    Mapping Software

    Locked

    by inkling ·

    I’m looking for mapping software, something that will fit on a laptop, that will store ~350 points.

    The purpose is to store retail stores for the purpose of creating a route for distribution/sales calls.

    Budget is limited.

    Thanks in advance…

      Garmin e-trex and Naviteq

      The hand held Garmin has the Naviteq computer interface that will likely meet your needs. I don’t know if the Naviteq interface is available separately from the GPS device. I believe that the e-Trex retails in the $250 range.

      I would avoid Streets and Maps as I found it to be less than correct.

      Have you considered Google Earth for this task?

        I’ll check those two out.

        I actually found a trial copy of Microsoft MapPoint laying around, but I’m having issues with it.

      Used to use Delorme Street Atlas when I had my own truck

      At one point I had 18 months worth of deliveries bulleted. Worked great with a cheap GPS unit.

      web based mapping software

      I am not sure if this would help, but try this site:

      http://www.spilerconsulting.com/services/geographic-information-system/

      we develop many kinds of GIS (geographic information systems) maybe the web map + a layer with the information you want to display would be enought.

      best,
      Iv?n.
