Editing Features:

• Edit already existing vector file geometry and save to the SHP, MID/MIF, DXF, GML, DLG, KML, and GPX formats or to three SQL geodatabase formats: i) OPENGIS® Simple Features for SQL Implementation, ii) native TatukGIS SQL binary method, and iii)Geomedia® SQL Server & Access Warehouse.
• Create/edit new shapes or map layers by mouse clicking on the map or by entering/changing x,y coordinate values
• Create new vector shapes by importing x,y coordinates from an outside source
• Snap to the locations of already existing vertices
• Create and edit shapefile attribute information via the data panel
• Export/import vector map attribute data to/from a spreadsheet or database
• Create/edit new shapes by entering distance/bearing measurements, as used with RE parcel records in North America
• Special drawing tools: rectangle, rotated rectangle, quadrilateral, circle, right angle, freehand drawing
• Line smoothing mode using B-Splines
• Special clipboard layer (copy, paste, save, unions, subtractions, etc.)
• Unions and splitting of vector shapes
• Merger of shapefile layers (files)
• Create buffers and convex hulls and use to perform spatial selections
• Export shapefile data to supported vector map formats; Refine the export operation using spatial extent, spatial selection, and/or SQL attribute query
• Vector clipping based on the view extent
• Import/export data between a map layer and GPS devices in the GPX format
• Concurrent multi-user editing of the same file using SQL server based formats
• Build polygon and polyline topology layers and use to systematically identify and correct geometrical errors in vector map data
• Program user interface can be localized to the following languages: English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, Greek, Swedish, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, Russian, Ukrainian, Thai, and Japanese.

• Open/read most vector, image, and SQL geodatabase data formats; support is native, with no need to import data into any internal format
• Open the attribute information of any vector map layer as a table in the data panel; perform advanced queries and filters against attribute values
• Open WMS map layers from a remote server.
• Use map layers containing multiple file types in the same project
• Open most ESRI ArcView®, ArcExplorer®, and MapInfo Professional® projects as well as TatukGIS project files
• Create or edit TatukGIS project files
• Zoom in/out, pan
• Scale bar and user defined scale for viewing/printing
• Add, remove, and reorder layers in a project; unlimited number of layers
• Alter the appearance (colors, styles, fills, outlines, symbols, transparency, etc.) of vector layers with the use of "style sheets"
• Manipulate pixel layers (brightness, transparency, histograms, etc.)
• Custom render thematic maps based on vector attribute fields, including colored-gradient value themes
• Color render Digital Terrain Model (DTM) data with directional light and shadowing
• Custom label fonts, sizes, colors, positions, etc.
• Custom render map geometry, labels, charts, etc. based on zoom (scale) level
• Use CGM and TrueType symbols for points and lines; CGM, TrueType, and WMF symbols for fills
• URL Hotlink for automatic linking objects to any document referenced with a valid URL (web page, file, even mailto)
• Present data as bar and pie charts
• Spatial querying (by point, line, circle, rectangle, polygon, and custom clipboard layer)
• Advanced attribute data presentation, querying, and selection with the data panel; SQL query builder
• Measurement tools for distance, area, and perimeter
• Print and print preview, print to PDF file
• Copy visible extent of all layers to Windows clipboard using the EMF meta format
• Export to image files: TIFF/GeoTIFF/LZW, JPEG, PNG, BMP, PixelStore, PDF
• "Internet Server Wizard" to easily set up a simple ASP.NET project for web publishing with the TatukGIS Internet Server. This provides an easy and affordable path to web publish any GIS mapping project.
