Enhance geographic data analysis and visualization in MapInfo with the power of grids. The Dynamic Duo of Vertical Mapper working seamlessly within MapInfo can display your data and analyze trends over large areas like never before. Whether it's income data or pollutant distribution, turning point observations into a continuous gridded surface provides the user with the analytical power to compare and relate multiple map layers. Create stunning visual images of a grid surface by applying gradient colour palettes to the range of grid values. Use Vertical Mapper to visualize elevation, show the distribution of wealth across a city, optimize the location of broadcast towers, analyze health issues, model environmental information and much, much more.
Vertical Mapper
Vertical Mapper is a grid-based contouring, modeling and display system that transforms point data into a continuous surface. Mapping your data as a continuous surface allows many enhanced query and analysis options. Whether it's income data, crime statistics, elevation readings or pollutant distribution, turning your point observations into a smart-raster map provides the user with both a visual image and the analytical power to compare and relate multiple map layers.
Smart-raster Map Analysis
The data held in Vertical Mapper raster-grid files can be queried just as in any other MapInfo file. Update columns in browser tables by inspecting points or regions that overlie your raster maps. Mathematical operations can be performed on a single or multiple grids.
Produce New Polygon Files
Contour lines or complex regions can be generated from any smart-raster file, allowing you to convert back to MapInfo polygon format with attributes attached to each polygon.
Other Features Include:
3D rendering of grid surfaces
Symbol plotting
Custom linetypes
Natural neighborhood (Voronoi) diagrams
Point aggregation
Grid trimming/combining
Cross sections
Applications
Operating seamlessly within MapInfo, Vertical Mapper provides new mapping solutions for business, marketing, agriculture, telecommunications and natural resource professionals.
System Requirements
Works with any system running MapInfo 3.0x or 4.0 for Windows.
The Evolution of Vertical Mapper
Vertical Mapper release 3.0 includes new functionality and enhancements that help users leverage location-based information. Key features include:
Predictive Analysis Tool
The Predictive Analysis tool will automatically identify areas with statistically similar attributes based on a user-defined test location. For example, the tool can suggest the best locations for additional retail outlets from the selection of an existing high-volume location.
Point Density
Users are given two methods to derive point density, either by square area or kernel smoothing. which indicates the probability of an event recurring in an area.
Correlation Tool
Users can determine relationships between data sets and view the results in tables. This can help users select representative data sets for quicker analysis. Three different options are offered:
Correlation matrix will display the statistical relationship between input grids
Grouper function will group statistically similar grids
Principle component analysis provides analysis of the variance between all grids
Custom Point Estimation
Users can specify the calculation to be executed on a set of points within a specified radius. The user may select from the following types of calculations:
Sum of Values
Minimum Value
Maximum Value
Average Value
Count of Data Points
GRC Reclass
GRC Reclass allows users to modify the class structure of a .GRC file, such as changing class names or merging classes with similar characteristics.
