Vertical Mapper

Convert points to continuous grids

Create thematic shadings to visualise trends

Analyse and visualize elevation models

Reveal unknown relationships between grids

What can Vertical Mapper do for you?

One of the most powerful tools available for creating, visualising and analysing grids!

What is a grid?

Similar to raster- Lines and columns with image elements / squares

Each square has a value- Numerical grid- Classified grid

Values are assigned colours

Data Suitable to Show in Grids

Continuous data in a numeric grid

- Elevation- Temperature- Minerals- Risk- Income- Etc.

Type of area in a classified grid

- Land usage- Coverage areas- Intervals from numeric grids,

e.g. population density

Creating Numeric Grids

Interpolation- Triangulation- Inverse Distance Weighting- Natural Neighbour- Kriging- Rectangular- Custom calculation

Modelling- Gravity model- Point density

Vector to Grid convertImport

Interpolation

Calculate the value of centre point in each square based on nearby measured values

What do you get?

Program extension to MapInfo Professional- MBX- Advanced mathematical algorithms (dll)

Menu, Toolbar and Grid Manager

Examples of Usage

Create and visualise elevation models- Also draping ortophoto

Decision support for masts and antennas- Line-of-sight and coverage

Location analysis- Shops, schools, service units, etc.

Environmental analysis- Analyse environmental trends and risks- Calculate correlations

Risk analysis- Visualise flooding zones- Identify hotspot areas
