SMS:Converting Coverages
From XMS Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Map coverages can be used to generate other geometric data types in SMS such as meshes (unstructured grids), grids (Cartesian grid), Curvinlinear or boundary fitted grids, scatter sets and cross sections. This can be accomplished by right-clicking on a coverage of an appropriate type in the Project Explorer and selecting a convert command. These commands include:
In some cases, and historically, many of these functions are accessible by selecting the similar commands from the Feature Objects menu.
Converting to a grid (2D grid, 1D grid, or quadtree) requires that a grid frame has been created on the coverage. Converting to a mesh requires that building polygons in the coverage.
For more information, see Converting Feature Objects.
