Shape file (GIS)


Recommended Posts

I have just imported some shape files exported from a GIS system. The information comes in three parts -1. Area, 2. contours, 3. anno.

Each of these catagories has - .dbf, prj, sbn, sbx, shp, shp.wml, shx components.

The shape file for 3. anno (annotation) displays as single ploygon which represents the position of text for the map. Data attached to each polygon includes the text that should be located on the polygon.

Is there a routine that will display the correct text onto the drawing from the database file.
