FAQ
POL to WMF Conversion
What are POL files?
POL is the file of polygon features in the vector format of MiraMon, a geographic information system and remote sensing program developed in Catalonia by Xavier Pons. A polygon layer stores areas on a map, such as parcels, lakes, administrative districts, or land cover patches, with the descriptive data of each area, such as its name, code, or class, kept in a database table. What is special about MiraMon polygons is that they do not store their own outlines: each polygon is built from arcs that are kept in a separate .arc file, and neighboring polygons share the arcs along their common border. This guarantees that there are no gaps or overlaps between areas, and it allows analysis of which areas touch each other.
What are WMF files?
The WMF (Windows Metafile) format represents an image file with vector graphics, bitmap components or raster graphics, consisting mainly of drawing operations and commands. It was developed and released in the late 1980s by Microsoft and it included a 16-bit structure. In time WMF files were replaced by EMFs, featuring a 32-bit structure. WMFs are currently compatible with some programs from the Microsoft Office pack, such as Word, Power Point or Publisher.
