ATLAS*GIS is a full-featured, geographic information system (GIS) for MSDOS-based PC's. It allows you to create up to 250 layers of geographic features (number of features is unlimited), complete with attribute data. Many geographic query functions are built into ATLAS*GIS, which can also match addresses and import and export many popular data formats. We also have many utilities to translate the geographic files into other useful formats, like ARC/INFO coverages and AutoCad DXF, as well as TIGER and DIME census formats. Educational and governmental discounts are available. Strategic Mapping also has a wide range of geographic boundary files available, and ATLAS*GIS supports direct digitizing of features, if you wish to create your own boundaries. Please feel free to call, write or e-mail for more information.
