LorikGISTools is a comprehensive geoprocessing toolbox designed to enhance and optimize geographic data from various sources. By integrating vector databases, georeferenced images, and digital terrain models, it enables users to identify, modify, and create data layers efficiently. The software supports a wide range of GIS file formats, including Shape, MIF/MID, E00, and KML, ensuring seamless data import and adaptation to the georeferencing of the workspace, even if original coordinates and structures differ.
Key Features and Functionality:
- Layer Import: Supports simultaneous import of multiple GIS file formats, adapting them to the workspace's georeferencing.
- Processing Tools: Offers specialized tools for polygons, polylines, points, and digital terrain models, facilitating tasks such as creating centerlines of polygons, identifying unconnected curve ends, and generalizing networks by identifying detours.
- Relief Representation: Integrates digital terrain models to automatically create smoothed contour lines and generate relief images in luminosity (shading) or altitude (color range) modes.
- Data Optimization: Provides tools for surface aggregation, allowing users to aggregate and simplify sets of polygons using tolerance parameters.
Primary Value and User Solutions:
LorikGISTools addresses the need for efficient and precise geoprocessing in GIS workflows. By offering a versatile suite of tools compatible with various data formats, it streamlines the process of data enrichment and optimization. Users can perform on-the-fly testing to adjust parameters, ensuring accurate results before creating new layers or exporting data. This capability enhances productivity and accuracy in cartographic production, making it an invaluable asset for professionals in the field.
