Windsor, UK - 3rd June, 2009- Pitney Bowes Business Insight, the leading global provider of location and communication intelligence solutions, today unveiled MapInfo Professional® v10.0, the latest version of the company's flagship application for business mapping and analysis. With more than 80 percent of corporate data including a location component, MapInfo Professional provides organisations with the ability to visualise and analyse information to secure valuable insights and tremendous advantages over their competitors, which is critical in today's economic environment.
A powerful and user-friendly mapping and location analysis application, MapInfo Professional 10.0 now includes a redesigned intuitive user interface, access to PostGIS, an open source database, and a built-in support for Layered PDF generation. The end result is a cost-effective solution that enables organisations to gain optimal value from their data when making decisions about managing inventory, allocating resources and communicating with customers.
"MapInfo Professional is a truly ergonomic technology, and facilitating data access has always been its strong suit. So support of PostGIS in MapInfo Professional 10 will prove invaluable in joined-up working and the benefits which come from seamless collaboration," said John Shurvington, GIS Manager, Portsmouth City Council, one of a number of key customers involved in beta testing the new upgrade.
"The 'piece de resistence' in MapInfo Professional 10 for Portsmouth is, without doubt, Layered PDF support - it's simply life-changing! The ability to have a 'control centre' approach to maps; to look at layers as needed and to share files beyond MapInfo users is both invaluable and liberating. Further, the print to PDF function in MapInfo Professional 10 brings real mobility into play, allowing interactive access to the map layers by anyone who needs them.
"Overall, the advancements in usability in MapInfo Professional 10 go significantly further in delivering the definitive tool for location related tasks. PBBI has listened to our feedback and effectively integrated a number of important capabilities into MapInfo Professional 10.0 which are very welcome indeed!"
Benefits of MapInfo Professional 10.0 include:
o Greater Ease of Use - A more intuitive user interface and data sharing via layered PDF enables organisations to more easily and efficiently create and share customised maps, resulting in greater efficiency and time savings.
o Cost savings - MapInfo Professional 10.0 supports PostGIS, an open-source database, providing users with a cost-effective, open source alternative.
o Enhanced Data Access - Organisations can tap into even more data including Microsoft SQL Server 2008, giving users even greater flexibility and continuing access to multiple forms of data.
