MapInfo Vertical Mapper

MapInfo Professional add-on for grid based analysis

MapInfo Vertical Mapper is a grid-based analytical application that transforms location point data into continuous surfaces and contours for physical factors such as elevation or temperature, or thematic factors such as income or crime. MapInfo Vertical Mapper allows users to view constantly changing location-based variables by thematically mapping the data with colour or relief shading, or by layering and comparing the data mathematically with other grid themes to visualise and identify otherwise hidden relationships. MapInfo Vertical Mapper integrates seamlessly with MapInfo Professional. It is customisable via an API library that can be used with MapBasic or other programming languages.

  • MapInfo Vertical Mapper offers an easy to use interface that is tightly integrated with MapInfo Professional.
  • MapInfo Vertical Mapper supports use of both numeric and classified (type) grids. The grid cells in this map represent different land classifications.
  • In this map MapInfo Vertical Mapper was used to take a large data set of individual policy information and use a grid to create an easy to understandable aggregation of this data.
  • Different grid layers can be visualised together as a set of distinct layers.
  • In this screenshot, wireless signal strengths and communications towers have been overlaid on a terrain map. MapInfo Vertical Mapper supports a variety of wireless network engineering related tasks.
  • MapInfo Vertical Mapper v3.7 introduced the ability to convert a standard aerial photo into data that can be analysed. In this example rooftop information is being extracted from an aerial photo to be further used. Some different steps and result possibilities are shown. This capability can be used for aerial photos of many different types.
  • MapInfo Vertical Mapper can calculate whether or not one point on a terrain map is visible to another. This can take into account the height of an antennae, building or tower of some type.
