Google Earth internally uses meters for elevation units, which can be an obstacle when feet are required. This tutorial explains an easy workaround for viewing contour elevation values in Google Earth and displaying them in feet.Available for... more
Rubber sheeting refers to a method in mapping and surveying where a map or spatial data is adjusted or “stretched” to align with a reference map or coordinate system. This process helps to fix distortions caused by differences in scale,... more
Mapflow is a cutting-edge geospatial intelligence platform leveraging artificial intelligence to automatically identify and classify geographic objects–such as buildings, roads, and forested areas–within satellite and aerial imagery. Mapflow enables high-precision detection and segmentation, transforming geospatial imagery into... more
When working with data sets from different sources, there are often differences in alignment between elements. The SPMRUBBERSHEET command allows you to select base points and reference points to modify vertices in a non-uniform way, beyond a simple displacement, scaling,... more
Multiple tables with various fields can be simultaneously attached to objects. This capability offers a highly organized and structured method for managing data. This approach allows the use of multiple attachments in any query, selection, labeling, or other operations.
Reverse geocoding is the process of converting geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) into a human-readable address or place name. This is typically done using a reverse geocoding service or API, which can interpret the provided coordinates and return the corresponding... more
