Easy Digitizer 1.2 for Windows 9x/NT/2k is a digitizer
for points, polylines and azimuth angles in digital images
==========================================================

Easy Digitizer is a digitizer for points, polylines and 
azimuth angles in digital images with an equidistant 
equatorial or flat map projection without distortion. 
It computes, displays and stores coordinates of scanned 
maps, plans, drawings, etc. Digitizing is done by left 
clicks when moving the mouse over an image. Data is stored 
in a text file which can be easily imported into MS Excel 
or another spreadsheet program for further processing.

The easiest way to start using this program is to open 
an image in folder \Images\Examples\ by selecting 
"File/Open...". Then you can see the required settings 
for an image like its width, height and position.
In this folder you find also ready examples to compute
surface areas and container volumes using Excel files.

Points and polylines are digitized by Ongoing(!) Left Clicks 
in an image. Only the 1. point in a sequence requires an ID 
in the Data Input window. Click only on OK in this window to 
finsih a sequence of points, a polyline or an azimuth angle.

Easy Digitizer comes with several example images so that 
a user can easily test the different digitizer modes. 
These modes to be chosen are:
1. Digitize New Polyline,
2. Digitize Last Polyline,
3. Digitize Azimuth Angle,
4. Digitize Single Point.

And the following options can be selected:
* Point Numbers On/Off in the digital image,
* Drawing color in the digital image,
* Font size in the digital image,
* Name and location of data text file,
* Number of decimal places used for coordinates and angles,
* Names, sequence and unit of coordinates.

Fine tuning is done with arrow keys. Navigating inside of 
an image is done by using sliding bars, Home, End, PageUp or 
PageDown keys. The program includes several other features, 
such as zoom, undo and delete of last point, azimuth angle or 
polyline.
