GeoMedia® Grid

GeoMedia Grid provides seamless integration of vector and grid data formats for viewing and analysis. For example, most databases of urban features, such as street centre lines, building footprints, utilities, and jurisdictional boundaries, use the vector point-line-polygon representation. However, the grid format can be used to augment these representations by extracting new information, thereby allowing users to better understand spatial relationships. With GeoMedia Grid, users can take advantage of the strengths of both data formats without having to worry about data conversion and translation issues, allowing users to easily apply analysis and modeling techniques that best suit specific needs.

GeoMedia Grid is ideally suited for carrying out complex spatial analysis such as Site Location (locating the best site), Corridor Planning (finding best path between multiple locations), and Hot Spot Detection (spatial clustering of sparse points). Combining the strengths of vector GIS with the power of grid analysis tools, GeoMedia Grid will enable users to seamlessly apply grid workflows from within GeoMedia.


GeoMedia Grid includes a number of key features:

  • More than 45 Grid analysis commands
  • Fully customizable (access to every Grid object through Automation)
  • Integrated Grid editing facilities
  • Grid-to-feature class conversion
  • Feature class-to-grid conversion
  • Grid re-projection (support for all GeoMedia Projections and Datums)
  • Grid layer-to-warehouse attribute connectivity
  • 3D visualization (including free fly and flight path modes)
  • Grid layer Map Algebra through a map calculator
