>Is there a way to add a layer like that with Maptitude? No. You must use Calipers's TransCAD product for that. If you use shortest paths, drive time polygons or other transportation based functions I suggest you take a look at it. It is an awesome product. (Maptitude is just a subset of TransCAD.) At geoVue we use Freeway called from the GISDK to create drive time polygons from within Maptitude so we can have a less expensive, Maptitude based product. See http://www.spatialinsights.com/catalog/product.aspx?product=37 for freeway. We also use TransCAD, especially the facility location functionality, for our market planning products. Warning, shameless product promotion coming up: If you do a lot with national demographics, and define the areas on which to compute demographics in many different ways including drive times, you may want to take a serious look at iSite (from geoVue). Of course, if you do site selection, sales forecasting and market planning you definitely should use it! Full disclosure: I wrote most of it!
