[OSGeo-Discuss] TIN file formats

[Saber Razmjooei]

Hi Pierre,

Apologies for the late response.

The link was updated. If your TIN is small, you can use MDAL to read it. An
example of such data (ESRI ADF TIN) can be found here:
https://github.com/lutraconsulting/MDAL/blob/master/mdal/frmts/mdal_esri_tin.cpp

With MDAL/QGIS, you can also display vectoral data (e.g. slope direction in
http://files.carlsonsw.com/mirror/manuals/Carlson_2014/source/Site_Road_Design/Surface/Triangulate_amp_Contour/08tri_contour9.PNG
).

Hope this helps.

Kind regards
Saber
