Pitney Bowes Business Insight (PBBI) today announced the UK launch of Pitney Bowes MapInfo Professional v11.0, the latest version of the company’s flagship solution for business and mapping analysis. MapInfo Professional is a powerful Microsoft Windows-based mapping application that enables organisations to capitalise on location-based data, gaining deeper insights into their customers, resources and overall operations to make better informed decisions.
MapInfo Professional v11.0 addresses key usability and business problems related to spatial data creation, analysis, access and the cost associated with spatial data management. The new browser window offers advanced data entry options and follows the latest industry practices that result in a simple yet effective alphanumeric data entry experience. Its direct integration with MapInfo Manager promotes more effective use of an organisation’s spatial data – thereby generating considerable time efficiencies.
Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council uses a PBBI solution comprising MapInfo Professional, MapInfo Manager and MapInfo Stratus. Customer and Geographical Information Analyst at the Council, Andrew D’Andilly welcomes the introduction of MapInfo Professional 11.0. “By integrating the three solutions we have halved the council cost as compared to a purely on-premise solution. The integration between MapInfo Manager, Stratus and MapInfo Professional forms the backbone of Barnsley’s enterprise data strategy for GIS and allows us to push boundaries that were not possible previously”.
“MapInfo Professional’s integration with MapInfo Manager is already enabling us to identify duplicate data and significantly reduce the amount of data on our server, while the integration with MapInfo Stratus means we can publish data from our intranet out to the public, literally within 10-15 seconds. Now we are looking forward to rolling out the new functionality in MI Pro V11 and enhancing our business intelligence even further.”
