Trying to import a map (single DRG) from toppoview nsw and come up with error INVALID FLOATING POINT OPERATION. Press ok then get another error CANNOT FIND GEOREFERENCEDATA. I can view the map with irfan view but is the only one I cant load to oziexplorer. Any help appreciated and as some wag said before "dont be afraid to dumb it down".

No need to import map calibration data using the import function in OziE (and possibly not do it right)

Download calibration files (*.map) from here..

If everything else is OK them this should work..if not...then obviously some other issue..like the quality of my advice:)

Cheers

Also check you have the MrSid Image Loading Support File
To use the MrSID image format this dll is required.
Download MrSID dll from Utilities page at the Ozi website (www.oziexplorer.com)

Other info from this page FYI....
This dll file should be placed in the folder where the OziExplorer program was installed. It needs to be with the "oziexp.exe" program file.

NOTE - The MrSid dll file will not work with version 3.90.3a (or earlier) of OziExplorer, it will only work with release version 3.95 (or later) and development versions 3.90.3b (or later).

Using MrSID Image Files

The SID image files are usually supplied with a .SDW file which contains basic geo-reference information. If you have this file you can import the image using the "File / Import Map / All DRG maps on CD" menu option. The geo-reference information will be read from the .sdw file and used to create a .map file which is then opened in OziExplorer using the Load Map option on the Load menu.
If there is no .sdw file then the image will need to be opened using the "Load and Calibrate Map Image" option on the File menu and the image calibrated manually.

Cheers Greg
