MI ? regarding geocoding to zip centriod using mapmarker OCX

2000-08-23 Thread Dadler1

I have a question regarding mapinfo's mapmarker OCX. I work with a software 
company that has developed an app. that embeds the mapmarker OCX to enable 
geocoding on DB's. My question pertains to geocoding to a Zip code centroid 
level. When geocoding to the Zip code centroid are there specific required 
fields that the OCX requires other than just the zip code? 
 In our app presently you cannot geocode to a zip code centroid unless you 
have a street, city, state zip. I believe that iS that a function of our app. 
 I have run some tests of geocoding to the zip code centroid through 
mapmarker itself and all I have needed is a DB containing zip codes. I wasn't 
sure if the OCX ran the same way or if it was a function of how we wrote the 
code to geocode to zip centroids.

Thanks,

Darrell

MI Utiltiy to find out what objects reside in a polygon

2000-08-04 Thread Dadler1

I am trying to find out if there is a utility of somekind that will update a 
file with what objects reside in a particular region/polygon? 

Basically  I have a bunch of points on a map and I am overlaying a grid (130 
boxes).  I want to be able to find out what points reside in each grid box 
and then place the result in the particular table.

MI converting a DXF file into a grid with polygons

2000-08-04 Thread Dadler1

I received a DXF file (CAD drawing of a grid) that is a bunch of individual 
line segements. I have used the Universal Translator to convert the file into 
a mapinfo TAB format that can be viewed in Mapinfo Pro. I am trying to 
convert the grid into regions/polygons. I know there is a convert to polyline 
 convert to region however, when I attempt to select the oject and convert 
it I am not able to create regions/polygons. Is there some other way or a 
utiltiy that I can convert the line segements into regions/polygons?

MI ? regarding creating a grid

2000-07-25 Thread Dadler1

I wanted to find out if there is a mapinfo utility to generate a grid to 
identify how many objects lie within a specific coord. (I'm looking for 
something very similar to a paper map type grid, e.g. B-1 or C-7). 

If there is then can the you setup grid parameters ( Degree intervals per box 
and or seconds) ?

MI ? converting a file into a mapinfo formated file

2000-06-23 Thread Dadler1

ITo mapinfo users, I wanted to find out if through mapinfo pro or through 
some of utiltiy if there was a way to convert a shape file into a mapinfo 
formated file. I received an email from a GIS company that has some maps that 
are in Arcinfo format (.shp, .shx, .e00  .dbf) I was hoping to take the 
shape file or one of the others and be able to convert it info a Mapinfo 
formated file.

Is this possible and if so can I do it directly in Mapinfo Pro or do I need a 
special utility?

Thanks,

Darrell

MI Mapinfo utility to shift geocoded points

2000-05-31 Thread Dadler1

I wanted to find out if there is a MB utility of somekind that will jitter 
(shift) a bunch of geocoded points that are stacked on top of one another due 
to being geocoded to a a zipcode centroid etc. 

I do a tremendous amount of batch geocoding and when there are records that 
do not have very clean addresses they get geocoded to Zip code centroid and 
in order to identify how many there are I have to click on the info tool 
button. What I would like to do is shift/jitter those points that are stacked 
on top of one another  just a shade so that I can have an easier time 
identifying how many and then click on an individual point  and move if 
rather than having to pull the points one at a time off the top of the stack.

Thanks.

MI ? regarding font editors to edit mapinfo's map symbols a truetypefont

2000-01-25 Thread Dadler1

I am posting a question pertaining to a font editor out there that will 
enable me to edit/add symbols to mapinfo's map symbols true type fonts. I 
have been emailing a tech support rep. who has mentioned fontographer as 
being a font editor. I have not been able to locate the package. Is anyone 
familar with it and if so where can I find a copy of it on the web or in 
stores? Also, are there any other font editing programs out there that will 
enable me to edit true type fonts.

Thanks,
