SMS:Mesh to Map
The Mesh -> Map command in the data menu (mesh module) is used to convert mesh data into feature data (map module). This can be useful for creating a conceptual model from an existing numeric model. The Mesh -> Map command converts the mesh data and places it in the active coverage. If you want the new data in a new coverage, click on the Create New Coverage button to create a new coverage and make it active.
Material Regions -> Polygons
This option converts the materials in the current mesh into polygons in the map module. If the coverage supports materials (area property or most mesh model coverages support this), the polygons will have attributes reflecting the correct material values.
Mesh Boundaries -> Polygons
This option converts the current mesh boundaries into polygons in the map module.
Mesh Contours -> Arcs
This option creates an arc at a specific contour value (based upon the active dataset). It is not necessary for the value to be associated with a displayed contour line as SMS will determine where the line would be if it existed.
Mesh Nodestrings -> Arcs
This option creates an arc for each nodestring in the mesh.
