This update applies to the default feature type to help visually differentiate vector layers that may otherwise be similar.

Global Mapper uses feature types as one method of applying preset styles to vector layers.

To help visually distinguish overlapping or similar layers, a new autostyling option is available to assign colors by default to vector features of the Unknown Feature type. “These improvements allow watershed creation to consider vector feature obstructions and add the ability to optimize the placement of flattened site plan terrain creation.” “User interface updates for enhanced support of high-resolution display and Analysis menu reorganization in Global Mapper version 25 accompany some highly requested analysis tool updates,” stated Mackenzie Mills, Assistant Product Manager. Version 25 pushes this tool even further by adding support for vector features to be used as obstructions or modifications to more accurately model how potential objects impact flow. Global Mapper’s Watershed tool performs a watershed analysis to model the flow of water across a terrain layer, measuring flow accumulation and direction and delineating watershed boundaries. Global Mapper assesses the terrain in a specified location to find the optimal placement and orientation for the site to minimize cut and fill costs. A new option in the tool, Create an Optimal Flattened Site Plan, can take advantage of any flexibility in the exact placement and orientation of the flattened site.

The Create a Flattened Site Plan tool is popular for preplanning the best location, elevation, and required earthworks for the creation of a flat surface in a terrain layer. This update includes an additional functionality to the Calculate Flattened site plan tool, an automatic feature styling for distinguishing loaded vector layers, the ability to use vector layers in watershed generation, and an improved screen and menu display.

Blue Marble Geographics is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the standard version of Global Mapper version 25.
