MapInfo® Vertical Mapper™

Working seamlessly within MapInfo ®Professional® , Vertical Mapper™ is an effective tool to display, manage, and interpret spatial information. Vertical Mapper™ features modelling tools and a full suite of interpolators that let you build continuous surfaces, or grids, from existing point files or unmapped tables, regardless of data type.

Grid surfaces can be layered, queried and visualised in 3-D.

Vertical Mapper has robust spatial analysis capabilities that help you gain new insight from your data. Analysis capabilities include: point to point intervisibility, viewshed analysis, and natural neighbourhood analysis.

Vertical Mapper can also be used to :

  • Produce 3D perspective views of the terrain with optional overlay of imagery
  • Calculate steepness of slope
  • Show cross-sections
  • Analyse Natural Neighbour (Voroni)
  • Profile location eg. to identify customer locations, areas of high crime etc.

MicroStation GeoGraphics

Microstation GeoGraphics is built around MicroStation - Bentley's CAD application. It transforms Microstation into a comprehensive GIS environment with comprehensive data collection, editing, clean-up and analysis tools.

Microstation GeoGraphics allows users to integrate engineering and mapping applications on a single platform. It extends the data capture and editing tools in MicroStation, with a solid database interface and spatial analysis functionality.

MicroStation GeoGraphics iSpatial Edition provides hybrid storage of spatial data, including DGN format, raster files and Oracle Spatial. Geometry stored in Oracle Spatial, supported by MicroStation GeoGraphics iSpatial Edition, are Open-GIS compliant and can be shared with other Open-GIS compliant applications.

Most projects require some level of customisation. With Microstation GeoGraphics iSpatial Edition's robust API, developers can build their own localised applications, including Oracle Spatial-enabled Microstation solutions.
