With publishing the new Pitney Bowes Business Insight website at http://www.pbinsight.com there has been a major overhaul of restructuring and integrating contents of the MapInfo and G1 websites.
So the new spot to find all product documentation, neatly categorized, is http://www.pbinsight.com/support/product-documentation/.
For those of you that can no longer wait to work with the newest release of MapInfo Professional, it is good to now that a free fully functional 30 day trial version can be downloaded after registration at http://www.pbinsight.com/ten/.
This is the english version of the software, dutch and french versions will be available in the last quarter of 2009.
One of the collegues in the PBBI MapInfo Benelux office maintains a website with a lot of useful (technical) info on MapBasic, MapInfo Professional, Vertical Mapper, Tools and data.
The site can be found at http://www.twiav.nl/ and the name of the site explains the title of this post.
So go there and get your syntax highlighting for coding MapBasic in NotePad++ and tips about accessing WMS layers in Proviewer, using Oracle Express Spatial etc.
Thanks Egge-Jan for putting this online!

Gisteren zijn tijdens het Retail Seminair in Houten, Nederland een aantal presentaties gegeven over gebruik van Location Intelligence in de retail sector.
Deze presentaties zijn nu te vinden op http://www.geovisualisatie.nl/RetailSeminairNL2009/.
Overigens zijn de presentaties van het retail seminair dat afgelopen jaar in zowel Belgie als Nederland heeft plaatsgevonden ook nog steeds online te vinden op http://www.geovisualisatie.nl/retail/.
This one is about projection, datums, coordinate systems…
MapInfo Professional uses a file MAPINFOW.PRJ to store data about all supported coordinate systems.
You can add information if you need support for custom data or coordinate systems that are not already available in MapInfo Professional.
For example the Belgium Lambert 2005 and 2008 systems are not in the current 9.5.1 version.
Check out MAPINFOW.PRJ for more information on working with -your own- coordinate systems in MapInfo Profesisonal.
Many of you (not) speaking the dutch language fluently were already aware that there is an english MapInfo Discussion Group too.
It has been around for many years and lots of useful information is shared in that group.
So don’t forget to visit and subscribe to http://groups.google.com/group/mapinfo-l too!
Vorige week is de Nederlandstalige MapInfo Discussiegroep in het leven geroepen op Internet.
http://groups.google.com/group/mapinfo-nl
Wat is het doel van deze discussiegroep?
MapInfo-NL biedt een discussieplatform aan alle gebruikers van MapInfo Proffesional (en gerelateerde producten) in Nederland en België.
Voor en door klanten dus!
The past two weeks there were two user events in NL and BE with updates on the new version of MapInfo Professional and other Location Intelligence products.
These presentations are now available for download here.
