Hi there!
Your best data originator will be Ordnance Survey Southern Ireland. This
organisation will be able to provide street data with street names (the
equivalent of GB OS LandLine) for the main cities that you have mentioned,
hopefully! The other alternative is that they may also have 1:10,000 raster
tiles or hard copy maps. The mapping for Southern Ireland is a little
behind Northern Ireland, so don't have high expectations.
The alternative and cheaper option is to use The Data Consultancy's Cartique
data sets. The scale is 1:300,000 and contains for example all the
transport infrastructure such as a fairly detailed road network, railway
lines, urban sprawls, coast line and a good gazetteer. The only problem is
that the roads will only have road numbers and not names. The added
advantage of Cartique is that you can produce car accessibility isochrones
within a software package called Drivetime within MapInfo.
Both are available via the Internet. Good hunting!
