iMap 3 is a data visualisation tool designed to map large amounts of latitude/longitude data (or US ZIPcodes). iMap imports data from databases or spreadsheets and maps it onto image or vector maps. Database queries can be used to map only a subset of the data or to filter the data for a certain criterion. iMap is extremely expandable: it offers a plugin format enabling anyone to extend its functionality. Maps can be exported as high quality PDF files for cross-platform viewing. Whether you are outlining marketing strategies, defining sales territories, tracking population trends, or visualizing ecological distributions, iMap offers a flexible and affordable solution.
Import databases or spreadsheets
iMap 3 seamlessly integrates with databases and spreadsheets: it can import FileMaker databases or Excel spreadsheets, preserving all information. One major advantage of this approach is that you can use all available information to query the map or analyze your data. iMap can also export the data back to any database or spreadsheet using tab delimited text.
Unlimited maps. Available now.
A huge number of .e00 and boundary files are available for free on the Internet. iMap 3 can now use these file formats as base maps to use with your data. Not only are these files easy to find, they are also easy to use: because they are vector based, they don't require calibration and they look good at any magnification. Vector maps are very suited for use in printed publications. For more information on obtaining vector maps, see the iMap 3 online help (available in the Help menu). Or download the additional maps we have prepared for you (see the sidebar on this page).
