FAQ
ITF to HPG Conversion
What are ITF files?
ITF is a text file with geographic data in the INTERLIS 1 transfer format, a Swiss standard for passing data between land information systems. It is the delivery that goes together with a model file with the .ili extension: the model says what kinds of objects exist and what their attributes mean, and the ITF file holds the objects themselves, such as parcels, buildings, boundary lines, and survey points, with their coordinates and attributes. The format was created by the Swiss Federal Directorate for Cadastral Surveying in the 1990s and is still used for official surveying data in Switzerland. Because the data and the model are kept apart, one model can be used for many deliveries, and new deliveries are checked against it.
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.
