FAQ
MTW to GBR Conversion
What are MTW files?
MTW is the matrix version of the Raster Matrix Format, a format of the GIS programs Panorama and Integration, used to store digital elevation models. A file of this type contains a grid in which every cell holds the height of the terrain, so that it can serve as the basis for relief maps, profiles, slope analysis, and three-dimensional views. Its sibling, the .rsw file, belongs to the same format family but holds ordinary pictures, such as scanned maps and aerial photographs. An MTW file also records how the values should be read, including the units, which can be meters, decimeters, centimeters, or millimeters, and whether the heights are absolute elevations. It also carries simple georeferencing, so that the grid can be placed on a map.
What are GBR files?
GBR is part of the Gerber group of formats — a set of standardized extensions used in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry. Gerber files include 2-D representations of various PCB images, such as copper layers, solder mask etc. They can also describe the electrical connections on such boards, or drilling and milling info associated with them. Similar formats include GBS, CMP and SOL.
