FAQ
THF to EMF Conversion
What are THF files?
THF is the main file of a package in EDIGEO, the French standard for exchanging digital geographic data, and it is best known from the French cadastral plan, the digital map of land parcels that the tax administration makes available for every commune. A single EDIGEO delivery is made of several files with the same base name, and the THF file is the one that stands at the top: it describes the transfer as a whole and tells which other files belong to it. By itself it holds no map, and the parcels, buildings, and boundaries are in the other files of the package. Such packages are published openly for the whole of France and are widely used to produce local maps and to import cadastral data into other systems.
What are EMF files?
EMF (Enhanced Metafile) is a format used by the Windows operating system to store spooling information connected to printing. The term "spooling" comes from the acronym for "simultaneous peripheral operations online" and represents the creation of a list of tasks scheduled for completion by Windows at a later time. EMF files can contain vector or bitmap components and they replaced the original WMF (Windows Metafile) format, using a 32-bit structure instead of a 16-bit one and thus providing better quality of printing.
