The Meta Data tab provides access to historical information relating to the creation of the grid and is
carried as a header string within the grid file. It includes important information such as the name of
the original data file from which the grid was derived, the method of grid interpolation used to create
it, including the interpolation settings, a date and time stamp of the original build, and the identity of
the builder (if available). Additional information can be appended using the Alter Meta Data
command accessible from the Tools menu in the Grid Manager. For more information, see
Using
the Alter Meta Data Tool on page 140 .
Note If only one grid has been opened in MapInfo Professional, you may have to click on that grid
in the Grid Manager to view the meta data.
The Legend tab displays the colour inflection values that define the gradient colour scheme of the
grid. These are the same values that are assigned in the Grid Colour Tool and appear as defaults in
the Legend Generator. If you query a classified grid file, the legend window displays the default
colour values applied to each class found in the grid.
