MapInfo GBPro200

GBPro200 is MapInfo's premium 1:200,000 scale map product designed for applications and users who require detailed information on Great Britain, but who do not need extensive and costly street level data. Over 60 layers of information are included, which combine to build a complete and multidimensional picture of Great Britain.

Over half of this layered data is indexed and searchable allowing users to locate almost any information that they need on an exact location such as a town, place of interest or geographic feature. Six gazetteer layers are provided, including a full gazetteer, for optimal presentation at any view.

The full gazetteer covers over 27,000 cities, towns and settlements across Great Britain and provides one comprehensive layer enabling quick and precise identification of the right location. With so much information available, each layer of data in GBPro200 has been carefully prepared using unique symbols, colours and styles so it is easily discerned from other layers. And, all of this is clearly listed in one key table that users can access at any time. An easy to use MapInfo workspace lets you get up and running quickly and ensures your map data is presented well. It automatically manages the data you choose so each data layer is displayed and labelled at an optimal zoom range.

If you want, you can choose to customise the workspace to create your own unique look.

MapInfo GBPro500

MapInfo GBPro500 is an entry level version. It offers the same 1:200,000 scale but only with features normally associated with a 1:500,000 scale map. It makes an ideal, cost effective, alternative for users who need just enough spatial information on Great Britain to create overviews that enable location-based applications on the desktop, the intranet or the Internet.

MapInfo GBPro500 incorporates 28 layers of information, the majority of which is searchable. Five gazetteer layers are provided for optimal presentation at any view. A comprehensive gazetteer of nearly 14,000 cities and towns is included for use in finding locations. GBPro500 shares GBPro200's same high attention to helping users use and understand multiple layers of data plotted on a map. Each data layer has its own unique look and feel so you always know what you are looking at, while the MapInfo workspace automatically displays data to best zoom settings for the most stunning presentation or lets you customise the workspace.
