The XMap team at DeLorme is pleased to announce that the XMap 7 suite is now available. Over the last several months, the software design, development, and testing groups have been working long hours to craft what we feel is the most significant upgrade to the XMap product suite to date.
As with all previous XMap releases, much of the impetus behind the new feature list can be attributed to current XMap customers and users. You asked for more powerful field data collection, we developed XMap Forms for laptop- or GPS-based information gathering; you asked for a world base map, we created the first seamless, consistent, global vector dataset; you asked for improved interoperability between XMap and the handheld Earthmate PN-40 GPS receiver, we redesigned the map cutting process and provided direct exchange of GIS layers with the device; and much more.
November’s DeLorme Professional Newsletter comes after a short hiatus during which all available hands, including those of the marketing and sales team, were assigned to the XMap 7 development and release process. Now that the newsletter is back, we’re delighted to be able to share some of the details of the XMap 7 suite. Read on to find out about several significant new features and improvements to some of XMap’s core functionality and you could even win your own Earthmate PN-40 GPS receiver and a copy of XMap 7 Professional.
