MBFS to SHP Conversion
What are MBFS files?
MBFS is an image file format created or edited using a Stardent graphics workstation. Stardent Inc. was formed in the late 1980s from the merger of Ardent Computer Corp. and Stellar Computer Inc. The company became well known in the manufacturing of computer graphic workstations in the early 1990s, but sales declined in time, especially due to competition by larger brands such as IBM or HP. Stardent ceased to exist in mid-1990s.
What are SHP files?
The SHP (Shapefile) format stores vector files compatible with various Geographical Information System (GIS) software. SHP was developed by the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), an American provider of GIS software and geodatabase management solutions, with the aim of improving interoperability between GIS software produced by ESRI and other developers. An SHP file usually contains vectorial descriptions of geospatial data (e.g. rivers, lakes), including specific attributes.
