Importing ESRI e00 format

I’m having trouble opening files from the Washington Department of Natural Resources which are in ESRI e00 format. The data is located here:
DNR GIS Data

I downloaded the Transportation by County for Mason County. I tried opening the zip file as well as the individual unzipped files. The Mason county mason_trans.e00 file would open, but did not have useful road identification info. GM reported that do data could be loaded from the trans-road.e00 file or the trans-rte.e00 file. It looks like the latter two files have the attribute information. Same result for Jefferson Co.

I’m using Global Mapper 9.03 build May 23, 2008. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Perry

    Perry,

    I took a look and you are correct, the trans-road.e00 and trans-rte.e00 files are attribute only files that do not contain any spatial data. Global Mapper does not currently have any way to join the attributes from a separate attribute-only .e00 file to another .e00 file containing spatial data. You would first have to merge the files in Arc and export a single new file before Global Mapper could get at that spatial data.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    Mike
