Post by: therock003 on March 24, 2009, 03:33:13 PM

I have some scanned Maps on raster format and i need to find the way to remove the grid from theraster image. How can i do this with a few clicks?  :|

IDELSMART might help you a bit, but a few clicks?  Good luck!  :)


Edit:  I just tried it and found that they've improved the functionality of it since I last tried it.  (2004)

The Coordinate Grid. The file is a .tiff file and it is georeferenced. Basically i need to vectorize it, but the grid makes it difficult, cause polyline follwer follws the grid when it intersects with other geomtric properties.

you will need to do a better job of guiding Raster Design.
Or use an image editing application to select those grid line pixels and somehow neutralize them.
Or, why not get a DEM or other for your area, and build your surface contours from that?
The data you are after may be available in other formats....
