Who Should Use MapXtreme?
|
|
MapXtreme is a mapping application server for companies who recognize that data
visualization and mapping can help them make better business decisions and manage assets
and operations more effectively. Developers in these companies can now access the
latest Internet and mapping technology to deploy spatial information to larger
numbers through their corporate Intranet at lower costs than ever before.

|
Why Mapping On Your Intranet?
|
|
Applications running on a managed server network offer lower hardware and
administrative costs while dramatically improving application performance,
reliability and security. Because MapXtreme leverages the ease of use and
efficiency of Internet technology, companies who once found mapping cost
prohibitive can now offer it throughout their organizations at a lower cost
per user than in the past.

What Are the Benefits of MapXtreme?
|
|
Cost Effective Deployment
Central management of data and software on the server keeps administrative
and per-user costs low. For superior performance, centralization, and security,
MapXtreme is compatible with MapInfo SpatialWare® a powerful spatial data
storage product that allows organizations to store map data in their central RDBMS.
Rapid Application Development
MapXtreme comes complete with everything the application developer needs to get
mapping up and running on an organization's Intranet. And MapXtreme is fully scalable --
as demand for the application grows, the company can
simply add servers to support additional users.
hahtsite from Haht Software
MapXtreme combines MapInfo's high-powered mapping engine, MapX®, with hahtsite
for a completely integrated, pre-packaged web solution. HAHT's application server,
Web site development and publishing
tools provide developers with a complete set of integrated tools
to create applications quicker and easier. Additionally, the inclusion of hahtsite
with MapXtreme eliminates the need to purchase a
Web application development environment to build your application.
Compatible with all Web Servers and Web Browsers
MapXtreme's open architecture works with any web server and takes advantage of
ISAPI, NSAPI, or CGI gateways. In addition, MapXtreme has no proprietary plug-ins,
so it delivers maps to any web browser on a PC or
UNIX® workstation.
Robust Mapping Functionality
MapXtreme provides a comprehensive list of powerful mapping functions to meet
the needs of your solution including: spatial server access, thematic mapping,
buffering, object (map) editing, draw layer, find, native access to Lotus Notes
and Domino compatibility, map display, layer control, spatial selections,
geocoding, extensive data base binding and sample data.

MapXtreme mapping functionality includes:
|
|
- Spatial Server Access (SSA) is a powerful new feature that allows developers
to connect to live data stored in spatial servers like MapInfo's SpatialWare
running on Oracle® and Informix®
databases. Spatial servers like SpatialWare allows companies to host their map
data like any other data type in their enterprise database for greater processing
power, storage and security.
- Thematic mapping for assigning display value ranges using several methods
including shading, graduated symbol, individual value, dot density, pie charts
and bar charts.
- Object Processing to combine, buffer, intersect,
or erase objects like points, lines and polygons, and return resulting data.
- Object Editing to create, modify, or delete objects from a map.
- Draw Layer allows developers to draw their own objects on a map, like
a distance scale or vectors that represent magnitude
and direction of an antenna's transmission.
- Find allows users to quickly display a specific spot on the map like a state,
ZIP Code®, city, street, or customer (note: this does not append Lat/Long to a record as
with geocoding).
- Layer control allows users to manage multiple layers
of geographic information, such as data layer colors, zoom layering, visibility,
and label styles.
- Spatial selections allow users to select and work
with spatial data at a specified location, within a rectangle, within a given
radius, and within a polygon (such as a State).
- Geocoding lets users place locations -- such as customers -- on a map to the
level of ZIP Code centroids. MapInfo's U.S. street-level geocoding tool,
MapMarker®, is also available for tight integration with MapXtreme.
- Database binding supports popular data interfaces
used in business applications, including ODBC, DAO, ClipBoard
and OLE Data interfaces.
