MapLink Studio Filters
MapLink Studio filters can be thought of as native geospatial format drivers that provide file parsing capabilities to MapLink Studio. Your solution requires the filters appropriate for your native geospatial formats, if you need to pre-process your geospatial data in MapLink Studio.
Because MapLink Studio is only currently supported on Windows, all filters are also supported on Windows only.
