Hi list,
I have bunches of points that need to be grouped together by an common
attribute and then each group converted into seperate region. Does anybody
know of a way to convert the "foot print" or a set of points make into a
polygon / region. I have tried to query for one type and then buffer the
objects (with the create "single object" option) but this creates a too course
an object with excessive overlap because a circle shape is used.
EG for 1 particular group of points 'x' the output should be
From x x x /----x-- x- x\
x / x\_____
xx xxxxxxx Should become |xx
xxxxxxx|
x xxx x xxx \x xxx x
xxx-----/
x x x x \-x-------x-x-x----/
I am happy to write something in Mapbasic if I could figure out the algorithm
(but a ready made tool would be better)
Hope this makes sense - any and all help is appreciated.
