Powerful Data Access Advances

Access virtually every major format of geographic and business data — directly in MapInfo Professional.

• Direct access to ESRI formats (SHP, E00, SDE, Personal GeoDB) and CAD data (DWG, DXF, DGN)
• Expandable data access engine – add formats as needed

Save time, effort, the unnecessary duplication of data and the headaches around managing multiple data versions. Now, there is no waiting for a GIS department to send you data or do your analysis for you.

• An analyst with the police department performs crime hot spot analysis accessing street data from her city’s database
• An insurance risk manager pulls in hurricane data from a MS SQL database to understand exposure to future events
• A communications engineer overlays CAD drawings of system infrastructure when choosing the location for items such as cell towers and wireline signal amplifiers

Better Visualization

Often, you need to share your analysis with others. And this means you need to make easy-to-understand and readable maps. Now you can leverage curved labeling, create and re-use layout templates that best meet your needs and use an increased number of fonts to get the look you want.
