CANVAS 9 Advanced GIS Mapping Edition software provides direct support for Geographic Information System data. It allows for measurements in geographic coordinates and importing of various GIS file types into unlimited layers that automatically align and overlap.
One of the key benefits of the CANVAS 9 Advanced GIS Mapping Edition is that it bridges the gap between dedicated GIS analysis software and generic "DTP" software. This makes it an ideal option for users who do not have access to or do not require specialized GIS analysis software, as it can often replace such programs at a lower cost. However, for those who do have dedicated GIS analysis software, the CANVAS 9 GIS Mapping Edition can be used as a "last mile" publishing companion.
In addition to these capabilities, the CANVAS 9 Advanced GIS Mapping Edition supports a wide range of file formats, including MapInfo, ARC/INFO, USGS Digital Line Graphs, TIGER (Census), MrSID (Win. only), GML (Geography Markup Language), SDTS (USGS Spatial Data Transfer Standard), GIS Text, Garmin (GPS), ECW (Enhanced Compressed Wavelet Images), and S57 (IHO International Hydrographic Organization). Overall, the CANVAS 9 Advanced GIS Mapping Edition is a powerful and versatile software product that is well-suited for a wide range of GIS data-related tasks.
