Subject: [gislist] Trouble viewing ADF file
Date:  10/20/2003 05:10:01 PM
From:  Michele Mattix




Hello Gis-Listers --

I just received a bunch of data for a new project and I'm having trouble
with viewing an ADF file.

I'm using ArcGIS 8.3. The data came as an E00 file (called topo.e00 --
allegedly it is a 10 meter DEM dataset) which I imported to a coverage
using ArcToolbox. It created a single file called topo.adf, as well as two
subdirectories -- one called INFO (which contains 5 files all begining with
"arc" and with various extensions including .nit, .dat, and .dir), the
other called TOPO (which contains 4 files all with .adf extension).

When I use ArcCatalog, the grid icon appears beside the file called "topo"
but when I try to preview it, I cannot. In fact, I am unable to view any
information about it at all. Neither can I add the data to my ArcMap
document.

What could be the problem and how the heck do I fix it?

Thanks,
Michele
