Chris24 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 I just got an ESRI TIN dataset (technically it's a folder containing 8 files all ending on *.adf) but I am unable to open it in SMS? Is there a way to import an ESRI TIN?thankschris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Jones Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 You can get these into SMS but not directly. To get it into SMS:1. Use the ESRI toolbox to convert this data to a 3D shapefile. I can't remember which tool it is off-hand.2. Load the 3D shapefile into SMS.3. Select the menu item "Mapping | Polygons -> TIN"I just got an ESRI TIN dataset (technically it's a folder containing 8 files all ending on *.adf) but I am unable to open it in SMS?
