Raster Updates



GTViewer, GTVx, and the GTV .NET Control all received upgrades to their raster functionality.
Updates to ER Mapper’s ECW file functionality include various enhancements and fixes as well as adding support for .ERS files (which provide header information in a simple ASCII format while pointing to a .ECW file).

JPEG 2000 support has also been added. A .jp2 file can now be included in a non-Category raster list or a Raster Category’s raster file list. The .ERS file can also be used to specify header information for a .jp2 file.

Including the LizardTech's MrSID format, the GTViewer family of products offers a wide range of Raster support making it easy to being in background imagery.

The screenshot above show the ER Mapper sample data composited with Country and State bounary shapes.

void TriggerGpsEvents()

- FIX - #120 - Overview map automatically suspends GPS updates.

- NEW - #119 - SuspendGps property added.

- NEW - #118 - A new method called GetSatelliteInfo was added to retrieve a list of current satellite information (azimuth, elevation, id, SNR).

- NEW - #117 - A new method called TriggerGpsEvents has been added to cause all GPS events to be fired with their last set of values. Since most GPS events are only fired when a value changes, this method is an easy way to get all of the event to fire without waiting for values to change to get the events.
