Satloc MapStar

Mapping and File Conversion

MapStar PC software enhances Satloc guidance systems through its mapping and file conversion capabilities. MapStar is a pre-application mapping and post-application log replay software. It allows you to view LOG, SWA, VRS, and SMS (MapStar file sets) and supports the following map underlay files: BMF, JOB, DXF, MIF, PMH, SHP.

How It Works

MapStar allows you to display a variety of GIS-based file formats as background maps on Satloc guidance systems. MapStar also reads and displays Satloc log files so you can analyze and convert application data to GIS-based file formats. In addition, MapStar's new Vrate functionality converts shape files to prescription maps for use in Satloc's flow control enabled products.
