VPmap Series V1 -
Overview
VPmap Series bridges the
gap between raw mapping material and geographical information systems.
VPmap and VPmap pro provide professional interactive tools to
create, georeference, and edit spatial data and attribute information from
scanned maps for transfer into GIS. Simply convert raster maps into
vector-based maps, utilize intelligent attribute-definition functions, and
add individual attributes. The VPmap Series will be targeted at GIS
applications, mainly to transfer scanned maps into ArcGIS (ESRI), MapInfo,
Autodesk Map etc. Thus, VPmap Series products contain
GeoTIFF, Shapefile SHP, and MIF support for import and export explicitly to
and from any common GIS platform
|
Raster Conversion:
VPmap Series
imports almost any raster file format. Just scan your maps, or use satellite
images as the first step to build up your geographical information system
(GIS). Both products support easy, interactive tools to vectorize and
recognize outlines and even reduce the color depth by intelligent color
handling. In addition, VPmap pro offers
functions for automatic vectorization and symbol recognition.
Attribute Determination:
VPmap Series features sophisticated ways
to simply recognize shape-based geometrical information and convert them to
geographical attributes of entities. In addition you can define or import
your own attribute tables and fill them interactively.
Geographical Information
Query:
VPmap Series enables quick input of
attribute-based queries. Results will be visually displayed in the image or
drawing.
Export:
VPmap Series
offers export possibilities to the most common GIS systems, like
MapInfo, ArcGIS/ArcInfo, or
Autodesk Map. Raster information will be exported as well as entities an
their attributs.
