KEY FEATURES
Data access
MapInfo Professional® provides built-in support to access and view a
variety of data formats directly. This means you will be able to view
your Microsoft Excel®, Microsoft Access® or database data such as
Oracle®, Microsoft® SQL Server as well as many other file formats
directly out of the box. You can also view images of virtually any
format. This capability ensures that MapInfo Professional® will fit into
your current IT structure directly with no additional cost.
Data creation & editing
MapInfo Professional® provides many CAD data creation and editing
tools as well as the ability to edit your tabular data such as values
and names. This means you don’t have to switch between applications.
Make all your changes for maps and data in one application and save time
and effort.
Display
Map display options are one of the great strengths of MapInfo
Professional®. You can instantly shade/change style or mark territories
(using any symbol, graduated symbols, charts or graphs), boundaries,
highways, fiber lines or points based on any tabular data values through
a simple wizard. You can also aggregate values using statistical or any
math functions to associate a symbol or a color to a point or a region
based on a calculated value. For example, shade the sales territories
based on number of customers. Trends based on geography reveal
themselves, patterns become clear and better decisions with impact are
imminent.

information itself. In today’s IT environment, the need to have multiple
publishing options is critical to meaningful communication between

this purpose. From the ability to export data to any format, to
publishing large maps with legends and charts, MapInfo Professional®
