RE: [OpenMap Users] MapInfo adapter

The MapInfo functionality in OpenMap supports

MIF files only (MapInfo Data Interchange format)

MID files or TAB files are not currently supported, I would like to see it
supported in the future though.

What you can do if you have the MapInfo professional product, is open your
TAB files up within a MapInfo Professional workspace and export them as MIF
files, then use in OpenMap! This may or may not satisfy your requirements.

Cheers,

Simon

Hi everyone,

Does anyone happen to know if the MapInfo adapter supports image based
MapInfo files? They are composed of a .TAB file (containing the
geo-spatial information) and an associated .TIFF or will these need to
be converted to shp?

Thanks very very much!
