FAQ
DOL to MIF Conversion
What are DOL files?
The DOL image format is associated with DolphinEd, a currently obsolete drawing tool that could be used on Commodore 64 computers. This was one of the first types of PCs to gain wide popularity among home users, in the 1980s and early 1990s. In case you found a DOL image, it has probably been created a long time ago and the best way to try and open it is after you convert it to a more widely known format.
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.
