Street Atlas USA 8.0 by DeLorme US Software

Description

Called “a must have for frequent travelers” by PC Magazine, Street Atlas USA 8.0 is a complete map and navigation package. Whether you use it before you travel or when you're on the road with your laptop, Street Atlas USA lets you know exactly where you are and where you're going with detailed maps and turn-by-turn directions.

Street Atlas USA offers detailed maps and directions for the entire U.S., right down to the smallest urban neighborhoods or rural crossroads. The DeLorme map database is continuously updated to reflect the latest available information from well-respected sources, including Geographic Data Technology. Street Atlas USA benefits include easy location of any place in the U.S. on a single CD-ROM by street address, intersection, place name, area code, local exchange, latitude/longitude, or ZIP code. The atlas also allows you to print turn-by-turn travel directions to any destination, and to quickly locate neighborhoods, schools, and parks on a map. Select exactly the streets you want using the Via routing feature.

Features new to this edition include 500,000 new streets across the U.S., over 3 million updated points of interest, improved address-finding capabilities with better street name and address range data, enhanced routing with updated exit and ramp information, and daily mileage and fuel consumption planning with the new Travel/Time Planner.

Precision Route Planning allows you to plan address-to-address routing directly from the CD-ROM. Use the Via routing feature to specify roads and stops along the way, and quickly compare route mileage and travel time. Access online weather, traffic, and construction updates in order to plan the ideal route. You can also set driving speeds and plan daily fuel consumption and mileage using the Travel/Time Planner.

Street Atlas USA powers your trip with customized maps and travel plans for personal, business, or recreational travel. Add useful titles to your maps and adjust the scale to print the maps you want. Or add text, notes, lines, and shapes directly to your map using a built-in set of drawing tools. Experience the clarity and detail of maps printed from Street Atlas USA and stay on track anywhere in the U.S.

Take Street Atlas USA with you on your laptop for access to quick-loading detailed maps wherever you are, with no need to worry about Internet access. Connect the DeLorme Earthmate GPS Receiver (available separately) or other GPS receivers to track your position in real time on the map while traveling, and listen to turn-by-turn spoken directions when tracking with a GPS receiver on your laptop computer. Street Atlas USA is compatible with Palm handhelds using Solus software by DeLorme (available separately).
