Global Mapper User's Manual
♦ SEMICOLON - coordinates are separated by semicolons
♦ SPACE - coordinates are separated by space characters
♦ TAB - coordinates are separated by tab characters
• FEATURE_SEP (SIMPLE_ASCII only) - specifies whether or not to separate vector features with a
blank line
♦ NONE - do not separate vector features
♦ BLANK_LINE - separate vector features with a blank line
♦ Any other text. Use the escape sequence \n to specify that you want to insert a line break. For
example, to separate features with a blank line, then a line with the text "NEW FEATURE",
then another blank line, use FEATURE_SEP="\nNEW FEATURE\n".
• EXPORT_ELEV (SIMPLE_ASCII, CSV, and DXF only) - specifies whether or not a elevation value
should be generated for each vertex. A value of EXPORT_ELEV=YES will cause elevations to be
generated. If the option is not specified, elevation values will be generated.
• EXPORT_ATTRS (DGN and SIMPLE_ASCII only) - specifies whether or not feature attributes
should be written to the text file just before the coordinates. Use EXPORT_ATTRS=YES to enable
export of the feature attributes. If the option is not specified, attributes will be exported. If you don't
want to export style attribute with the feature, use EXPORT_ATTRS=NO_STYLE to get just the
associated attributes and name of the feature in the attribute list.
• COORD_OFFSET (SIMPLE_ASCII only) - specifies the offset to apply to any coordinates written to
the file. This offset will be added to each coordinate written to the file. The offset should be specified
as a comma-delimited list of the X, Y, and Z offsets, such as
COORD_OFFSET=100000.0,200000.0,0.0
• COORD_SCALE (SIMPLE_ASCII only) - specifies the scale factors to apply to any coordinates
written to the file. Each coordinate will be multiplied by these scale factor before being written to the
file. The scale factors should be specified as a comma-delimited list of the X, Y, and Z scale factors,
such as COORD_SCALE=0.1,0.1,1.0
• CDF_MAJOR_CODE (CDF only) - specifies the default major attribute code to use for features when
exporting to a CDF format file (default is 32).
• CDF_MINOR_CODE (CDF only) - specifies the default minor attribute code to use for features when
exporting to a CDF format file (default is 45).
• CDF_USE_DEFAULT_CODE (CDF only) - specifies that the default attribute code pair should be
used for all features written to the CDF file and not just those for which no attribute code pair could
be automatically determined based on the feature classification.
• INC_ELEV_ATTR (MAPINFO only) - specifies whether or not the elevation of a feature should be
added as an attribute to the MapInfo files exported. Use INC_ELEV_ATTR=YES to enable or
INC_ELEV_ATTR=NO to disable. This is enabled by default.
• INC_LAYER_ATTR (SHAPEFILE, MAPINFO, or KML only) - specifies whether or not the layer
(description) of a feature should be added as an attribute to the DBF files exported with the Shapefile
or for KML files whether or not displays labels should be exported for line and area features. Use
INC_LAYER_ATTR=YES to enable or INC_LAYER_ATTR=NO to disable. This is enabled by
default for Shapefile and MapInfo exports and disabled by KML.
• INC_MAP_NAME_ATTR (SHAPEFILE only) - specifies whether or not the name of the map file
that a feature came from should be added as an attribute to the DBF files exported with the Shapefile.
Use INC_MAP_NAME_ATTR=YES to enable.
• POLYGON_CROP_FILE - specifies the full path and filename of a vector file containing a polygon
feature to which the export should be cropped. If multiple polygons are found in the specified file the
polygon which has the largest intersection with the data to be exported will be used as the crop
polygon (see POLYGON_CROP_USE_ALL and POLYGON_CROP_USE_EACH for exceptions).
Note that line and area features will only be cropped to the bounds of the specified polygon. Point
features from some formats will actually be cropped to the specified polygon boundary.
