Please use the contact page e-mail form to indicate which routine you are downloading or for any comments on the routines.

Please note that the MBX routines may need you to set your Windows Regional and Language Settings so that the Decimal Point Character is "." (Full Stop or Period). Otherwise any of the routines that involve exporting or importing mid/mif files may fail.

Triangulation and Contouring Routines. This folder contains an updated MBX that deals with negative heights. Routines to create contours from regular or irregular point networks.  Download Triangulation and Contouring Folder

Update to Route_Walker. This folder contains an updated version of the MBX used to determine routes out to a maximum distance from a point. Download Route_Walker Folder

SRTM Utilities. This zip holds 2 executables that are used for creating mig tables from SRTM HGT files and a executable to create contour regions from a 3 arcsecond HGT file. Download SRTM Folder

MIGS from Table of Polygons
Create a standard MIG from 'values' of polygons in a table. The mbx and the executable must be in the same folder. See the notes on copies of dlls etc if you are unable to place the mbx and exe in your mapinfo folder. Be careful that you set the right cell size for the projection units and for the overall size of the mig. If you are using a Lat/Long projection then the step size should be as a fraction of a degree (1 minute of arc = 0.01666666 degree). If you are using a E/N projection, then the step size should be appropriate; 10m, 100m, 250m etc. Download Polygon_2_Mig Folder

Transform and Register Non-Earth Tables.
Use a choice of transformations (Affine, Helmert, Projective, Finite Element, 1^st, 2^nd or 3^rd Order polynomial) to fit points from the CAD table(s) to control and then transform CAD tables to the projection. Statistics are shown for each point pair. Area objects defined by MBR (Rects, Rount Rects, Ellipses etc) should be converted to regions to allow for any rotation. Similarly linear objects (Arcs) should be converted to polylines. Download Transformation to Projection and Registration of Non-Earth (CAD) Tables Zip

Cartograms.
Generate a cartogram for a set of region objects based on a "density" value, ie Population per km². The MBX assumes that area measurements are in square kilometres. Other data can then be added to the window, except for text data. Area objects defined by MBR (Rects, Rount Rects, Ellipses etc) should be converted to regions (and maybe densified) to allow them to be distorted sensibly. Similarly linear objects (Lines, Arcs) should be converted to polylines, and densified if necessary.
