Geomatics Systems Inc. has released this new tool for ArcGIS users. Grid Translator Pro (GTP) for ArcGIS translates a wide range of raster DEM formats (SRTM, GTOPO30, USGS SDTS, Erdas, Vertical Mapper, Geotiff, Idrisi, Surfer, etc.) easily for use in ArcGIS.
GTP for ArcGIS® opens all the functionalities of ArcGIS® to more than 38 raster formats including the formats of the major GIS industry products: Idrisi, Surfer, PCI, Erdas, Vertical Mapper, Geosoft and MapInfo. With GTP for ArcGIS®, the user can import seamlessly a GIF image, a SRTM dataset, a SPOT image or a Surfer grid within the same process and the same tool.
The import process is batch oriented allowing users to create ArcGIS® grids from multiple datasets and from a wide range of data formats using a single and unified user interface.
Whether you have a raster dataset produced by Surfer, Idrisi, PCI, Vertical Mapper, Geosoft or ENVI, a satellite image (SPOT, Radar, NOAA, NITF), a nautical chart (BSB), a bitmap image (GIF, Bitmap, Jpeg, PixMap), or a DEM (SRTM, SDTS, USGS DEM, GTOPO30, DTED); GTP for ArcGIS® will bring these data to ArcGIS® image format (Erdas Imagine) with few clicks.
Numerous Free DEM data resources are available on the Internet. Suggested DEM resources with data supported by GTP include:
