Try this it might work. If I understand the problem I think this can be achieved via GE. Use Google Earth Pro - it might also work with the freeware GE? First import either "registered" image into MapInfo Pro. Adjust both to the same projection - Should be a breeze with new features in MIP 8.5?
Next, export either image using the MIP Google Earth raster export. In GE place which ever image represents the "changed" image over the reference image. Adjust via GE the transparency of the "changed" image. Use any number of the emerging free vector sketching tools (SketchUp as one suggestion) to outline the differences as SHP files. Pay attention to the SHP projection - it's a rather stupid format... Import these same files back into MIP. Seems like this should work? Also have you noticed that Google Maps are pretty darned complete for Europe and Australia as well as US. Just a matter of time till they show up on GE. Something good is soon to happen....

Hi all, I'm Eric, an industrial trainee from a telecommunication company. I want to ask if I can like compare the MapInfo with a another JPEG map or some other map in different formats? What do I mean by compare is like putting a transparent layer of the other file on top of the MapInfo map (vice versa) so it shows the information from the 2 maps. I really hope you all can reply me as soon as possible because its a big project for me. Thank You! Thank You all again~! -Eric _________________________________________________________________ Block pop-up ads with MSN Toolbar. http://toolbar.msn.com.my/ _______________________________________________ MapInfo-L mailing list [email protected] http://www.directionsmag.com/mailman/listinfo/mapinfo-l _______________________________________________ MapInfo-L mailing list [email protected] http://www.directionsmag.com/mailman/listinfo/mapinfo-l
