Dear all,
I was about to try to draw a map of about 100,000 axiallines to be processed
on axman when I read Alan's message, is this limit for processing only or
also for display? and it is only processing do you think that Orange box can
handle more than 32,000??
Also how can I get information about Ovation software? and can someone
direct me to information on the use of space syntax in the field of GIS and
the opposite?
Thanks,
Mohamed Salheen
