Technical note

What changes when you convert GRC to HPG

Geospatial coordinates are absolute positions on the earth, and they are large: a projected easting runs to six or seven digits, while latitude and longitude are small decimals. HPG expects a drawing laid out near its own origin in millimetres or inches. The geometry itself converts correctly, but it can land tens of kilometres from 0,0, or arrive at a scale where an entire county is forty units across. Zoom to extents first, then measure one known distance before dimensioning anything. A GRC file has a pixel count and a DPI value, and no real-world size at all. HPG is a drawing where one unit means one millimetre or one inch, so the conversion has to assign a scale. Set the DPI before the run rather than resizing afterwards, then measure one feature of known length in the output and scale the drawing once to match it. Everything downstream, from dimensioning to cutting, rests on that single check.

Map Data Workflow

Turn GIS data into something anyone can open

A map saved as HPG opens on any computer and any phone. reaConverter produces those from GRC in batch, entirely offline.

  • Render every file in a folder to HPG with the same size and settings
  • Set DPI and output dimensions before the run, not afterwards
  • Pick up new data automatically with Watch Folders, or script the job from the command line

Everything runs on your PC, which matters for cadastral, utility and client data that should not pass through an upload form.

FAQ

GRC to HPG Conversion

What are GRC files?

GRC is the classified grid format of Vertical Mapper, a spatial analysis add-on originally created by Northwood Geoscience in Canada and later acquired by MapInfo. A file of this type is a map made of equal cells, and each cell carries a category rather than a measurement, for example a land use class, a soil type, or a signal strength range. The category names and colors are stored with the map, so it can be displayed immediately. Its numeric counterpart, the .grd file, stores smoothly varying values such as elevation. The GRC format is widely used for mobile network planning, where coverage predictions around cell towers are saved as classified grids, and it is also used in mapping, environmental analysis, and land management.

What are HPG files?

HPG is a vector image format created in a standard programming language called HPGL (Hewlett-Packard graphics language). Other extensions created in this language include PLT, HP2 and PL2. All are called "plotter files" and are created by drawing programs such as AutoCAD to be printed using a device specialized in vector graphics. An HPG file uses a line series of two-letter codes to render an image and can also include parameters.
