We've had good results from R2V, mostly using the semi-automated interactive vectorizing of topographic contours. But, it'll automatically vectorize an entire image well also, _if_ the image is clean enough. From the sound of things, you'd have some image processing to do so that your vectors would stand out against an uncontrasting background in order to go either route well with R2V. Our goal has always been to convert the image into 1-bit (b/w) with our topo lines black and everything else white prior to digitizing. There are some image processing tools included in R2V.

Hello Listers

I have several copies of aerial photos with land parcels drawn on them. I need to scan them and convert them into vector maps (DXF, then into MapInfo). Does anyone know of a good Raster to Vector conversion software that they would recommend?

Thanks Tom H
