How to open .DEM files on Qt Creator

[Emanuele]

Hi,

how can I open and view a file .DEM on Qt creator in c++? There is a library?

Tnx

Do you want to open and edit a .dem file in Qt Creator or do you want to write a program in Qt Creator that reads/writes a .dem file?

Hi,

I want to write a program in Qt Creator that reads a .dem file and displays the map that contains.
I didn't understand how I can do it. I believe there is a library to view these maps but I can't understand what and how.

Tnx
Emanuele

Ok, then it is not an issue of Qt Creator:-)

Go to your search engine of choice and try to find a library. Since there are several applications out there that produce .dem files, it is impossible to give a more specific answer to your question.

Ooooohh :(, but aren't the DEM (digital elevation model) files a standard?
How can I view them now? Do you have any idea?
I was glad I found the maps to make this app :( ... ooo I'm sad :(

Tnx again

The good things about standards are that there are so many to choose from...

Seriously: "Digital Elevation Model" might or might not be a standard, I have no idea. The first link I found looking for "dem file" was this one: http://filext.com/file-extension/DEM and it does not even list digital elevation mode. That is what you get for visiting random sites on the internet:-)

Google shows some promising links when asked about "digital elevation model c++", but since I never heard of that format before (I am not into mapping, so that does not say much;-), I can not really recommend anything. Sorry.

I will continue to search for information on google, but so far I have not found much, I hope to succeed.

Thank you sooo much for your answers :) :) :)

(and sorry for my english, I'm working there ;) :) )

Tnx again
