Hello,
I have just registered to this forum today and I'm still a beginner with the globalmapper software.
My current challenge is to find a possibility to import GEOJSON data into GM. I don't think GM supports this format, however does anybody know a software tool to convert it into a format GM can read ?

Thank you for your help

    We now have support for GeoJSON import and export in Global Mapper. I have placed a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper13.zip with the change for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v13.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit v13 version there is a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper13_64bit.zip .

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,

    I cannot make this GeoJson file work, it makes me an error...session_14.zip
    Any idea why? This file has been generated by a software I use.

    Can anything other than the software that you are generating it with read it back in? We use a standard open source library (part of OGR) to load GeoJSON and it is not finding anything that it can load in the file.

    Well, no...I didn't try but yes it can come from the file format... But I was hoping to get a clue to debug and change something by hands in the file... I will try to look at your library...
