Export From Constellation
Constellation provides a number of options for exporting graphical information. Some of these export options may provide options to customise the export. Others will simply request a destination file location.
Exporting from Constellation can be broken into two groups, Visualisation Exports and Data Exports.
Visualisation Exports
Visualisation exports, export the graph as viewed from the Constellation Interactive Graph. These exports will typicaly only contain visual information relevant to the visual aspects of the graph, but may contain some other identifying information.

Data Exports
Data exports will export the entirety of the graph in a format that preserves the data used for analysis and visualisation in constellation.
These formats typically contain rich information about the element being represented in the graph and are easily transferable into other platforms.
