Title: Re: [AFMUG] GIS

Chuck,

May want to look at the fibersmith product. May not be the cheapest option, but works great for us. They have been more than helpful whenever we had any questions.

I second Brian's recommendations on QGIS and Manifold. If you want really powerful GIS functions, Manifold is the best system, hands down. I would never use Arc or MapInfo again after using manifold and I used to be a MapInfo trainer. Both QGIS and Manifold can link to external SQL DBs so you could probably build layers of customer point data with pop-up labels that contain customer info or create thematic maps based on certain values, etc, if you are looking for quick visuals.

Are there samples/examples that will help me not have to learn too much? Like a map with data that I can splice in my map and data. I am a lazy man.

I use qgis (open source). A bit of a learning curve but it's amazingly functional.

There is also manifold which is dirt cheap as far as GIS is concerned.

Anyone here use GIS? Thinking of a blend of a map and customer info. Too cheap for ESRI. Are there alternates?
