|---|---|---|
| ArcGIS Explorer Map Format | ESRI | GIS Files |
The NMF file extension is associated with ArcGIS Explorer, a geographic information system (GIS) that allows users to find and analyze geographical data. This specialized file stores data found while exploring GIS domains allowing users to draw conclusion from insights of locations, visualize data patterns, as well as find correlations between different variables in a given area. When saved, an NMF file is created to store the explorer map files in a specific format ready to be used with the ArcGIS Explorer software.
Data Storage Format
The NMF file format is based on XML coding which makes it easy for other programs to read its data. An NMF file contains layers of data regarding a particular area such as roads, building outlines, elevation details, 3D buildings and much more geographical facts. Text details are also stored including legends, descriptions and annotation that go along with the map's layers.
Similar Formats
Similar file extensions include: IMG, SHP, KML, TAB, GML, and MIF/MID.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .NMF) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .NMF extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .NMF file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .NMF extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .NMF extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .NMF file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .NMF file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .NMF file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .NMF file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .NMF file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
