DeLorme to Showcase New GPS-Related Extension for ESRI Petroleum User's Group

The ruggedized, waterproof Earthmate PN-40 GPS is capable of displaying aerial imagery, topographic and street maps, points of interest, and nautical charts. The device utilizes a high-visibility 65K-color transflective TFT color screen for readability in any lighting conditions.

The PN-40 is engineered for use with proprietary DeLorme software. The in-process extension will allow ESRI users to bypass that requirement, while still having access to the receiver's powerful navigation and data collection features.

DELORME VECTOR MAP DATA TO BE ON DISPLAY AS WELL

Long known for its compelling topographic map views, DeLorme is now making its North America Digital Map available for use in ESRI land-base GIS applications.

ESRI PUG attendees will be able to examine this exceptionally-detailed vector data first hand, and learn about how it can be applied in ESRI formats such as Shapefile, ArcSDE, and Geodatabase.
