These instructions are based on Cadcorp SIS Desktop Express 9.0.2511 and assume you have set the default coordinate reference system to British National Grid (EPSG 27700). These instructions also work for the fully licenced version of Cadcorp SIS Desktop.
There are two ways to load the GML supply into Cadcorp SIS Desktop: You can use drag and drop or add and overlay.
To load and display the GML supply using drag and drop:
Open an existing project or create a new one.
In the file system on your computer system (for example, in Windows Explorer), select the GML data (.gz file).
Drag and drop the file directly into the Map area in Cadcorp SIS Desktop.
Data processing will begin automatically. You can monitor the progress by watching the spinning blue circle in the bottom left of the UI.
When processing is complete, the data will display in the Maps panel and Map area.
