Maptitude® On-Line Training

Introductory Maptitude: Lesson 2

Maps

2.1 Map Basics: Map
Maptitude draws map using data from geographic files stored on your computer, CD-ROM, or file server. Each geographic file contains a number of map features.

When you open a geographic file, Maptitude creates a new map and displays features from the file. You can open geographic files directly from one of the Maptitude CDs, or from any hard disk or file server. You can also use Create-a-Map Wizard™ to automatically select the appropriate geographic files to display an area of your choosing, or use the Map Librarian to show one or more maps based on a marker.
