A new Mapcontrol has been implemented in DelftShell based on te opensource project SharpMap. The functionality of this map is currently based on requirements for Sobek Flow. This means it supports reading of Shapefiles and it has support for network editing.
Applications belonging to DelftShell such as Habitat and Verkenner have additional requirements for map functionality. Based on a talk between Marjolijn Haasnoot, Arno Nolte and Onno van Logchem a list of requirements (for fileformats and display functionality) was made and it is represented in the tables below. Please add missing items if you can think of any.

Conversion tools have been produced by Lou Verhage to convert D3D WAQ output to maps that can be used by pcraster.
Conversion tool available from JanJaap for ASC to BIL and BIL to ASC
MAP files from PCRaster can be converterd to ASC (and then to BIL and NETCDF?)
Matlab / McTools hosts many post-processing, conversion and plotting routines. Perhaps some of this can be used as well.
Wich files can be converted to NETCDF?
