Polygon area and perimeter distance, as well as polyline distance are basic GIS functions. Also important are multi-polygon operations such intersection and union. Buffer creation around points, lines and polygons is also used quite a lot. There are a host of network problems to tackle too, e.g. shortest|fastest|least cost path, the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP)... Then there are myriad problems in modeling -- market analysis, optimal site planning, risk management, emergency response... how much work would you like? - Bill Thoen --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 10824
