Powerful ability to migrate attributes

Coincident visualization of multiple data sets in space and time is exciting and powerful, but even more powerful is the ability to migrate attributes from one dataset to another. Eonfusion provides this ability through vector fusion and raster attribute transfer.

Vector fusion allows vector data sets to be fused together, resulting in a combined superset of their vertices. Vertices in the superset are linked to their dataset of origin, allowing attributes to be copied forward to the new dataset. This is far more powerful and more general than the traditional overlay and merge operations.

Raster attribute transfer allows attributes to be migrated from rasters onto the vertices of vector data. This transfer applies in space and time, so that an attribute from a time series of rasters can be transferred to points that are moving in time. What could otherwise be a huge programming challenge is a single-step operation in Eonfusion.
