MI Converting Region to Point

2000-09-24 Thread Erick Posner 

Hi,

I am working on a thesis which requires me to map the points from the
Sanborn map.

I already created several maps using regions (rectangles) representing the
buildings.  Now I need to convert it all to points instead of polygons.  How
do I do it in MapInfo 6.0?

Many thanks!

Hi Erick,

I do not know exactly what you are trying to do but please try a free
tool
called "All2Pts.mbx".

You can find and get it at

I used it when I converted polylines to points.
I had cad data full of contour lines. Each line had altitude
information.
So I converted polylines to points with altitude information.
After that, I extracted x and y on a specified projection and exported
into delimited ascii files. Then I read it with Surfer of Goldensoftware
and made 3D view.
