Expand Cells

Determines how you want the cells to be expanded into separate features. The reader may be set to expand cells, so that each member element of the cell is read and output as a separate feature. By default, when you set this parameter, the cell insertion point itself is not output, but the insert points may still be read if you select the Preserve Unnamed Cells option.

In addition, the cell members are assigned a unique cell sequence number, igds_cell_sequence_number. This number can be used to later regroup the cell components if that is required.

If Expand Cells is not set, cell elements will be read as features with point geometry, representing the insertion points of the cells.

Coordinate Units

Specify the coordinate units of the features.
