Description
Grid Imp - imports gridded data into MS-MapPoint, to produce attractive data maps. Can handle imperfect data, holes, re-gridding, etc. Can be used to import such attributes as pollution data, seismic hazard, geological information, customer/population distribution, etc. Grid Imp is a software that permit you to import data and produce maps. Various text formats supported using space, tab, or comma separators. Data must be addressed using longitude, latitude coordinates. Features: - Display data that is on gridded coordinates, rather than addresses or zip-codes. - Add a greater range of attractive displays to MapPoint. - Greater flexibility of colors than standard MapPoint maps and charts. - Tolerance for missing data. - Plot data at a different resolution to that of the input file. - Plot data for any point in the World, unconstrained by the MapPoint edition being used. - No need to upgrade from 2002: Works with both the 2002 and 2004 editions of MapPoint. - Works with text files exported by Excel, Access, and many other applications. - Data points are indexed by longitude and latitude coordinates - ie. as used by GPS systems and cartographers. - Can re-grid data for a smoother display. - Support for data holes: keep them or interpolate across them! - Support for a variety of different text files including space, tab, and comma separated types. - Polygon-reduction algorithm to speed MapPoints rendering of the final display. - Design and re-use your own colormaps. - Walk-through tutorials.
