Results of the accounts
The output of an observation can be a table 
, or a map 
are tables and/or map. Whenever a table is compiled, the underlying spatial explicit information is also shown in a map, so in such a case both information are available.
The user knows in advance the expected outcome from the icon associated to a particular observation, this symbol for a table , this other for a map .
Tabular outputs
The main output of an account is a table, and once this is computed, the k.Explorer moves automatically from the Data view, to the Documentation section, showing the Table section (for more information on the different sections check this chapter of the guide)
The table can be copied or downloaded (click on the symbols at the right bottom of the table to export it)
Maps
To explore the geospatial explicit information in the maps used to summarize the results in the table, go back to the View Data section:
Expand the View Tree to visualize all inputs, intermediate and final output, as shown in the image below

When the 3 dots are displayed horizontally, it means that the options in the menu are hidden By clicking on the 3 dots they get disposed vertically |
Select the map that you want to visualize
When the knowledge bar turn yellow and the elephant's ball spins, the system is computing the information queried.
In this case, is loading the map
This can be visualized in the explorer or downloaded as a raster file (.tiff format) for further analyisis in a GIS system.
One can download a map by clicking on the arrow pointing down (↓) that appears when hovering over the observation ( an observation is any of the element observed in the workflow and listed in this menu)
This was the main output, but any input and intermediate output of a workflow can be observed by ticking their boxes.
The AS an example, the results for NDVI are shown below.
Notice how observations that changes over time in the context selected, have the symbol of a clock next to them, and at the bottom of the menu, you'll see a timeline, in a light blue color.
In this example, as there are just two temporal observations, there is just one separator (small tick in yellow), dividing the 2 temporal observations (2015 and 2016).
Selecting a different temporal observation, the map changes and the system displays the result for that year

The selection of one of these options triggers the model(s) underlying the output(s) selected, in case more ecological metrics are selected, the computational flow is continuous. When the whole workflow to compute one metric is completed, the system moves to the next tasks in the queue of computation. The models to be computed follow the order of selection of the user. Most of the metrics are modelled from different datasets, so the time of computation should be similar, but in case an account shares inputs used in a previous computation, those are not re-calculated, thus one should expect the additional output(s) to be computed faster. |
