Global Mapper is a powerful GIS suite that will enable users to handle multiple specific formats, perform complex analysis processes, create map layouts or even deal with LiDAR data.

Seemingly familiar interface that retains the comprehensive set of GIS tools and raises the bar even more

The user interface may seem a bit overwhelming at the first glance, but this is only because the application comes packed with many dedicated features. In order to make the most out of every single built-in tool, users are advised to refer to the in-depth documentation.

Perform advanced GIS analysis and create the required map layouts, with this trustworthy application

Global Mapper enables users to zoom in or out of the map, preview the data in 3D, select a background color, draw and measure segments/areas, select the vector features (areas, lines, and points), view loaded elevation datasets and perform line of sight calculations, and much more.

Additionally, there are several tools designed to help you create an elevation grid from 3D vector data, combine or compare terrain layers, generate contours and watersheds, find ridge lines, and measure volume between surfaces.

Other important features worth mentioning allow users to activate the GPS function, mark the waypoints, as well as select new areas on the map and modify their features in terms of type (e.g. sands, watersheds, wooded area, lakes, islands, reservations), name, and distance.

The generated data can be exported to a multitude of file formats, namely PDF, JPG, PCX, PNG, RAW, KML/KMZ, DXF, SVG, and others.

Complete GIS package that will help specialists and passionate users alike to attain the preferred geographical analysis targets

Featured Map: Hawaiian Airlines from Honolulu to Austin, Ontario, and Orlando

Yesterday, Hawaiian Airines announced three new non-stop routes fromHonolulu.The two longest routes will be flown twice weekly with Airbus A330 aircraft.Service to Orlandowill start on 11 March 2021.A layover of over 25 hours which will allow a single crew to operateboth directions, reducing layover costs. Although it seems wasteful topark an A330 for so long, depressed demand means the aircraft would beparked somewhere regardless.

Austinwill start on 21 April 2021,with a 12-hour layover, just enough for crew rest. Unlike other flightsdeeper into the continent than the West Coast, the eastbound flight will bea daytime flight and not a red-eye.

The third new route will be toOntario,with 5x-weekly service using Airbus A321neo aircraft starting16 March 2021.

In addition to the new Honolulu routes, Hawaiian announced service fromMaui toLong Beach starting9 March 2021.This daily service, also using the A321neo, will complement existingnon-stops from Honolulu to Long Beach.

Today's Featured Map shows the four new routes, with the A330 routes inpurple and the A321neo routes in orange. It's nice to see some positivenews in the airline world!
