A MapInfo virtual raster is a raster that can be loaded, displayed, and operated upon in MapInfo Pro just like any other raster format. The raster data is acquired or generated on-demand, at run time. The MapInfo Virtual Raster (MVR) is a simple XML file using the .MVR file extension that you can load in MapInfo Pro. As a result, this operation is fast, and you get a preview without generating an actual output Raster file. You see the results instantaneously on a mapper. This option is also available in the Batch mode.
In this version, we have added support for creating a MapInfo Virtual Raster for the following
processing tools:
- Resample
- Reproject
- Merge
See MapInfo Virtual Raster (MVR) Format and Raster Processing Tools for more details.
