Amesbury, MA -- March 12, 2003 -- /Software Wire/ -- Maptech's New Terrain Navigator Pro aims at bringing the benefits of using USGS topographic maps and Aerial Photos to a wide spectrum of professions that rely on detailed maps for work or recreation. Over 30 new features give users a wide selection of tools to customize the maps for land surveying, real estate, forestry, land management, public safety, homeland security, fire fighting; as well as recreational uses from hunting and hiking to genealogy.

Instantly navigate from a USGS topographic map to an Aerial Photo. With a few clicks you can view a topo map side by side with an aerial photo in 2-D or 3-D. Topos and aerial photos can be printed in 2-D or 3-D. Collect and organize an entire project showing photos, reports, drawings, and other key resources all geo-referenced to the actual map with GeoPin hyperlinks - a new drag and drop Maptech feature. Terrain Navigator Pro is available for the entire United States. Each state or region retails for $299.95 and includes all the USGS topographic maps for the area on CD-ROMs with instant Internet access to the related Aerial Photos at 1-meter resolution via the Maptech web site. Visit www.maptech.com for a complete tour.

Gavin Johnston, VP of Marketing, likes to make an analogy with word-processing programs and using maps. "Most of us find great utility in writing a letter or a report using MS Word(r) because it is easy to use and also has a lot of advanced features for the times you need to go beyond a simple document. Well, in the same way people who use topo maps and aerial photos have a wide variety of expertise and needs. One of the more amazing things about Terrain Navigator Pro is both its simplicity and power to satisfy this broad spectrum of users - from map experts to professionals who are just starting to use digital maps."
