Hi Cameron,

That is called Convex hull. I believe the more recent versions of MapInfo
has that as a built-in function, otherwise you can find it in the free
"toolbox for mapinfo" at our website.

Kind regards

Subject: MI-L Points to Polygon


Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone had a method/MBX of being able to take a point
file and turn it into a polygon. The points would be huddled together
for the most part in one area. What I would anticipate the process doing
is taking the outmost points and connect them to create an enclosed
polygon.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.



Regards,

Cam
