Hi Ross,
Are all higher order districts given as a sum of complete lower order
districts ? Otherwise it may indeed be an ugly job to tackle, especially
if you have a large dataset.
The proper way seems to be to first get the lowest level in order, and
then either re-digitize or programmatically force each higher level in
turn to follow the immidiate lower level's boundaries.
If always defining higher order districts as a set of complete lower
level districts, combining these may be the easiest procedure.
I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with any off-the-shelf products that can do
this, but I'm sure it can be built if not. :-)
Best regards / Med venlig hilsen

Hey List!
Anyone have a down and dirty solution to dealing with conflation in MapInfo?
Any tools out there that work best? I am basically trying to align
administrative borders between various levels (i.e. country, state, district,
etc) and it looks to be u-g-l-y.
?
thanks
