Map Filename Type

A Map Filename is a filename referring to a map file on disk. The file's format is automatically selected based on the filename's extension, and if no path is given, the file is located relative to the model script.

The map filename editor presents a file browser for selecting the target map file, or typing its path directly.

A Map Filename constant is written in EGO Script the same way as a String literal, enclosed in double quotes — see Constants for the general filename validation rules:

"c:/data/landscape.tif"
