Loading vector map from MIF/MID format

The program «Import from MIF/MID» is intended for formation of digital map in a format of GIS «Panorama 11» from data of format MIF/MID.

Exchange format MIF/MID is presented by text ASCII-files which describe coordinates, attributes and external view (graphic representation) of map objects. Information about coordinates and graphic representation is stored in a file with MIF extension, and attributes of objects - in a file with MID extension.

One pair of files MIF/MID represents one layer of a map and describes various graphic objects: lines, points, regions, texts etc.

The map in format MIF/MID can consist of several layers, i.e. several pairs of files of exchange format MIF/MID.

Converter allows to import the data into the user map which is created automatically by the program, or is created by user in advance. The source data can be both in geodetic coordinates, and in rectangular.

During the conversion process, import of attributive information about objects is performed and its saving in the semantics of objects.
