FAQ
CSM to MIF Conversion
What are CSM files?
CSM is a file format associated with Character Studio, a 3D animation tool which is part of Autodesk's 3DS Max — one of the most popular software used for creating 3D models, animation and rendering. CSM files contain data related to the position of a 3D biped character, and can be used by professionals in the game developing industry, advertising, film etc.
What are MIF files?
MIF is the file with the shapes in MapInfo's interchange format, which stores map data as a pair of text files. In the .mif file are the points, lines, and areas of a map layer, written as readable text with their coordinates, colors, and line styles, while the attributes of these objects, such as names and numbers, are kept in the partner .mid file. MapInfo is a desktop GIS program widely used in business, telecommunications, and local government, and the MIF and MID pair is its open way of passing data to and from other programs, since it can be read and edited in any text editor. A MIF file needs its MID file with the same name to be complete.
