Jerry, I used to import my GM Geological map into MapInfo to do finishing work. I recently acquired ArcGIS. So I am trying to import into it. I created the Map...
Jon, That should be simple to add. Does DeLorme allow all of those to be combined within a single file? Is there a file extension commonly used for these ...
I see that GM has export for DeLorme polygon text files, but not for DeLorme track and waypoint text files. Would it be possible to add this functionality?...
Al, Are you trying to go from .MIF to .SHP via GM? If so, does your MapInfo file display properly in GM? I might try opening one of your new shape files in...
Thanks, jerry My problem is I cannot even see my file. When I export into shape file, first I have to do it in three separate files: area, line and point....
Wow, some rough comments. I use about 6 programs all day, every day. Petra, Geographix, ArcMap 9.3, Global Mapper, Canvas and often Kingdom SMT Seismic. I get...
Jerry/AL, I appreciate what you are saying, but I suspect that there is a PRJ file accompanying the SHP file that completely defines the projection system used...
Mike, I think the problem is with GM and not ArcMap. I have the same problem quite often when opening a .shp file in ArcMap created in GM. ArcMap does open...
The ProjLinearUnitsGeoKey are for defining the ground units associated with the projection of the file and not the elevation units stored in the file which are...
I now realize there is a solution - in GM v10 go to Control Center, choose the layer/Options, and alter the elevation units - but I still don't understand why...
Emad, This is something we may eventually add, but for now I would suggest grouping your files into separate map catalogs and then load the map catalogs. That...
Mike, I wish to have some kind of organization in Overlay Control Center since I have around hundred of files from different sources and may be points , lines...
Dan, Can you get your grid loaded as a series of rectangular area features? If so, you can load the ECW and those features, then select all of the areas (or at...
Hi.. thanks for the forum BTW.. I have a state wide ECW file and I would like to extract some tiles using a pre-defined grid. I have the bounding x/y coords...
AL, I'm not too familiar with ArcMap or ArcCatalog (I avoid them because of things like this and as they tend to be examples of how not to write mapping ...
Thanks, Mike. I see your poiunt. I just put my exported shape file from GM into the desktop folder and when I try to open it in Arc Map, I just can't see it. I...
AL, You should just be able to load the SHP file. Of course ArcMap is rather stupid sometimes and won't allow you to load a file at all if it doesn't like...
Folks, Any idea on how to import ESRI shape file exported from GM can be integrated into ArcMap? I just could not see my exported map file from GM when I try...
Alan, The values in the Float/Grid file should not have an implied decimal. I'm guessing that when you exported the DEM file that you perhaps used units of ...
Mike, Please ignore the previous comments. The problem I am seeing has nothing to do with the creation of the transformed DEMs. These work perfectly. what I...
Mike, Another quick question: If the Slope Direction values do have an extra zero, that would explain why my legend on the transformed DEM goes from 334 to...
Mike, Took me awhile to figure out how to make this work for me, but it works beautifully -especially having the ability to apply a custom shader to each layer...
Mike, You can do this in Global Mapper by selecting the polygon, then right-clicking, selecting the Advanced Feature Selection submenu option to select all...
Mike, I need to select a large number of points in a polygon and obtain a count. Is there a quick way of doing this without exporting the vector data cropped ...
Alan, I have gone ahead and added a new 'Slope Direction' shader to Global Mapper. You can setup the coloring on the Shader Options tab of the Configuration ...
Thanks Mike. From: global_mapper@yahoogroups.com [mailto:global_mapper@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Global Mapper Support Sent: Saturday, December 06, 2008...
Alan, The slope as used in Global Mapper is defined as the square root of the sum of squares of the slope along the x axis and the slope along the y axis. I ...
Hi Mike, I know about converting DEM altitudes to degree of slope in GM. Earlier I asked about direction of slope and you said that GM doesn't do that. I was ...
There is actually NO issue in matching IF the time on both the camera and on the GPS is even just close, if you are standing still when the photo is taken and...
Bob, thank you very much for the detailed information. Is the GPS attached to the Camera during photo shooting? If that is the case, that will be nice. If you...
