Map GIS data

Instructions for use

MapGIS plain code data format is a plain code file of ASCII code, and its file structure is composed of file header and data area. In the MAPGIS file system, the project file (suffix name is *.MPJ) generally includes the point file (*.WT), the line file (*.WL), the surface file (*.WP), the network file (*.WN). Before executing the import function, the MapGIS graphic file format must be converted to the MAPGIS exchange file format, that is, MapGIS plain code format, and then imported. After the above four file formats are converted into plain code format, the file names are respectively: point plain code file (*.wat), line plain code file (*.wal), area plain code file (*.wap), and network plain code file (*.wan).

SuperMap iDesktopX supports Import MapGIS one-dimensional data, that is, the four plaintext file formats mentioned above. In addition, users need to convert the color index table file into plain code format (suffix name is *.wat) under the MapGIS platform. Note: The format of this *.wat file is the same as that of the point code file, but the meaning is different.

SuperMap supports plaintext files for MapGIS 6 series products, including:

  • Data version number of point file (*.wat): WMAP6022, WMAP7022, WMAP8022, WMAP9022;
