Maptitude for Redistricting Training in Newton MA |
Maptitude for Redistricting training courses
take place on a regular basis at Caliper
headquarters in Newton, MA. (Newton is a suburb
of Boston.) The next training is scheduled for
February 15-17, 2011. Space is
limited, and the classes fill up quickly.
This three-day intensive course covers all
of the redistricting features of the software.
You will also learn most of the key Maptitude
features that are useful when building plans
including map creation, labels, themes, styles,
freehand drawing tools, autoscale, data
manipulation, printing maps and plans, selection
sets, geocoding incumbents, combining race data
using formula fields, statistics, geographic
editing, joining political data to the
geography, and disaggregating and aggregating
data to other geographic layers. |

Unhappy with Your Redistricting Software? Switch
to Maptitude for Redistricting |
|
Soon after the new PL 94-171 data started
flowing from Census, we began to get calls from
organizations unhappy with their choice of
redistricting software and wanting to switch to
Maptitude for Redistricting. If you are having
trouble building your data layers, are
experiencing software crashes, or find the
manual unintelligible, we'll switch you to
Maptitude for Redistricting or Maptitude for
Redistricting Extension for ArcGIS literally
overnight. We have the new PL data merged with
the new TIGER ready for every state. The
software comes with detailed step-by-step,
illustrated manuals, and we offer a range of
training options. |
