[Therion] Fixed corner co-ordinates on a map
> I am looking to try and generate an output which will always have the same co-ordinates. Andrew I would just define two stations at extreme diagonal corners of the area you want. Give them fixed co-ordinates and you are done. Give them their own survey.th, .th2 file, map definition and you're done. Bruce

If you need to use bitmap output, PDF maps contain georeferencing information (for nine points) as a comment. XTherion can use it to produce PNG image + MAP Ozi explorer-like calibration file (Help -> Calibrate bitmap). If your software doesn't load MAP files directly, you would need to write some simple conversion script. Martin
[Therion] Fixed corner co-ordinates on a map
Hi all I am looking to try and generate an output which will always have the same co-ordinates. I am try to do this as we have a rapidly expanding cave system which we would like to plot on google earth (or the likes) using Bill Chadwicks map of the Mendips http://www.bdcc.co.uk/mendip.html Now after consulting with Bill it appears if we predifine the size of the plot the crunching, just becomes computer power, so we can update then map as data comes in, full instructions are at http://www.bdcc.co.uk/GoogleCrunch/Crunch.htm Any hints welcome, one idea I have had is to use a 'blank' bit map as a surface, does it always displace the whole surface? This is something that I am having dificulty understanding the instructions for thanks Andrew PS as soon as we fix the corners we will go back to the old fashiones paper problem of going off the sides
