Hi Adrian
To open Mr Sid files in MapInfo you need to do the following (assuming you
have already installed the Mr Sid extension from www.lizradtech.com)
File open
Select "Raster"
Navigate to the appropriate folder
Type *.sid and hit "Enter"
All the Mr Sid format files will appear
Select the one you want and double click
It should open and be geo-referenced
If you want to produce a TAB or TFW file, open the Mr Sid image in the stand
alone Mr Sid viewer and export as a TIF file - it will also produce the TAB
and TFW files (and a image file 10 to 20 times larger!)
Hope the above helps....
Cheers
Greg

Subject: MI Opening Mr Sid images with co-ordinates in .sdw format---
help
Hi mappers
I have acquired some imaging in Mr Sid format, it's registered in a seperate
.sdw file I presume this is either an esri format or is used by mr sid. Does
anyone know a translator that will allow me to place this info in a tab file
rather than struggle by hand to register it
the .sdw file says
25.000000000000000
0.000000000000000
0.000000000000000
-25.000000000000000
270012.500000000000000
394987.500000000000000
there is no other info and having seen .tfw world files they look similar
any ideas welcome
Adrian
