RE: [MI-L] SUM: projection woes for madagascar.
Title: projection woes for madagascar. Many thanks to Sam Knight and Spencer Simpson for their replies.. There is'nt a definitive sum to thisposting, but it raises an issue i'd thought i'd share with other listers (esp. if you are working in madagascar) Basically the projection information is as posted on many internet docs: projection: oblique Mercator (hotine) datum: Tananarive_1925 spheroid: international 1924 Origin long: 46.43722917 Origin Latt: -18.9 Azimuth: 18.9 scale factor: 0.9995 false east: 40 false north: 80 units: m. which would suggest a PRJ file entry of: "Laborde CS", 7, 147, 7,46.43722917, -18.9, 18.9, 0.9995, 40, 80 However..this doesnt work for me, the false easting and northing needed to be 'adjusted' for my data to work (thanks Spencer). I therefore assumed that my data 'supplier' had fudged the coordinates in the map information thereby ruining the chances of the data projecting properlyBUT on testing the original data and the projection info in ArcGIS 9i find everything works fineMadagascar appears in the right place with spot-on laborde coords and correct lat longsso..the mystery is...why is mapinfo not able to replicate the laborde projection? having fiddled (at random) with the false eastings/northings i have not been able to get a unifying parameter to re-scale the values to compensate for anysimple 'metric-imperial units' typeerrors (thanks Sam)..in other words the E and N need differingfactors for MI to get madagascar to 'locate' properly in the world.. curious and a little annoying (its also the first time Mapinfo has seriously stumped me in nearly 12 years...) regards r * This message (and any attachments) is for the recipient only.

[MI-L] donut polygons
Dear listers Apologies if I am re-treading old ground I have a table of c. 25 000 objects imported from another application. Some of these objects were originally drawn as "donut" polygons (for example archaeological monuments like ring ditches with an inner and outer line to show the width of the ditch). I would like to combine these occurances into one polygon but need to find them first. Is there is simple way to find one object that lies entirely within another object in the same table, I don't understand the error messages I am getting when I attempt this. Thanks Alison Deegan ___ MapInfo-L mailing list MapInfo-L@lists.directionsmag.com http://www.directionsmag.com/mailman/listinfo/mapinfo-l
[MI-L] MapX geoset centring problem
Title: Message Hello, I am having problems opening MapX Geosets in MapInfo (7.5/7.8). Whenever I attempt to open a geosetit loads the data and then zooms to a completely different place than it issupposed to. Geosets using the British National Grid projection seem to centre on (40, 4470100) no matter where the centre should be. This does not seem to be a problemwith geosets savedwitha lat/long projection, but seems toaffect geosets saved in the other projections I've tried. It also doesn't seem to be a problem when opening them in MapInfo 6.5. Most of the data being used is savedwith theBritish National Grid projection, including some rasters, which demands that the geoset projection is the same. I am using Mapx Geoset Utility (Version 2.6) as a tool in MapInfo. Is there any way of fixing this?

You need to close the table and reopen it from the database. If you have opened the table and it wasn't mappable, MapInfo will not check to see if it has been mappable until you reopne the table from the database.

Is your original image larger than 500MB? I think the compressor downsamples larger images. However you can use FWTools ECW to compress arbitrairly large files. (http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/). Or you can tile your soruce image before compressing.

[MI-L] Mapinfor problem
Title: Mapinfor problem Hi all I have come across a strange problem.we have a contour table which was edited and saved, upon re-opening the table there is no visible data. Display override still shows nothing. The browser indicates there is data as does the file size in Explorer. Window, Marquee select highlights the select and unselect button. Query, find selection in all windows, moves to the area but still no visible data BUT with the table editable and the data selected the node reshape button is not selectable. If anyone can help it would be very much appreciated.
