  • Put a Map in It

    MapInfo MapXtreme is a mapping application server for your Intranet or Extranet that developers can implement quickly and inexpensively. It enables companies to visualize their data on a map to discover new relationships and trends that otherwise would not be apparent. Leading companies use mapping to make better decisions on where to market and sell, manage and protect physical assets, and transport products efficiently. MapXtreme offers powerful functionality for these applications, deployed cost-effectively on a company's Intranet.

    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.
