Orbit Vector File

An Orbit Vector File (*.ovf) is Orbit's native vector file storage format.
An OVF stores spatial objects (geometry) and attribute information.

An Orbit Vector File has extended data structure capabilities compared to an Esri Shape file : Vector dataset structure concepts.
It is a single file grouping both spatial and attribute component.

The OVF is optimized for fast editing of vector data in Orbit. The format is platform independent and as it a single file it simplifies data management.

• Create or Open, see Datasets & Dataset Lists
• Edit geometry, see Create & Edit Objects Overview
• Edit attributes, see Object Inspector

The resource can be accompanied by an Orbit Legend File and Orbit Resource Descriptor.
