MapInfo Pro Advanced allows you to align a raster based on the coordinates and pixel size of another raster.

  1. On the RASTER tab, in the Operations group, click Raster Operations and then click the Align button to open the Align dialog box.
  2. In the Input section, click the Input File drop-down list to choose the raster that you want to align. Click the Primary Raster drop-down list to choose the raster that you want to use as a reference raster.
  3. Select Override Cell Size if you want to use a specific cell size instead of primary raster's cell size. By default, the output raster will acquires the cell size of the primary raster. You can override this here.
  4. Specify a cell size in the New Cell Size box to override the default cell size. The New Cell Size box appears only when the Override Cell Size check-box is selected.
  5. Select a resample method from the Resample Method drop-down list.

    See Resample methods for more information.
