Introduction
This page contains a brief introduction to the MapInfo software. A number of MapInfo tasks which are repeatedly used in creating a TUFLOW model are described below, each of these has a separate page.
MapInfo File Formats
A number of files with the same name but different extensions make up a MapInfo table. A brief description of the MapInfo file formats, in particular the MapInfo Interchange (.MIF and .MID) are provided here: MapInfo File Formats.
