indexed datasets ratherthan raw uploads.

Step 2:Select or Upload a Lambda

Navigate to your dataset's actions menu

Choose Run Lambda

Select a pre-built lambda (e.g., volume calculation, surface extraction) OR upload your owncode file

 Step 3:Configure Parameters

Define the execution parameters:

Region of interest: Full dataset or specific bounding box

Property filters: Set thresholds (e.g., grade 0.5)

Output options: Specify whether to generate new datasets

User inputs: Provide any custom parameters your lambda requires

 

Step 4:Launch the Job

Start the lambda execution:

The task appears in Pending Tasks

On the free tier, only one job (processing or lambda) can run at a time

Additional jobs queue until the current job finishes

 

Step 5:Review Results

When complete, results appear in:

Reports section: Summary values and statistics

Outputs section: New datasets generated by the lambda
