--- Start of Idrisi List message Hi, In relation to the use of CartaLinx... I have had a few problems. Is it necessary to have a 'Coverage based upon a bitmap'?? The image which I have is around 250mgs... 9962 columns and 7701 rows... unit distance is 1.0000000 m. It is a geo-rectified tiff image and has also been imported to Idrisi32 as a raster file. I understand that I need to use, 'Image Conversions' in order to convert to a geo-referenced bmp file. The conversion takes about 5-10 mins. I then use, File > New Coverage > Coverage Based Upon Bitmap... but get the message... 'Bitmap image is not valid'. It is creating a .gbm file... so don't know what the problem could be! Could the image be too big... it so... how do I get around it. As the for map.... it is considerably bigger than the digitising tablet... would I need to spilt that up as well. Would appreciate any help or advice people may have. In relation to the last message posted, I have also had the message, "Unexpected error condition encountered. Please check the integrity of the operation performed, the data files used, and the amount of disk space available." For some of the modules... one of those was the use of Pointvec... for raster to vector conversion. I haven't had this appear before and am wondering if you could be a problem with the latest patch?
