There's another good alternative for data creation and analysis, some<br>
competition for ESRI's ArcGIS - it's called &quot;TatukGIS&quot;. Tatuk has a<br>
full-featured editing program for lots less $$ than ESRI; we use their<br>
free viewer for our folks who do not create data.<br>
Www.tatukgis.com<br>
<br>
The Tatuk programs can use a wide variety of file formats, including<br>
shapefiles, DXF, raster, etc.<br>
And the learning curve for Tatuk is short - I speak as an ESRI veteran<br>
