Dear mappers,

In the next weeks I'll be receiving several thousand aerial imagery 
scenes. I'd like to make an index map in MI for determining which scenes 
cover specific geographic points

I have the following information:
· scene dims (1500 x 1000 meters)
· scene center point
· aircraft heading

I'm hoping to find a way around manually creating a rectangular polygon 
for each scene (there are way too many for this to be practical)

Can I "automatically" generate a few thousand rectangles of specified 
dimensions with centroids coming from x and y coordinate columns in a 
table? Perhaps a Set Object Create Rectangle (centroid x, centroid y) 
sort of thing?

Furthermore, can I then rotate each polygon based on a heading value 
contained in another column?

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Hans Vidkjer
