TatukGIS announces the release of GIS Editor

Thursday, 17 February 2005TatukGIS is pleased to announce the release of GIS Editor, the big brother product of the free TatukGIS Viewer which has been so popular during the past year.

The Editor supports all the formats, features, and functionality of the free Viewer, plus features to digitize/edit vector geometry and attributes, convert between vector file types, import/export attribute data, merge vector layers, build and correct topology, unions and splitting, clipping, buffers, etc.

The Editor saves vector layers to the following formats: SHP, GML, MIF, DXF, DLG, and to SQL geodatabase files based on a choice of two methods: i) the TatukGIS method or ii) with OpenGIS SQL Features implementation.

Like the free Viewer, the Editor can be used to create ASP.NET projects for easy web publishing with the TatukGIS Internet Server. Also like the free Viewer, the Editor is an intuitive product that can be used without a great deal of learning or training. The Editor is packaged with help files and a full set of tutorials demonstrating how to use all the major features. The help files and tutorials are callable under the Help menu. Also note the multiple language options under the View/Language menu.

A trial version of the Editor is available for download from www.TatukGIS.com. The retail version may be purchased directly from the www.TatukGIS.com web site.
