RE: MI Vertical Mapper DEM Import Question
VM Tech support responded this AM and said: What you will need to do is select Tools from the Grid Manager, and select Alter z and description (VM2.0 - 2.1.1) or Alter Meta Data (VM 2.5). Then you can change the z units to either meters or feet. This will not change the values accordingly, however. If you wish to change the values, you will need to use the Grid Calculator from the Analysis button on the Grid Manager, and with your grid selected that needs to be converted to either meters or feet, simply use the calculator to multiply it by either 0.3048xx or by 3.2xx depending which way you're converting (I can't remember the actual formulae). The equation will look something like this: Grid1*0.3048 You will then be able to splice the grids. You will still need to ensure that the z units are the same in order to splice them.

MI Vertical Mapper DEM Import Question
Hey everyone. I have imported a bunch of USGS 7.5 minute DEMs using the import tool. Some of the files came in as Feet and some as Meters. Home can I either specify the units on import of change them after they get into MapInfo??

Polybrk.mbx on the Mapinfo utilities site breaks a polyline into segments at nodes, which can lead to the creation of hundreds of segments with complex polylines (although it is very useful!)
