SMS requires that a mesh or grid have bathymetry, or bottom elevation data, associated with the nodes or cells. By default, SMS creates a dataset named "elevation" to store the elevation values. The dataset being used to store elevations is referred to as the mapped dataset.
The Data menus in several modules include a command to use another functional dataset as this mapped elevation function. When this command is performed the Select Dataset dialog opens to allow any existing scalar dataset to be chosen. Any time step of any scalar dataset can be used as the mapped dataset and override the previous nodal elevation values. This is used mainly when interpolating new elevation data from scatter points.
