OS Land-Form Panorama Contours in DXF Converter
The Land-Forma Panorama Contour data available free as OS Opendata is only in DXF format. This does not alway import correctly into GIS programs so use this free program to convert the DXF data into MapInfo Import Format (MIF/MID) or Shapefiles. Grid lines are optional and the marginalia is not converted so the data will tile seamlessly.
