Urbano 9 Raster/Vector

What is Urbano 9 Raster/Vector?

URBAN 9 RASTERVECTOR FEATURES

Grouping

When there are many external documents (raster images, vector drawings, among others.), it is very useful to create groups of documents. Groups can be created based on any criteria, for example raster images can be divided by scale, source or location; vector drawings can be grouped according to content (plots, infrastructure, DTM elements, among others) or position. Grouping files makes it easy to manage and choose the appropriate ones, depending on the current task at hand.

Connecting raster images with Urban 9 RasterVector

To connect a raster image to a project, you need to position the image according to its insertion parameters. You can read the insertion parameters of an external file (TFW, JGW) or directly from within the files (ECW, GeoTIFF). Urbano has a proprietary algorithm to read this information.

Drawing boundaries

Inserting many raster images or drawings and working with them in real time can be a time-consuming task that also requires a significant amount of computing resources. Therefore, it can be very useful to draw only the boundaries of the attached files with the name of the raster image or drawing file. This function allows you to set these limits very quickly and avoid consuming too many computer resources, even if you have several thousand files.

Inserting

You can choose different methods to insert files into a project with Urbano 9 RasterVector. The simplest method is to choose a point at which a particular file (raster or drawing) should be inserted. You can draw a line or polygon and any file boundaries you cross will be inserted. When inserting drawings within a defined polygon, you can choose whether to attach the entire file or just the entities that are inside or crossed with a defined boundary. Finally, you can zoom in on a particular part of the project and cover the entire view with files from the current collection.

Attaching drawings

You can attach drawings in two ways: as an external reference (XREF) or as a basic drawing (a CAD block). You can also create file collections from the DGN and PDF file types. These files can be attached only as external references.

Content filtering

With Urbano 9 RasterVector when attaching files, you can use content filtering, for example, you can filter attached files based on layer type or entity. This function is not available to attach as an external reference (XREF).
