MapInfo Tab

The MapInfo Tab Data Store is available for Reading and Writing data in 1Integrate.

This Data Store is also available for use with FME. For more see MapInfo (FME).

Parameters

Read and Commit

Parameter	Description
Source Files Required: .tab, .dat, .map and .ind/.mid and .mif Zipped: .zip/.gz	Click the button and drag and drop the file anywhere or click to browse. All files must be zipped together for the upload.
Coordinate Reference System	This parameter can be used to specify a Coordinate Reference System (CRS) code of the input data. This will not re-project the data, but allows its current CRS to be defined (e.g to enable multiple data stores to open where one does not have a CRS defined). Note: Coordinate Reference System parameters are required in a session that will write data to Oracle. See Coordinate Reference System for more information on when this is required.
Allow invalid geometries	Allows features with invalid geometries (e.g. duplicate vertices, self-intersections) to be imported. This is necessary if they need to be imported in order to be validated or corrected. If not ticked then features with invalid geometries are not imported and are logged as feature errors in the open data task.
Enable full 3D geometries (BETA)	Select to enable full 3D geometries. Note: This parameter will only appear with an additional license enabling 3D support within 1Integrate. For more information on full 3D in 1Integrate, please see Full 3D Support.
Fix ring direction and inclusion errors	Polygon rings are assumed to be encoded using the right-hand rule, i.e. outer rings are anti-clockwise and inner rings are clockwise. If the service does not guarantee that encoding, then set this flag to have polygon rings automatically oriented on import to avoid later problems when processing the data. Note: This requires a small amount of additional processing so only set if the ring direction is not guaranteed.
Character Encoding	Controls which character encoding is used to interpret text attributes. If blank, the character encoding will be automatically detected.
Reverse coordinate axis order (y, x)	Reverse the x and y co-ordinate values. Select this if the coordinates are in (y,x) order and are not being read or written in the correct order.
Convert attribute names to upper case	If selected, attribute names will be converted to upper case.
Dissolve holes	If selected, dissolves adjacent holes in polygons.
Retain attribute order	Enable to retain the order of the attributes from your source data.This can be useful if the order is important at a later stage when performing a Commit or Copy-To Task e.g. some data standards may mandate the order in which attributes should appear.

Parameter	Description
Destination Files (.tab, .dat, .map, .id, .ind, .mif, .mid)	Results are available to download by clicking Download.
