thanks a lot for your response about the configuration file. I'm trying to build the solution with Visual Studio 2020 (step 11). However, during the building procedure, it gives an error as follows: " Error MSB8041 MFC libraries are required for this project. Install them from the Visual Studio installer (Individual Components tab) for any toolsets and architectures being used." I tried to install the latest version of MFC libraries, but still, nothing changed and I has the same error during the building procedure. It will be very appreciated if I can get help with building the software.

I use at the moment following Visual Studio: Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2019 Version 16.11.11

From Visual Studio Installer tool you should have these two packages installed: C++ ATL for latest v142 build tools (x86 & x64) C++ MFC for latest v142 build tools (x86 & x64) See image below: image

thanks a lot for your precious guidance. using the mentioned packages I was able to successfully build the project and I am very appreciated. However, when I'm trying to run the "SmartMet.exe" file, it gives the following error in the attached picture:

Capture

any idea about how I can pass this final step and run the program? thanks a lot

agx.zip That file is now in the zip file. You should unzip it into smartmet-workstation_msvc\runtime_output\Debug and RelWithDebInfo directories. It should start then.

Problem after that is that good and fast isoline/colour-contour visualizations won't work unless you purchase a agx Uniras ToolMaster license for your PC. When this license is missing SmartMet will be using system that produces rather slow, crude and which is lacking many features (on map view visualizations). And also do you have access to queryData files?

thanks a lot for your precious response. I don't know how to access to queryData, I'm just starting to install the program, and then get access to the database. is it a mandatory step in order to load data in the software?
