Street Atlas USA 6.0 for Macintosh Released

DeLorme 's Street Atlas USA 6.0 is the leading U.S. mapping software for Macintosh, giving you full access to the latest man-made and geographic detail for the entire United States on two CD-ROMs.

According to the developer, you can find virtually any place in the US with Street Atlas USA 6.0. Users can search by address to find business and residential locations, or perform lightning-quick searches by placename, area code and exchange, latitude/longitude or ZIP Code.

You can also zoom in and out easily using the zoom tools or by clicking and dragging to create a view box on the map. The program quickly gets just the data you requested and fills the screen at the appropriate detail scale. Choose from 15 different viewing levels of detail.

Street Atlas USA 6.0 provides true address-to-address routing. Plus, you get powerful routing tools to determine the specific route you want to take. Use Street Atlas USA 6.0 with your notebook and the DeLorme Earthmate GPS Receiver to experience the latest in satellite navigation.

Street Atlas USA 6.0 for Macintosh features include:

• Create Custom Maps

Use the program's draw tools to personalize your maps, adding symbols, lines, text and MapNotes to the maps. Zoom in from a full view of the continental US to street-level detail anywhere in the country.

Add your details to the maps with the easy-to-use draw tools. Include MapNotes to show the location of your house. Draw polygons to show new roads or property boundaries. Add symbols to mark locations of job sites or customers.

Plus, you can customize the details displayed on the map. Show or hide the ZIP Code boundaries, placenames, major roads, back roads, map tints and other map details.

Easily import your address book as a comma-delimited file, and see your contacts on the map. If you have a stand-alone GPS receiver, you can add your own details to specific latitude and longitude coordinates. Save the latitude/longitude waypoints for any location or trip with your GPS receiver, download them to the software, and view their locations on the maps.

Or, use Street Atlas USA 6.0 to identify key latitude/longitude locations, upload them into your GPS receiver and find them with ease when you get into the field with your GPS.

• Add the Latest Address-to-Address Routing Controls

You can create address-to-address routes, ideal for showing friends, clients and business colleagues how to find you. Street Atlas USA 6.0 puts you in control with advanced routing tools. Set driving speeds and use the Via routing tool to select exactly the roads you want.

• Print Customized Maps and Travel Plans

When you have finished creating the customized map, you can print beautiful color copies to show off your work.

You can also print Travel Plans, that include detailed maps and Route Directions for any trip you create with Street Atlas USA 6.0.

• Experience the Latest in Navigation with GPS Technology

Street Atlas USA 6.0 works with many GPS receivers, including the DeLorme Earthmate GPS Receiver. Simply connect Earthmate to your notebook computer and begin tracking in real-time.

Note: Some Macintosh notebooks require an additional USB-port-only adapter cable, available separately at http://www.macconnection.com/.

Using Earthmate, you can easily create address-to-address routes while traveling and see your position updated in real time.
