RE: MI Decreasing Raster Image Resolution

1999-07-19 Thread Charles Huyck
I have done it in the opposite direction when taking low res multispectral and fusing it with panchromatic data and bringing it back into MI. In general though, you should clip out what you need and modify the pixel coordinates by subtracting. That way, you can avoid loss of resolution and

Programs generally don't create DEMs, they read them. Are you referring to the manipulation of DEMs? Perspective viewing? Speed? Quality of shaded maps or contours? Interpolation of a surface from a few XYZ points? Anyway, be sure to consider some image processing packages.

MI: Image VS GRID?

1999-12-06 Thread Charles Huyck
What is the difference between an image and a Grid? One is derived and one is imported? Aren't they both just 2D (or more) arrays of numbers? Color values reference the object. You can analyze these numbers to extract and classify the object, like on the X-files last night when the FBI agent used

Re: MI: Image VS GRID?, compression etc.

1999-12-06 Thread Charles Huyck
It sounds like you are making the distinction that a Grid file can have character attributes while an image can not. Well, the character attributes in a "Grid" are kept in a separate table and linked anyway, so they should compress the same. If you compress numeric data, you stand to loose just

I am unclear on the ability of MI/MapX to store attribute data in a remote database. When you use "File save as" and select a MDB or dbf file, no dat file is created. When you open a DBMS table into MapInfo, MI makes a .dat file. So, can you attach to a table in another database without
