Rendering Method
SAMM either uses software or hardware to render swaths and perform computations. The
method used depends on your available hardware, which SAMM auto detects. SAMM uses
hardware rendering if you have a GPU, either integrated in the CPU or video card. SAMM's
mosaic window and PPI have higher quality images when using a GPU to render the sonar
data. If you do not have a GPU, SAMM uses software rendering. If SAMM detects multiple
crashes, it will automatically ask if you want to switch to software rendering upon launch (Figure
24). You can select this via the check-box option at the bottom of the configuration dialog
