MapXtreme^® 2005:
MapInfo MapXtreme^® 2005 is a major .NET release of MapInfo's industry leading location-based development environment. MapXtreme^® 2005 enables the creation of custom mapping applications or map enablement of applications and solutions in Microsoft Windows^® desktop and web environments.

MapXtreme^® 2005 provides developers and users with the following benefits:

• Provides a single offering for the development of location-based or location-enabled Windows based applications for deployment on the web or desktop

• Application development made easy through MapInfo’s seamless integration with the Visual Studio.NET Development Environment, extending it’s capabilities to include location

• Providing true interoperability through compliance with both geospatial and IT industry standards

• Incrementally feature rich developer tool that allows development of applications with previously unseen complexity and flexibility

MapXtreme^® 2005 SDK
The MapXtreme^® 2005 SDK is designed for Microsoft Windows programmers who are familiar with Microsoft .NET development environment that are interested in developing applications and solutions that incorporate location with their existing systems and infrastructure. MapXtreme^® 2005 SDK is a single offering providing the ability to develop desktop or Smart Client applications as well as web applications.

Web Deployment
MapXtreme^® 2005 facilitates the rapid development of web applications by providing map application templates, numerous commonly used map control tools, sample applications and drag and drop development functionality. All web deployable .NET languages such as ASP.NET can be used with MapXtreme^® 2005.

Desktop Deployment
Much like the web development option, MapXtreme^® 2005 desktop development option includes numerous map application templates that automatically configure and load the mapping environment for the deployment type chosen, commonly used map control tools, sample applications and drag and drop development functionality. MapXtreme^® 2005 desktop option provides full support for Microsoft’s .NET languages such as VB.NET C# and Visual C++.

MapXtreme^® for Windows^®:
Built using Mircosoft Windows^® COM technology, MapInfo MapXtreme^® for Windows^® is ideal for organizations who have not yet transitioned to the .NET Framework and are comfortable building "ASP Classic" applications.  MapXtreme^® for Windows^® can put mapping applications into the hands of anyone with access to a web browser. With a simple click, customers can see their wireless coverage area, find the closest drug store or get driving directions to their next sales calls. And network engineers can visually spot disruptions in their network - automatically notifying customers of service outages.

MapXtreme^® Java^™ Edition:
MapInfo MapXtreme^® Java^™ Edition is ideal for Internet deployment of applications. With a simple click, customers can see their wireless coverage area, find the closest drug store or get driving directions to their next sales calls. And network engineers can visually spot disruptions in their network - automatically notifying customers of service outages. Functionality includes:

Multi-Platforms - Many organizations using spatial-analysis applications have mixed-hardware environments, or prefer UNIX servers for scalability, performance and reliability. With Java on the server-side, existing UNIX or Windows NT resources can be used. It is integrated with Oracle^® and can run on with J2EE compliant application servers and almost any browser.

Highly Scalable - For many organizations, making decisions based on location is mission-critical. Mapping applications need to perform well and support all users accessing the Internet or from a corporate intranet. MapXtreme^® Java^™ leverages the ubiquity and scalability of the Internet enabling customers to deploy mapping in critical applications cost- effectively, throughout the organization.

Write Once, Run Anywhere - When developed using a Java development environment, MapXtreme^® Java^™ applications can be migrated and reused regardless of future hardware or platform choices.

Fast Application Prototyping/Deployment - To help users get up and running as fast as possible, MapInfo includes a rapid prototyping tool and ships with Apache Tomcat 4.0.1 servlet container. Developers can very quickly develop applications which are based on standards and are easily expanded or modified. MapXtreme^® Java^™ follows the J2EE specification so developers can easily deploy applications with the tools provided or migrate to another J2EE compliant application server.
