Description
Type is "GML" for GML files.
MapInfo Pro supports importing OSGB (Ordnance Survey of Great Britain) GML files. Cartographic Symbol, Topographic Point, Topographic Line, Topographic Area, and Boundary Line are supported; Cartographic Text is not supported. Topographic Area can be distributed in two forms; MapInfo Pro supports the non-topological form. If the files contains XLINKS, MapInfo Pro only imports attribute data, and does not import spatial objects. These XLINKs are stored in the GML file as "xlink:href=". If topological objects are included in the file, a warning displays indicating that spatial objects cannot be imported. Access the Browser view to see the display of attribute data.
Example
Sample importing using GML style:
Import "D:\midata\GML\est.gml" Type "GML" layer "LandformArea" style auto
on Into "D:\midata\GML\est_LandformArea.TAB" Overwrite
