Method and question discussion on MapGIS 6.X and ArcGIS 9.2 space data conversion

Lin Zhang

Abstract

In this paper,based on analyses of data formats of the two systems between MapGIS 6.X and ArcGIS 9.2,advanced a basic idea,which is to convert the spatial data from MapGIS platform to ArcGIS platform,namely elements layered-standardized data standards-correction,projection transformation-maps metadata/notes data-ShapeFile-thematic map.Finally,the transformed result can be checked in ArcGIS 9.2 through the example of the validation data conversion,at the same time,carried on the summary about the existing problems in the process of data conversion.
