1 – Introduction
Thank you for purchasing StreetPro Display and/or StreetPro Classic, the premium street products from Pitney Bowes

Both products cover the 50 U.S. States, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia.

In this chapter:

What are StreetPro Display and StreetPro Classic? 4What’s in this Product Guide? 4Data Vintage 5Accessing your StreetPro Data 6For MapInfo Professional Users 6For MapXtreme.NET (8.0) Users 7For MapXtreme.NET (8.0) Users 7


What are StreetPro Display and StreetPro Classic?The data used in StreetPro Display and StreetPro Classic is based on MultiNet® data from TomTom.

StreetPro Display contains over 30 layers of streets, highways and shields, airports, railways, administrative boundaries, point locations and water features.

StreetPro Classic includes all the layers and tools in StreetPro Display, plus an address layer of streets and address ranges that you can use to geocode, or plot, your data more precisely.

For a complete list of layers and any supplementary data, refer to Layer Descriptions.

Both products ship with workspaces that open up all of the common layers simultaneously.

The products are organized into State files. Depending on what you purchased, a state includes all state-level tables or includes county folders and county-level tables. You can install this data locally or open it directly from the StreetPro product media. Additionally, you can use the StreetPro Autoloader utility (refer to Displaying Data Using Autoloader on page 14) to control how much of the data to open and display in a map window at one time, or you can view the most common tables in a single County or State using the workspaces provided on the product media. The data has been formulated to take advantage of the data manipulation features in MapInfo Professional® and MapXtreme® .NET.

For the full list of utilities, refer to Reviewing the StreetPro Tools on page 22.

What’s in this Product Guide?This product guide is made up of the following chapters and appendices:

Introduction contains introductory information relating to the current version of StreetPro, followed by installation instructions.Displaying Data Using Autoloader shows you the Autoloader tool and introduces the templates that we have included in order to help speed you on your way to your first maps.Layer Descriptions covers the different mapping layers that are available.Mapping Basics shows you how to display your data, customize your maps with labels, and get information about objects in the layers.


1 – Introduction

Working with Seamless Maps explains how to open seamless maps, how to select objects in seamless maps and display them, and how to move your seamless maps from the product media to your hard drive.Geocoding Data using StreetPro Classic shows you how to use the unique features of the Classic to match your own data to the addresses in StreetPro.Editing StreetPro Layer Information tells you how to edit the information in the layers to customize your maps.Listing miCodes covers the MapInfo Professional Feature Codes (miCodes) that are the features keys for selection and filtering in StreetPro. This additional metadata enhances your ability to target specific kinds of information that share administrative, population and land features, or other common and useful properties.

Layered PDFs. This provides instructions on viewing two PDFs of New York State that demonstrate the latest features available in StreetPro USThe layered PDFs appear on the final two pages of the guide. You can turn layers on and off as required.

Appendix D: 2010 Source Change Summary. This provides a brief summary about the 2010 source changes.

Index provides a hyperlinked, alphabetical list of the features covered in the product guide.

Data VintagePitney Bowes’s data products explicitly show the ‘vintage’ of the source data in unambiguous terms. ‘Vintage’ refers to the currency of the data as of a specific date. Because of data-to-product production time, it does not necessarily correspond to the date of product release.All product media, product documentation and product metadata prominently display the data vintage using the following notation:MMYYYY {(Month Year)}

where:

YYYY is the four-digit yearMM is the data vintage's calendar month (01–12)

and optionally:

Month is the three-character abbreviation of the month nameYear is the four-digit year.



To view or edit the metadata, you can either open the .TAB files in a text editor or use the MapInfo Professional Table Manager tool.

Accessing your StreetPro DataThere are three ways in which you can display your StreetPro data. You can:

• Use the Autoloader. This is a tool designed to give you a quick start in working with StreetPro data. The Autoloader offers pre-designed templates of StreetPro data. You can customize these templates with additional data and save them as your own maps or as templates of your own. For more information, refer to Displaying Data Using Autoloader.

• Open the layers individually. You can open layers individually to create your own custom maps. This method gives you maximum control over which layers and features display and which colors are used. See Layer Descriptions on page 31 for more about the individual layers.

• Use Workspaces and Map Definition Files. In addition to templates, we provide a variety of generic State-wide maps that are specific to the Pitney Bowes products. These maps allow you to further customize your data.• See For MapInfo Professional Users for more about using workspaces.• See For MapXtreme.NET (8.0) Users for more about using Map Workspaces

(MWS) Files.

For MapInfo Professional UsersAs an alternative to opening files with the Autoloader, you can use the workspaces provided to facilitate your map making. These workspaces open with preset display defaults and layers.

CAUTION: Before using these workspaces, be sure to run the data installer on your system to install the necessary font and symbol files that are used by the workspaces.

A complete description of all layering in Workspaces, Map Workspace (MWS) Files, and Map Definition Files (MDF) appears in table\extras\SPLAYERS.XLS on the product media.

The following enhanced workspaces have been added to Version 2010.03 and above in order to take advantage of some of the text and line rendering features from MapInfo Professional 10:

• SSCCCC_90.wor for County-tiled versions• SS_90.wor for State-tiled versions


1 – Introduction

where:SS is the State abbreviation; andCCCC is the County abbreviation.

You need to be running MapInfo Professional Version 10 (or higher) in order for the enhanced rendering to be visible.

For illustrations of the latest layers within a newly styled workspace, go to Layered PDFs on page 134.

For MapXtreme.NET (8.0) UsersIf you use MapXtreme, you can use the Workspace Manager to create and view XML-based workspace files (with a .MWS extension). This format allows you to share and display your data on many different platforms and on different operating systems. The workspaces can be stored either as files or as records in a database, and include settings for projection, default zoom, object auto-labeling, and zoom layering.

The format still allows you to determine whether a table should be visible when the workspace is opened.

StreetPro includes preconfigured MWS files for each level of StreetPro geography. The appropriate layers and zoom settings have been provided for each geography and may either be used immediately as they are, or customized to meet your specific needs. You can find these files in:

• The State directory of your installation disk, if your data is State-tiled.• The State\County subdirectories of your installation disk, if your data is County-tiled.

The naming convention for State mapping files is <State>.mws (where <State> refers to the State abbreviation). For County-level map files, the abbreviation is <County>.mws (where <County> refers to the County-level abbreviation).

Our XML documents use textual identifiers and, where possible, we have used identifiers defined by XML standards organizations. However, XML allows for identifiers to be added by any document author to clarify the meaning of the data used in the document.



You can create MWS files from your StreetPro *.WOR workspaces in MapInfo Professional 7.8 or later.

To open an XML-based MWS file in MapXtreme:

1. Open the Workspace Manager.

2. Either:

• Click the Open icon on the Button Bar. Or• From the File Menu, select Open and select the MWS file you want to open from

your data directory.

MapXtreme.NET — Use of Rendering Options to Enhance MapsMicrosoft Windows GDI+ is the portion of the Windows XP operating system or Windows Server 2003 operating system that provides two-dimensional vector graphics, imaging, and typography. GDI+ improves on Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI, the graphics device interface included with earlier versions of Windows) by adding new features and optimizing existing features.

GDI+ rendering allows you to create translucent labels, themes, and layers, as well as apply anti-aliasing that will smooth the jagged edges of lines, curves and region borders when representing a high-definition rendition at a lower resolution.

Enabling Translucency and Anti-Aliasing

You can enable GDI+ rendering in the API through two new properties— EnableTranslucency and SmoothingMode— in the MapInfo.Mapping.DrawingAttributes and MapInfo.Mapping.LegendDrawing Attributes classes. You can also enable these properties using the new Style tab in Workspace Manager’s Layer Control:


1 – Introduction

Anti-aliasing can only be used when translucency is enabled. This is enforced both by the user interface, via the Workspace Manager, and programmatically. When you select Use Anti-Aliasing, Enable Translucency is also selected automatically. Whenever Enable Translucency is deselected, Use Anti-Aliasing is automatically deselected.

The following maps demonstrate the effects of label translucency and anti-aliasing on roads and highways. Notice the smoothness of the region borders and polylines when anti-aliasing is enabled.

Before GDI+ Enhanced Rendering: After GDI+ Enhanced Rendering:

A translucency trackbar (TrackBarValuePicker control) was also added for use with all style dialog boxes (Line Style, Area Style, Symbol Style, Text Style, etc.). This control allows you to pick a percent value between 0-100 using the sliding trackbar or the numeric selection box. However, this trackbar only works when translucency is enabled.



To change a color's translucency programmatically, use the System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb() method. This allows you to specify an alpha value for the desired color. For more information, see the .NET documentation athttp://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.color.fromargb.aspx.

Translucency in all colors is supported and the tools will work properly regardless of whether the translucency is enabled or disabled.

The Enable Translucency option has no effect on raster translucency. Translucent rasters are always honored when displayed on the screen or exported to a file in an image. Translucent rasters, however, will only print translucent when the Enable Translucency option is enabled.

Rendering higher quality maps by enabling translucency and anti-aliasing, particularly in a map with three or more transparent layers, will often result in a slower rendering speed.

How to Add Translucent Effects to a Map

The following picture shows a translucent city boundary region over the map. The partial overlap over the label shows the difference between the covered part of the label and the uncovered part of the label. The label itself is also translucent over the rest of the map.


http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.color.fromargb.aspx

1 – Introduction

To add translucent effects to a layer, use a style override to change the original style of the layer.

1. In Workspace Manager’s Layer Control, select the "root" node in the layer control (this corresponds to the map). In the Style tab, select Enable Translucency.

2. Select the layer to which you wish to add translucency, move it to the top of the list, and then add a style override.

3. On the Visibility tab, click the style button that is specific to the objects in that layer. For this example, click the Area Style button. The Area Style dialog box appears.

4. Use the translucency trackbar to select the level of translucency that you wish to apply. Each color has its own translucency level.

The previous example also showed a translucent label similar to a watermark. If you turn off visibility on the translucent city boundary region, the label appears as follows:

To add a translucent label over your map:

1. In Workspace Manager’s Layer Control, select the ‘root’ node (this corresponds to the map). In the Style tab, select Enable Translucency.

2. Select the label source in the Layer Control and go to the Style tab.

3. Click the Text style button to display the Text Style dialog box.



4. Use the translucency trackbar to select how translucent you want your label color to be. The above example shows text at 80% foreground translucency.

How to Apply Translucent Effects to Themes

You can apply translucent effects to thematic maps. The following example shows a ranged theme applied to a city boundary layer. The layer is positioned on top of the rest of the layers.

If translucency is enabled, you can select a translucent value for the start and end theme ranges (bins), and automatically spread the color. This will also automatically spread the translucent value between the start and end theme bins. For example, the theme in the above map has a translucency value of 75% for the start bin (gray) and 50% for the end bin (red). Since this theme has 3 bins, the middle bin is automatically given a translucency value of 63% (50 through 75 spread equally).

3 – Displaying Data Using
Autoloader

The Autoloader is a Mapbasic tool that can load your USA and Canada StreetPro states/provinces quickly and allows you to customize your view and output of the data.

It is not mandatory to use the Autoloader to display your StreetPro maps.

In this chapter:

14Apply Template to Map 25About Autoloader 27Explaining the Choose Layer Options Dialog Box 28


StreetPro AutoloaderMapInfo Professional 64 bit versions 15.2 and above can run the Autoloader utility to open styled maps quickly. You can select from a wide variety of templates and other features and save a customized template that meets your needs. You can use the Autoloader to open specific layers and indicate whether the labels for those layers should display.

Run the StreetPro Autoloader in MapInfo Professional:1. Start MapInfo Professional.

2. Do one of the following:

a. To run the Autoloader once:• Select Tools Extension from the Home tab on the Ribbon.. • Select the drop down Options > Run Program and navigate to the tools location. • Select Open.

• Autoloader is now added to the Home Tab on the ribbon in the File section.


3 – Displaying Data Using Autoloader

There are two versions of Autoloader on the product media, autoload.mbx and autoload9.mbx. Autoload9.mbx utilizes the new labeling capabilities that were added to MapInfo Professional 9.0 and above.

b. To add Autoloader into the Tool Manager. This will allow Autoloader to automatically load every time you open MapInfo Professional:•Select Tools Extension from the Home tab on the Ribbon. Select Options >

Register Tool.•Add a title and the correct path to where the Autoload.mbx was placed.



Getting Started Using AutoloaderThe following commands are available from the Autoloader menu: Open, Open Framed by Mapper, Close, Add, Browse, Verify, Apply Template to Map, Manage Templates, Options.

*** Prior to using the autoloader for 64 bit MapInfo Professional there are a few preliminary steps:

• The New Autoloader for 64bit MapInfo Professional can be found in the ..\extras\autoload\_tools folder on the media.

• Copy this folder to a directory.• Copy the .slt files with the prefix of stpdsv2017_MM (where MM is the release

month) from the extras autoloader folder into the _tools directory (this only need to be done if using the Autoloader for 64 bit)

• The .slt files contain the different color and layer refinements associated with each template.

• If choosing the default path or placing the _tools folder in Program files or Program Files(x86) directories, start MapInfo Pro as an administrator before running the autoloader tool. (Go to the Windows Start menu and right-click on MapInfo Pro. Then select “Run As Administrator”)



AddBefore you can start opening and styling your StreetPro data you need to populate the Data Catalog. This allows the tool to understand what StreetPro data is installed and where it is installed.

Add command will populate the Data catalog with StreetPro data. Once the StreetPro States/Provinces are added into the catalog they can be stylized.



Add will allow you to add a single state or province or a parent directory that contains many states or provinces folders.

Once you click Select Folder > OK the data in that folder will be populated in the catalog.



If you attempt to load the same data twice, the tool will check and report that the data already exists and will not add the data twice.

Browse Data CatalogThis command allows you to display the Data Catalog table in a Browser window. The catalog table is a non-mappable table that lists all of the installed street geographies and their directory paths.

CAUTION: If you change the directory path of a StreetPro file through this Browser window, you must also change the directory at the operating system level, and vice- versa.

Verify Data Catalog This command determines whether the Data Catalog contains entries that are no longer valid, such as files that have been deleted or moved to another location. Keep your Data Catalog up to date by running the Verify Data Catalog command. It automatically determines which entries are invalid and displays a list for you to choose which items to delete.



This process only deletes the entry from the Data Catalog. It does not delete any files from your system.

Using Autoloader to Style Data

OpenThe Open command allows you to control how much data you want to open and display in a Map window. Use Open to select one or more States and layers with the required display, label and zoom settings.

The Open command activates two dialog boxes where you choose the Counties to open, followed by the layers. In the Choose Layer Options dialog box, you can control every aspect of the layer display. To make it easier, StreetPro provides templates with settings optimized for various displays, including a default, small font, highway overview, black and white output, rural view, rural for small font display, and a ‘fancy’ display.

1. Select Autoloader > Open. If you have more than one StreetPro or other Pitney Bowes data product installed, the Select Among Installed Products dialog box displays. Select your installed StreetPro product to proceed.



2. Click OK. The Select Geographies to Open dialog box displays:

3. Use the filter to show the geographies in which you are interested.

• To see all of the States you installed, click Show All Installed Areas.• To restrict the States that display, click Show Installed Areas in Geography and

select the State in which you are interested.

4. To select a geography to open, click the name of the State in the Geographies list.

• To open consecutive States, click and drag to highlight the State names you want.• To open non-consecutive States, Control-click the names of the States you want to

open.• To sort the Geographies list, click one of the Geography Sort Order radio buttons.

5. When you have completed your selections, click OK.



The Choose Layer Options dialog box displays:

6. Choose the appropriate settings in this dialog box.This dialog box allows you to select from several supplied templates with different settings for layer display, label and zoom levels.Refer to the section below regarding Explaining the Choose Layer Options Dialog Box below for assistance in making your selections. If you make changes to the options in this list, you can save the new settings as a custom template. This Dialog box will appear allowing you to save the changes to a new template (Save changes to New),



update an existing one Save Changes) or just open without committing the changes (Don’t Save Changes):

7. When you have completed your selections, click OK to display the tables that match your criteria in a Map window.

You can either use the templates as they are or modify them to create new ones.

Opened Frame by MapperThe Open Framed by Mapper command is a different way to open data. You would use Open Framed by Mapper when you already have a Map window open and you are unsure as to the States that it covers.

If you click Open Framed by Mapper, the Autoloader queries the current Map window for the bounds or extent that the window covers (that is to say, the maximum and minimum longitude and latitude). The Autoloader then queries your data catalog to see if you have any street data installed that covers this area. If you do have one or more States that would cover the Map window, the Autoloader displays the standard dialog boxes that let you pick one or all of those States (and one more of the StreetPro layers) and adds them to the current Map window.

CloseThis command displays the Close Layers dialog box, from where you can close multiple States and/or layers from your StreetPro maps simultaneously.

The actions in this dialog box are exclusive, meaning that the choices you make in the left hand Close All Layers list do not affect the choices in the right hand Close Selected Layers list. The choices can, however, be carried out at the same time.

• To close all layers in one or more States, highlight the States in the left list box and click OK. Do not select any layer names.



• To close certain layers in all States, highlight the layer(s) in the right list box and click OK without selecting any State names.

• To close all of some States and all of some layers, highlight the appropriate State and layer names in each list box and click OK.

• To change any settings in the dialog box, click the Clear button and re-select

Apply Template to MapApplying a Template to an Open Map

You can use the Apply Template option on the Autoloader menu to apply a new template to the

current Map window:

1. On the Autoloader Menu, click Apply Template to Map. The Choose Layer Options dialog box displays.

2. Click the Load Template button to display the list of available templates.



3. Select the template you want to use from the list, and click OK.

This command allows you to change the look and feel of the open map without having to close your map and reopen it with a new template.

Manage TemplatesThis command displays the Manage Template dialog box that lists the available templates, including any you have created yourself. The templates that ship with StreetPro can be found in the _tools directory.

* XX = the StreetPro version number, for example, STPDV90.SLT

If you have a template that you wish to remove from your system, highlight its name in the top box and click Delete Selected Template. You may only remove one template at a time. To recover a deleted StreetPro template, copy the .SLT file from the product media.

Opening StreetPro Feature LayersThere are a number of ways to open and display your StreetPro maps in MapInfo Professional:

• Use the Autoloader to open multiple layers (tables) for one County or State, or multiple Counties and States, simultaneously. The dialog box helps you through your choices. You can also use the Autoloader to display your data using templates which apply pre-configured styles to the maps you open. For more details, refer to Displaying Data Using Autoloader on page 14.

• Use File > Open to open each map layer individually. This is handy for opening one or two tables, but tedious for opening multiple layers in different Counties.

• Use File > Open to open workspaces or map definition files, depending upon the application you are using.

• Use File > Open (using the table or workspace File of Type option) to open seamless map layers for an entire State. For more details, refer to Working with Seamless Maps on page 86.

Common Data Items in StreetProThere are two data items that are common to all of the tables in StreetPro: metadata and Cartographic Legend support.

MetadataAll tables contain metadata that describes aspects of the content, including spatial data information (bounding coordinates, number and type of objects), and keywords for the geography and type of content). This data is stored in the .TAB file and can be accessed in one of two ways:

• Open up the .TAB file in a text editor. The .TAB file is simple ASCII text and the metadata can be found at the bottom of this text, displayed in a “<key name>”=”<key value>” format.

• Use the MapInfo Professional Table Manager tool, which is accessible through Tools > Tool Manager > Table Manager.



Cartographic Legend SupportIn MapInfo Professional, you can create a Cartographic Legend for any Map window. For Map windows containing StreetPro data (opened through the Autoloader, workspaces or File > Open), select Map > Create Legend to create a cartographic legend. For further information on Cartographic Legends (including information on using and editing them), please review the Cartographic Legend information in the MapInfo Professional documentation.

StreetPro ClassicWhen you add and then tick the Geocoder layer in MapInfo Professional’s Layer Control, black lines are rendered over the existing streets.

Figure 1: Addressed Streets in the Geocoder Layer

Now, when you use the Info tool to point at a particular road with address range



information, and then click on the Geocoder link at the top of the resultant box:

the associated address range information is displayed, together with Road Class information and an indicator (True or False) of whether the selected feature is a Toll road:



Click on the double arrow symbol to view the miCode, Longitude and Latitude, and A2_Code, which contains the State Abbreviation and 3-digit County FIPS Code.

The Geocoder table is a view table and has no structure, it opens the geocode 1 and geocode2 tables and joins them on MI_Refnum to create a view table.

HighwaysMapMarker includes five types of Highway layer:

• Expressways - dark pink lines• Primary Highways – orange lines• Secondary Highways – dark green lines• Regional Highways – light green lines• Local Routes – dark brown lines.

These layers comprise the entire U.S. highway network, including multi-lane freeways, interstate highways, parkways, and any ramping connected to each.

To view the different Highway layers (with the exception of Primary Highways), and turn them on and off, go to the initial PDF in Layered PDFs.

In all the Highway layers, a new field called ShieldCode has been added in StreetPro US and above. This is a 4-digit integer value that is a unique code for Highway Shield icons. For more on Highway Shields, go to Highway Shields Layers on page 53.

Highway Shields LayersThere are four generic types of Highway Shield: County, Interstate, State and National. Each type has three layers, each of them optimized for a specific zoom level display.

The layers contain fixed-point shields. When one of the layers is added to a Map window, the shields display on top of the appropriate Highways layers. The text specifying each route number is drawn from an autolabel on the associated Shields layer. For examples, refer to the initial PDF in Layered PDFs.

Each type of shield is contained in separate tables, organized by County (in County-tiled packs) or by State (in State-tiled maps).

To support the independent use of Highway Shields, a lookup table—StreetProUSHighwayShieldRefer.tab—has been included in StreetPro US and above. It lists, for each Shield code, a description of the highway type and the associated MapInfo Professional symbol definition.

FontsThe Highway Shields layers require two font resources to be installed in order to display correctly:

• “MapInfo Shields” and “MapInfo StreetPro” for use in MapInfo Professional, MapX and MapXtreme Windows.

• “MapInfo Shields Unicode” and “MapInfo StreetPro Unicode” for use in MapXtreme Java.

These fonts are installed by the StreetPro installer. If you are not using the installer (for example, if you are a multiple data user making use of a network installation), or cannot use the installer (for example, if you are using MapXtreme Java on a non-Windows platform), then you must install the fonts manually. The font files are located in the \extras\ttf directory on each data DVD.

If you did not run the installer to install the necessary fonts, you will only see dark rectangles for the shield points. If you did not install the fonts with the rest of StreetPro, run SETUP.EXE again and select Install Fonts Only in the Installation Types dialog box. Refer to Installing StreetPro U.S. on your Hard Drive in Chapter 1 on page 18.



Highway Shields Printing Tips

When printing maps with Highway Shields, select the options that allow you to print raster graphics and to print true type fonts as graphics. If the background map is showing through the Shields, then any of the following could be the problem:

• You don't have the correct two layers.• Your layers are in the wrong order.• The printer driver isn’t configured properly.

Additionally, we have found that Windows’ bolding looks better than Monotype's Century Gothic Bold weight font. If you are an experienced user, you may want to uninstall the Bold weight fonts and take a look at the results.

In order to ensure that the Shields are positioned and labeled correctly, it is recommended that you open a Highway Shields layer via:

• The Autoloader (refer to Displaying Data Using Autoloader on page 14).• The provided workspaces.Once you open a Highway Shields layer correctly, it acts like any other StreetPro layer of map objects. That is to say, you can add or move objects to it, or delete objects from it.

For the best results, be sure to place the Highways Shields layer above the Highways layer.

Both contain brown polylines representing U.S. streets, together with the associated street names. All alternate names are also included. The street names are indexed so that you can use Query > Find to locate an object.

The differences between the two layers are as follows:

• streets.tab is available in all flavors of StreetPro U.S. and is for use in a Map window to give your data a geographic reference. For an example, refer to the Oneways Example on page 59.

• The Classic displays streets in the same way as streets.tab, but it also includes some additional rendering, and also incorporates the associated address ranges so that you can use it for geocoding your data (refer to Geocoding Data using StreetPro Classic on page 91).

• Legal Entities — Incorporated Places1, created under State law and reported to the Census Bureau as of January 1, 2010.

• Statistical Entities — Census Designated Places - recognizable communities or concentrations of population that are not Incorporated Places.

• Consolidated Cities — The primary Incorporated Place in a consolidated government2 is referred to as a Consolidated City.

•

All boundaries have a vintage of the 2010 data and are based on the Census definition of the Populated Place. The Cities layer includes a Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) code that uniquely identifies each city.

For illustrations of the Cities layer, refer to the Towns Layer Example with City Boundaries on page 63, and to the initial PDF in Layered PDFs.



Decimal(15,0)

1. An Incorporated Place is established to provide governmental functions for a concentration of people, as opposed to an MCD (Minor Civil Division), which is generally created to provide services or administer an area without necessary regard to population. An Incorporated Place can be a City, a City and Borough, a Borough, a Municipality, a Town, a Village, or rarely, Undesignated.

2. A consolidated government is a unit of local government for which the functions of an Incorporated Place and its County or Minor Civil Division (MCD) have merged. The legal aspects of this action may result in both the primary Incorporated Place and the County or MCD continuing to exist as legal entities, even though the County or MCD performs few or no governmental functions or has no elected officials. Where this occurs, and where one or more other Incorporated Places in the County or MCD continue to function as separate governments, even though they have been included in the consolidated government, the primary Incorporated Place is referred to as a Consolidated City.

5 – Mapping Basics
This chapter provides instructions on several basic tasks you are likely to perform with StreetPro data, including how to display and label map layers and use the Info tool.

These topics are also covered in the MapInfo Professional documentation set.

In this chapter:

Displaying StreetPro Layers 78Finding Information 78Changing the Display Style of a Map Layer 79Labeling Layer Features 80


Displaying StreetPro LayersEach table that you open in StreetPro (refer to Opening StreetPro Feature Layers in Chapter 4 on page 35) displays as a separate layer in the Map window. For example, streets in New York State display in a layer called nystreets, and point objects that represent parks display in a layer called nyslanduse.

Use Map > Layer Control or click to manage the layers in the Map window. Every layer that displays in the Map window is listed in the Layer Control dialog box. From this dialog box you can:

• Turn off the display of some layers without removing them from the map.• Change how the layers look while they are displayed in the Map window.• Set the labeling conditions for each layer.• Set whether a layer is editable, selectable, or visible.• Set the zoom level so that local features display only when you are in close enough to

see the detail.• Re-order the layers to hide or expose other map features.• Remove layers from, or add other layers to, the window.

Layer Control is the central location for controlling what you can do and see in the Map window. The MapInfo Professional documentation set (User’s Guide, Reference, and Online Help) provides thorough discussions of working with Layer Control.

Finding Information A basic function of displaying digital maps is the ability to find information about a map feature.

The easiest way to do this is to use the Info tool. Simply click the Info button on the Main Toolbar and click on a map object. Information about every map object at that point displays in the Info Tool window. If there is more than one object listed in the window, click on the name of the feature in the window to expand the data associated with its object.



Changing the Display Style of a Map LayerAt some time you may need to change how features in a layer look on the map. You can do this from the Autoloader and Layer Control. Use the Autoloader to change the display of a layer before you open it in a Map window; use Layer Control to change a layer’s display after you open the Map window. To change the display settings for a layer:


• From the Autoloader, click Layer Options.• From Layer Control, highlight the layer you wish to change and double-click it to

display its Properties.



2. The Layer Display dialog box appears:

The Layer Display dialog box shown is from Layer Control. The equivalent dialog box in the Autoloader does not contain the Show Line Direction, Show Nodes and Show Centroids check boxes.

3. Ensure that the Style Override box is checked and click the button immediately below it to display a new dialog box, which allows you to make changes to the selected symbols. The options in this box depend upon the layer you have selected and whether the features of that layer are editable. Typically, you can choose a new color, style and/or type for the feature. Click OK to return to the Layer Display dialog box.

4. Make any necessary changes to zoom layering by selecting the Display with Zoom Range check box and entering minimum and maximum zoom distances. Zoom layering ensures that your maps are readable by restricting the display of label and detail based on distance.

5. After you have completed your display option changes, click OK.

Additionally, you can use templates to customize the look of your map. This is particularly helpful if you want to maintain a particular look for a map as information changes.

Labeling Layer FeaturesNo map is complete without labels to identify its features. To label an entire layer automatically, you can use the Label feature in the StreetPro Autoloader or Layer Control dialog box. If the layers are not yet open and you are using the Autoloader, you can change the label features from within the Autoloader itself. (For more about using



the Autoloader to label map features, refer to Labeling with the Autoloader in Chapter 2 on page 29.) You can also use the Layer Control dialog box to make the label changes once the Map window is open. The two features have almost identical functionality. The difference lies in the look of the dialog box and where the settings are saved.

Labeling with Layer ControlUse the Label Display tab of the layer’s Properties to change the settings for a layer that is already open. To change label settings via Layer Control:1. With the Map window active, click Layer Control.

2. Double-click the required layer and switch to the Label Display tab:

3. Make the desired changes and click OK.

4. Ensure that the Visible box for the layer is ticked.

5. To automatically label the layer with the new settings, ensure that Automatic Labels are turned on. Click OK to view the Map window with the changed settings.

Alternatively, you can leave Automatic Labels off, and, having clicked OK to return to the Map window, click the individual map objects after clicking the Label tool.

6. To save the label settings, save the workspace. You do not need to save the labels as a separate layer.

When using the Label button, MapInfo Professional only labels the topmost selectable feature layer. To label lower layers, hold down the Ctrl button.To change the styles for individual labels, double-click on the individual labels using the pointer tool and make the changes in the Label Style dialog box.



Enhancing your Maps with Curved LabelsYou can improve the look of your arc and polyline labels by making them follow the curve of the particular line. Curved labels can display for any arc/polyline feature, such as streets, railroads, ferry lines and rivers. This functionality is supported in the Map window and persists when you move the map to a Layout. You cannot, however, create curved labels in the Layout window itself.

Workspaces created with curved labels, a feature added in MapInfo Professional 9.0, cannot be displayed in earlier versions of MapInfo Professional.

You can upgrade workspaces created with versions of MapInfo Professional prior to Version 9.0, by opening the layer with the labels you want to change, selecting the curved label options using the steps described in this section, and saving the workspace again.

Here, there are curved labels on the Streets, Railroads and Rivers layers.

Setting the Curved Labels Option

The Curved Labels option gives you more control over the way your labels display.

To display labels along a curve:

1. Display the map for which you wish to change the labels.

2. With the Map window active, click Layer Control.



3. Highlight the layer that contains the labels you want to change and ensure that Automatic Labels are turned on.

4. Ensure that the Visible box for the layer is ticked.

5. Select the layer’s Properties and switch to the Label Display tab:

6. Click the Curve labels along segments option to display the layer’s labels along the curve of the line. These labels are anti-aliased automatically to improve the display.

If you use the Anchor Points in the Placement panel to set the labels’ positions, the curved labels are positioned according to your selection:

• Left (top, center or bottom) - the curved labels are left-justified (top, center or bottom) starting at the beginning of the arc/polyline.

• Center (top, center or bottom) - the curved labels are centered (top, center or bottom) on the midpoint of the arc/polyline.

• Right (top, center or bottom) - the curved labels are right-justified (top, center or bottom) at the end of the arc/polyline.

The length of the polyline(s) affect how the label is positioned. The longer the polyline(s), the more predictably the labels display.

7. Click OK to save this option, and OK again to display the new label(s).



Editing Curved Labels

All of the editable properties of curved labels are supported in the workspace.

You can use the Label tool on the Main toolbar to move curved labels. Make sure you have already selected the Curve labels along segments option in the Label Options dialog box for the layer that you wish to change.

In these instructions, the term ‘line’ can refer to either a polyline or arc segment.

1. Click on the Main toolbar to display the Layer Control dialog box.

2. Highlight the layer for which you wish to move the labels in the list.

3. Click the Selectable check box in this layer.

4. Click OK to redisplay the Map window.

5. Click on the Main toolbar.

6. Click the line on which you wish to reposition the label.

7. Click the new location for the label until the label displays as you want it to.

If the segment you select does not have a label name associated with it in the data, then no label displays.

Understanding your Data and Curved Labels

When you select curved autolabeling, MapInfo Professional attempts to create a curved label for every arc/polyline record in a map, just as it does for non-curved labels.

For example, in street maps, the street can be made of several polylines or one long polyline. The length and number of the polylines, the rules that govern whether a curved label can be created, and the labeling options you choose, all affect which curved labels are created and where they display.

What to Expect from Curved Labels

The Curved Labels feature uses complex algorithms that are designed to enhance the display of your polyline/arc features. There are several rules that determine whether MapInfo Professional can display a curved label.



• MapInfo Professional can only draw curved labels using TrueType fonts. If you select a non-TrueType font, MapInfo Professional substitutes a comparable TrueType font, so the label you chose may display differently than you expect. Also, if you change a horizontal label using a non-TrueType to a curved label, the new label may display differently due to the font substitution.

• Part of the label string must fit along the polyline/arc that it is labelling. If it cannot fit, MapInfo Professional determines that the label is too long and discards it.

• MapInfo Professional cannot draw curved labels for polylines that are very jagged (however, it does depend on the curvature of the line).

• Labels that curve back onto themselves are discarded and do not display.• Curved labels follow the same rules for overlap detection, duplicate text, and partial

segment labeling as non-curved labels. Each of these rules affect how and when MapInfo Professional displays the labels.

• You cannot drag curved labels as you can other labels.• You can create curved labels with the Label tool at any point along a polyline/arc.• You can reposition the curved auto labels using the Label tool.• Curved and non-curved labels persist for layers in the workspace.• The Labeler utility does not support curved labels, so you cannot transfer curved

labels to the Cosmetic layer.• The curved labels functionality supports double-byte characters.• The Label Lines controls are disabled whenever you select the Curve labels along

segments option.• You cannot underline curved labels.

6 – Working with Seamless
Maps

Seamless maps are available when you purchase StreetPro by State, 6-State pack, or for the entire United States. These seamless maps allow you to open all StreetPro layers for an entire State at once. The maps are organized by State on the StreetPro product media under the \_seam directory for the particular State (for example, \ny\_seam), depending upon which maps you purchased.

In this chapter:

Opening Seamless Maps 87Selecting Objects in Seamless Maps 88Moving Seamless Map Data to Your Hard Drive 90

6 – Working with Seamless Maps

Opening Seamless MapsTo open all layers for a State from the county seamless directory use the Open command in conjunction with the workspaces Files of type option. Select the required SS.WOR from the StreetPro product media, where SS represents the two-letter State abbreviation. For example, to open all the seamless StreetPro maps for Massachusetts, select ma.wor or ma_90.wor from the_seam directory Open dialog box.

When you open the seamless workspace, all the county files will open as the entire state. The layers for the State will open and be zoomed according to pre-set defaults, which center around the State’s capital.

Seamless Map Table StructureThe table structure for each seamless map layer contains the path and file name information that MapInfo Professional and MapX need in order to create the seamless map. Think of this table structure as a series of pointers to the County-level map layer where the actual map object information is stored. This table is internal to MapInfo Professional and MapX.



Selecting Objects in Seamless MapsBecause County-tiled seamless maps are made up of a collection of County-level base tables, it is not possible to select objects directly in MapInfo Professional or MapX. You can, however, query the appropriate County base table, add the query to the Map window, and perform Find Selection on the query.

Follow the steps below to select objects from seamless map layers:

1. From the Window menu, select New Browser Window. In the Browse Table dialog box, browse to the appropriate layer table for the seamless map, and click OK. For example, select ma_railroads to browse the Railroads table for Massachusetts.

2. In the Select Base Table dialog box, select the County table you want to browse. You can either enter the County name or you can press Enter to display a list of Counties to choose from.

3. Select the County information you want to browse and click OK.

Field DescriptionType

(Width) Indexed

Table File name and path for each County (for example, ...\ca\caalam\caalamstreets.tab;...\wa\waking\wakingexpressways.tab).

Char(100)

No

Description Name of the table referred to in the Table column (for example, Alameda, CA Streets; King, WA Highways).

Char(40) No



You can also click directly on OK to bring up a list of County names for the seamless map. Move through the list using the Up and Down buttons until you have highlighted the County you want. Click OK. A Browser window of the County-level layer displays. For example, select Berkshire ma~primaryhwys to display the Primary Highways for Berkshire Country, Massachusetts in a Browser window.

Figure 1: Select Base Table with Browser

The Browser will show the eight-character root file name in the title bar (maberkprimaryhwys), not the County or State abbreviation.

4. Select Query > SQL Select to display the SQL Select dialog box. In this dialog box, enter a Select statement and click OK to select certain records from the base table.For example, to select all segments of Interstate 90 E from the maberkprimaryhwys table, your condition expression should read:Name = “I 90 E”

(Ensure that you enter the quotation marks to ensure that the syntax is correct.)5. Click the Map window to make it active. 6. Click the Layer Control button on the Main toolbar to display the Layer Control

dialog box.7. Add the query you just created to the map by clicking the Add button in the

Layers box and selecting the query from the list.8. Select Query > Find Selection to select all segments in the Map window that match

your query criteria.



If you are concerned about the map drawing speed after you have added the query to your map, you can make the query layer invisible by clearing the Visible check box for that layer in Layer Control. The objects can still be selected, but the map will only draw the objects once instead of twice.

Moving Seamless Map Data to Your Hard DriveThe StreetPro seamless maps are designed to run directly from the product media. They are not installed along with the rest of StreetPro unless you install an entire State of data. To move the data to your hard drive for faster map drawing, copy the top level State directory to your hard drive. This will bring over all County directories and the _seam subdirectory.

For example, to run the seamless maps for New York from your machine:

1. Copy the \ny directory locally.

2. Open the NY_MAP.WOR workspace.

3. All seamless layers for New York display in a Map window.

7 – Geocoding Data using
StreetPro Classic

If you purchased StreetPro Classic, you can geocode your own tables of data to street addresses.

This chapter describes the process of ‘geocoding’, whereby you assign geographic coordinates to your own data records and match them to addresses in the Classic (refer to the StreetPro Classic in Chapter 4 on page 36).

In this chapter:

Displaying Your Data on the Map 92General Procedures for Geocoding 92

7 – Geocoding Data using StreetPro Classic

Displaying Your Data on the MapBefore you can display your own data alongside StreetPro data (for example, to display trends, etc.), you must first geocode it by assigning X and Y coordinates to each record. These coordinates are assigned by matching geographic information in your data to the geographic information in the StreetPro Classic map (which already has X and Y coordinates associated with its records).

For example, to assign X and Y coordinates to a customer record whose address is 127 Exchange Street, MapInfo Professional reads the address and looks for a matching address in the appropriate StreetPro Classic table (geocoder.tab). When MapInfo Professional matches 127 Exchange Street in your customer table to 127 Exchange Street in the StreetPro Classic table, it assigns the corresponding X and Y coordinates to your customer record.1

You can then view the geocoded record by mapping your customer table.

General Procedures for GeocodingFollow the geocoding procedure below to geocode against the StreetPro Classic table.

1. In MapInfo Professional, select Open from the File menu. The Open dialog box displays.

MapInfo Professional can directly read files formatted in dBASE/FoxBASE, Lotus 1–2–3, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, and Delimited ASCII.

If your file is in a different format, save the file into Delimited ASCII format and open it using that format. For more information on the Open dialog box, refer to the MapInfo Professional Reference Guide.

2. Open the appropriate StreetPro Classic table.

For example, to geocode your records in Maricopa County, Arizona, open the table geocoder. It does not need to be displayed in a Map window.

3. Use a refining table as required (refer to Geocoding with a Refining Table on page 93). For example, open the County ZIP Code table that ships with MapInfo Professional (uszipbdy.tab). It, too, does not have to be displayed in a Map window.

1. Even though MapInfo Professional assigns X and Y coordinates to each record in your database, you cannot view these coordinates in a Browser: they remain internal to the database.



4. Select Table > Geocode. The Geocode dialog box displays. Fill in the dialog box with the appropriate tables and click OK.

MapInfo Professional attempts to match the addresses in your database with the addresses in the StreetPro Classic table and assigns the corresponding X and Y coordinates to your records. Refer to Explaining the Geocode Dialog Box on page 93.

5. To display your records, select Map > Layer Control and click the Add button to add your database to the Map window. To further enhance your view, you can select the Label check box to label your data on the Map.

Geocoding with a Refining TableTo increase the likelihood of a match, consider using a refining table. For example, to geocode your Cook County, Illinois customer database, consider the record that reads 112 2nd Street. This street cuts across four ZIP Codes. In order for MapInfo Professional to match to the appropriate record, use the ZIP Code field as well as the address field.

A successful match is one that matches both the street address and ZIP Code. Without the ZIP Code refining table, your customer record would have been geocoded to the first 2nd Street that MapInfo Professional found in the StreetPro Enhanced Address table.

The U.S. ZIP Code boundary table (uszipbdy.tab) can be found on the MapInfo Professional product media under the directory \Data\Map_Data\NAmerica\USA.

Alternatively, you can use the StreetPro Geocoding layers for this refining procedure (refer to the Layer Naming Conventions for MapMarker in Chapter 4 on page 32).

Explaining the Geocode Dialog Box



Geocode table

Use the drop-down list to select the name of your database table.

Using column

Use the drop-down list to select the column name in your database that contains the street addresses.

Boundary column

To refine your address matching, use the drop-down list to select the column in your database that contains ZIP Codes.

You can only specify this column AFTER you select the boundary refining table (USZIPBDY) in the Optional box.

Search table

Use this drop-down list to select the StreetPro table that contains the street addresses.

For Objects in ColumnUse this drop-down list to select the column in the StreetPro table that contains the street address information (the column called Name).Optional Group: Refine search with tableUse this drop-down list to select the refining table USZIPBDY.Optional Group: Using boundary column nameUse this drop-down list to select the column from the refining table that contains the boundary name (the column called ZIP).

Geocoding ModeThe Geocode dialog box offers you the choice of geocoding your data automatically or interactively:

• When you geocode a table automatically, MapInfo Professional only geocodes exact matches and ignores all other records. This is the quicker method, since MapInfo Professional requires no user interaction once the geocoding process begins.

• When you geocode interactively, MapInfo Professional pauses when it fails to match a record and lets you select from a list of close matches.

We recommend that you geocode using the automatic mode first and then geocode interactively to match the remaining records. You can select additional options by selecting the Options button in the Geocode dialog box. The following dialog box is displayed:



For the best results, perform one geocoding pass with the Try Substitutions from MapInfow.abb check box selected, and then another pass with it deselected.

The StreetPro Data Installer updates the MapInfow.abb file on your system with new abbreviation information for the street suffix Avenue, and renames your old MapInfow.abb has been renamed to MapInfow.abr. Both files are in the MapInfo Professional program directory. Ensure that you are using the updated file for the best geocoding results.

8 – Editing StreetPro Layer
Information

Whether you want to change the line style of State highways, add or delete streets, or add landmarks to your map, you need to edit a map layer. This chapter describes two editing procedures: one for editing the Classic layer (assuming you have StreetPro Classic); and one for editing all other layers.

You can only edit one map layer at a time.

In this chapter:

Editing the Classic Layer 97Editing the Other StreetPro Layers 102

Before you begin, ensure that you have Read/Write access to the tables. If you are running StreetPro from the product media, you must first copy the files locally to edit them.

8 – Editing StreetPro Layer Information

Editing the Classic LayerThe Classic Layer is made up of three relational tables, two of which are editable. To edit this layer, you need to make changes to the two component tables, changes which will then be reflected in the main Classic table (ssgeocoder.tab).

These Classic Layer editable tables are called the segments table (ssgeocode1.tab for the particular State) and the names table (ssgeocode2.tab for the particular State). The segments table contains graphic information, including street segments, address ranges and class codes. The names table contains street names. You can display the segments table in a Browser or Map window, just like any other StreetPro map. The names table can only be displayed in a Browser since it does not contain any graphic information.

Both the segments table and the names table include a column called MI_Refnum (MapInfo Professional Reference number) that allows you to associate street names with street segments and address ranges. This column contains MapInfo Professional reference numbers that are common to the three component Classic tables.

There is one unique Mi_Refnum for each street name, different address ranges can have the same reference number. This is because each address range does not represent one street, but merely a segment of that street. It is common for two non-contiguous streets in the same County to have the same name. In some Counties there may be two, three, or more Main Streets, each in a different town or city. These street segments will also share a common reference number, even though the streets may be in different towns.

Neither the segments nor names tables can be opened with the Autoloader application. You must open these tables separately using File > Open.

Object Selection MethodsYou can use various of methods to select streets, depending on the nature of your task:

• You can use the Select tool to choose segments individually.• You can use the Radius Select or Boundary Select tool to select multiple streets.



Adding a Street to StreetPro ClassicConsider the case where you want to add a new street segment to the StreetPro Classic. Since the street segment is new, you need to add the graphic object (the line segment or polyline) and address ranges to the segments table. If the name of the street does not currently exist in the names table, you need to add the new name to the names table.

To add a street to StreetPro Classic map:

1. From the File menu in MapInfo Professional, select Open followed by the segments table (SSGeocode1 for the particular State) as a Map window.

2. Open the names table (SSGeocode2 for the particular State) in a Browser window.

3. Determine if the new street segment’s name already exists in the names table. This can be done on the Query menu by clicking SQL Select. To do this, select all records from the names table where:

Name = “your street”

• If no records are selected, you need to add a new record in the names table. Proceed to step 4.

• If the street name is found in the Browser window, note the MI_Refnum. This is the MI_Refnum to be used for the new record in the segments table. Skip to step 5.

4. Click the names title bar to make the Browser active. Click New Row from the Edit menu. MapInfo Professional appends an empty record to the end of the Browser window.

5. Type the new street name into this empty record. The new street name needs a corresponding MapInfo Professional reference number to associate it with the street segment. Type in a unique reference number, for example 900000. (We suggest that you start labeling new names with this number because such a strategy will easily enable you to differentiate between new and old reference numbers. Add any additional reference numbers sequentially.)

6. Make the Map window active, and from the Map menu, click Layer Control. Make the segments layer editable.

7. Draw the new street segment in the Map window.

8. Select the new segment with the Info tool. MapInfo Professional displays an Info tool box for the segment. Type the appropriate textual information into the record’s fields. As a minimum, you need to specify the Name and MI_Refnum. (Use the MI_Refnum determined in step 3 if the street already existed in the names table; otherwise, use the new MI_Refnum that you created in step 5.)



9. Repeat from step 5 for each additional new segment with the same name.

10.Save both the SSGeocode1 and SSGeocode2 tables when you have finished.

Deleting a Street from StreetPro ClassicBecause deleting a street only requires the removal of its graphic object, you do not have to open the names table (SSGeocode2). You only have to make the changes to the segments table (SSGeocode1).

Proceed as follows:

1. Open the segments table (SSGeocode1 for the particular State) in a Map window.

2. Click the Layer Control button on the Main toolbar to display the Layer Control dialog box, and make the segments layer editable.

3. Using the SQL Select tool, click the segment that you want to delete from the Map window.


• Press the Delete key • Select Clear from the Edit menu.

5. Repeat the process for each additional segment that you want to delete.

Reshaping a Street in StreetPro ClassicYou may want to reshape a street in the StreetPro Classic. This may happen when StreetPro source data does not reflect recent changes in a street. Since the existing segment already has a name, you only have to edit the segments file.

1. Select Open from the File menu, and then open the segments table (SSGeocode1 for the particular State) in a Map window.


3. Zoom to the location of the street that you want to reshape.

4. Using the SQL Select tool, click on the street that you want to reshape.

5. To reshape a segment, click an endpoint, hold the mouse button down, and drag the endpoint to the new position. If the street is a polyline, select Reshape from the Edit menu.



6. Repeat step 3 to step 5 for each street that you want to reshape. When you are done, save the segments table.

Editing the Name of an Existing StreetThere are two types of corrections that you might want to make to a street name:

• Edit the street name for all occurrences of the street. For example, when all streets that are named Elm St should actually be named Elm Av.

• Edit the street name for some occurrences of the street. For example, several streets that are currently called Unknown St should be named Oak St.

Editing the Street Name for All Occurrences of a Street

To edit a street name for all occurrences of a street (the Elm St example above), do the following:

1. Open the names table (SSGeocode2 for the particular State) in a Browser window.

2. Find the name of the street. This can be done from the Query menu, by clicking SQL Select. Select records from your names table that satisfy Name = “your street name”.

3. In the Query Browser window that displays, type in the correct name of the street. The system updates the names table with the new information automatically.

4. From the File menu, select Save Table to save the changes.

Editing the Street Name for Some Occurrences of a Street

There are situations where you might want to change the name of some streets that share the same name (the Unknown St example in Editing the Name of an Existing Street above). To rename segments like this, change the reference number of the segments that you want to reflect the new name, as outlined below:

1. Open the names table (SSGeocode2 for the particular State) in a Browser window, and the segments table (SSGeocode1 for the particular State) in a Map window.

2. Determine if the new name for the group of streets already exists in the names table. This can be done using Query > SQL Select. Select all records from the names table where Name = “your street”.

• If no records are selected, you need to add a new record in the names table. Go to step 3.

• If a record is selected, note the MI_Refnum. Use this MI_Refnum for the group of streets that you will select, and then skip to step 5.



3. Click on the title bar of the names Browser window to make it active. Add a new record to the names table from the Edit menu by clicking New Row.

4. Type the new street name into this empty record. The new street name needs a corresponding MapInfo Professional reference number to associate it with the street segments. Type in a unique reference number, for example 900000. (We suggest that you start labeling new names with this number because such a strategy will easily enable you to differentiate between new and old reference numbers. Add any additional reference numbers sequentially.) Use this number as the MI_Refnum for the street segments that you will select in step 5.

5. Click on the title bar of the segments Map window to make it active. Using the Select tool, click on all of the segments that you want to rename.

6. From the Window menu, select New Browser Window, and open a Browser window for the Selection table.

7. Click on the title bar of the selection Browser window. Click in the MI_Refnum column of each selected record and change the MapInfo Professional Reference number to the MI_Refnum that you determined in step 2 or the MI_Refnum that you added in step 4.

8. With the names Browser window active, select Save Table from the File menu to retain your changes.

Editing Line Styles and Colors in StreetPro ClassicYou can also change the line styles and colors of streets in the StreetPro Classic. For example, you might want to indicate that a particular street segment is under repair or that a group of streets constitutes a sanitation pickup route.

To edit the line style and color of a StreetPro Classic street:

1. Open the segments table (SSGeocode1 for the particular State) in a Map window.


3. Select all the streets that you want to change.

4. Select Line Style from the Options menu. The Line Style dialog box displays. Select a line style, color and width, and click OK.

5. MapInfo Professional applies the styles you have chosen to the selected streets. To save your changes, select the Save Table option from the File menu.



Alternatively, you can make temporary style changes when you first open a layer with the Autoloader. From the Open dialog box in Autoloader, click the Default Display Options button to access the Options dialog box. Check the Display Style Override dialog box and make changes to any or all of the available styles.

Editing the Other StreetPro LayersEditing the other layers in StreetPro does not involve making changes to component tables, like you do for the StreetPro Classic. These layers consist of only one table per layer (per geographic area) instead of three, and so your changes are created and saved directly to the table.

Below you can find the standard method for making any StreetPro layer editable (with the exception of the StreetPro Classic). This is followed by instructions for several common editing procedures, including changing the boundary color and fill pattern, reshaping boundaries, changing point symbols, and using style overrides.

Making a StreetPro Layer EditableTo make a StreetPro layer editable:

1. Select Layer Control to display the Layer Control dialog box.

2. In the Layer list, check the Editable check box (with the pencil icon) beside the layer you want to edit.

3. Click OK. The Drawing Tools in the Toolbar become active and you are ready to make changes to the layer.

For more information on using the editing tools, refer to your MapInfo Professional Online Help.

Changing the Fill Patterns of BoundariesTo change the color or fill pattern of a boundary permanently:

1. Select the boundary using one of the selection methods described in Object Selection Methods on page 97.

2. From the Options menu, select Region Style. The Region Style dialog box displays.

3. Scroll through the fill and color palettes to choose the desired color/fill. Click OK to apply the changes.



To make a temporary change to the fill pattern for the entire layer, use the Autoloader to set the display before opening the layer in a Map window (see in Chapter 3 on page 14). If the layer is already open in Layer Control, click the Display button and make the changes by overriding the current style (See Changing the Display using Style Override on page 104).

Reshaping a Boundary or Line FeatureTo reshape a boundary or line feature (for example, the Streets layer):

1. Select the object (refer to Object Selection Methods on page 97), and then select Reshape from the Edit menu. MapInfo Professional places nodes (small boxes) at every juncture where two segments meet.

2. Move or delete existing nodes or add new nodes.

3. Select File > Save to save your changes.

This is very useful if, for example, boundaries change over time. You can simply move, delete, or add nodes to update the boundary.

You cannot use this method to reshape a street in the StreetPro Classic. Refer to Editing the Classic Layer on page 97 for instructions on editing a relational streets table.

Changing Point Landmark SymbolsTo change the symbol of a particular point landmark:

1. Select the point (refer to Object Selection Methods on page 97) and then select Symbol Style from the Options menu.

2. Scroll through the symbol and color palettes and choose the desired color/symbol.

3. Click OK to apply the changes.



Changing the Display using Style OverrideThe Style Override feature in Layer Control enables you to change the way objects display on the screen without making permanent changes to your StreetPro tables. For example, you may want to change the color of the StreetPro water features to better match other layers in your Map window or for better printed output. Follow the instructions below to override the display style of any StreetPro map layer.

To override the display attributes:

1. Select Layer Control, highlight the required StreetPro layer, and click the Display button. The Display Options dialog box displays.

2. Check the Style Override button in the Display Mode group. The large gray button that represents the object’s style picker is now active.

3. Make the desired style changes.

4. Click OK to return to Layer Control.

5. Click OK again to return to the Map window. The layer redisplays using the new style attributes.

You can also override the styles for a layer when you open it via the Autoloader. See Explaining the Choose Layer Options Dialog Box in Chapter 2 on page 26 for more details.

A – Listing miCodes
Following an illustration of What are miCodes? on page 106, this appendix lists the miCodes that are used to provide feature identification in StreetPro layer data. You can use these codes to refine your searches and provide even more detail in your maps.

The miCodes listed in this chapter represent a comprehensive list. Each product’s miCodes are determined by the source data, and so not all the features listed in this appendix are present in every StreetPro product.

What are miCodes?These are MapInfo-specific feature codes that provide feature identification by general category, subcategory, and subfeature.

Breaking data down into these categories allows you to search for features on either a broad or specific basis. For example, if your organization wants to know where all the Public Transportation hubs are in a particular area, you could run the following query in MapInfo Professional using Query > SQL Select with the relevant Landmarks table:

• 10 refers to the Points Of Interest category (which equates to the Landmarks layer in StreetPro).

• 32 refers to the Stations subcategory, which includes Ferry Terminals, Railway Stations and Bus Terminals.

C – Getting Most from Bonus
Content

When you purchase StreetPro you receive some bonus data. The Bonus Content data contains a wide range of additional reference maps which you can use to enhance the look and understanding of your current maps. The StreetPro Bonus directories provide additional data for creating a complete map of the United States. The data consists of various nation wide and international tables and maps for displaying and viewing at higher zooms. Bonus content data can be combined with state or county tile data (or seamless tables) for a better display. There are several map files (workspaces) that allow to view all data on a map. There are complete, nationwide address layers for most of the continental U.S. that can assist you in geocoding your data.

Take a peek inside! The Bonus Content information may contain the very data you need to make your maps complete.

In this section:

What Data is in the Bonus Content? 137Bonus Content vs. Other StreetPro Data 145Using the Bonus Content Data 146


What Data is in the Bonus Content?Depending on the StreetPro package you have purchased the bonus data is included in a seperate disk. The directories include \MAPS, \SEAMLESS, \MAJOR_HIGHWAYS. The \MAPS has all maps (\Maps\Bonus Maps (workspaces)) and US and worldwide data (\Maps\Bonus Data); \SEAMLESS contains county and state tile seamless mapping tables; \MAJOR_HIGHWAYS has major roads and highways US wide data tables. The contents of the directory are listed in the What’s in the \MAPS Directory? and What’s in the \SEAMLESS Directory? sections.

What’s in the \MAPS Directory?The \MAPS directory consists of two folders: \Bonus Data and \Bonus Maps (workspaces).

\Seamless Directory Table Names and Descriptions (continued)




Integrating the Bonus Content and the State-Tiled Data into one MapDepending upon the type of data tiling you have purchased (county-tiled or state-tiled), copy the contents (USA* all the seamless tables: USA_<layer type>.*) of either /seamless/county or /seamless/state to the same logical directory where you put your data.

If you are working in a UNIX environment, you can use the pre-created seamless maps from the \SEAMLESS directory on the Bonus Content media.

To make use of these project files follow these steps:

1. Copy all tiled data to a single location.

Note All files should be placed in a single directory with no subdirectories.

You can use the installer or copy the data by hand. You will need to copy by hand if you are working on a non-Windows platform. For example:

• If you are using Windows and you purchased U.S., state-tiled data, all 52 state directories will be underneath a directory like C:\DATA\STREETPRO\US\.

• If you are using Solaris and you purchased U.S., county-tiled data, all 52 state directories will be underneath a directory like /DATA/STREETPRO/US. In this case, it will be necessary to move the data out of the State subdirectories manually, to place all the files in a single folder.

Note Data files copied manually to a Windows system are generally read-only.

1. Copy the Bonus Content data to a single location. Copy the contents of \MAPS to the same logical directory where you put the first set of data in step 1. In the above examples you would copy the Bonus Content data to D:\DATA\STREETPRO\US\ or /DATA/STREETPRO/US.

2. Open the Project Files (STREETPRO_USA.WOR, or STREETPRO_USA.MDF or STREETPRO_USA.MWS) located in the \MAPS\PROJECTFILES\ on the Bonus Content.

You can open the workspace immediately.

To use the MDF files:

a. Insert the correct path information into the MDF file.b. Open up streetpro_usa.mdf file in a text editor and search for the text tag “$dir$”.c. Replace that tag with the data location path (as in D:\DATA\STREETPRO\US or

/data/streetpro/us in the previous examples).



Bonus Content vs. Other StreetPro DataThe Bonus Content data was developed for users who want to see their regional information on nationwide or international background or to enhance their local data with information that is only available (or relevant) nationwide. The reference maps on the Bonus Content media work best at a zoom level of 1000 to 6000 miles and are not really intended for close up work. If you zoom in on the reference maps, and lay your county- or state-tiled data over them, you will notice that the borders of your local maps are much more accurate. The advantage of the national layers are the type of information that is available to you and the amount of information available.

These are our recommendations for working with the Bonus Content data.

• For working with local and regional data, rely on your county- and state-tiled data.• For area assessments (several states in the East or one or two in the West) we

suggest you use the seamless maps provided in the \SEAMLESS directory on your Bonus Content augmented with your more local data.

• For regional, national, or international boundary perspectives, use the \MAPS Bonus Content files.

For best results, we recommend that you open the StreetPro workspaces (WOR), geosets GST), map definition files (MDF), or workspace files (MWS), depending upon your application, and use your county- or state-tiled data to refine these maps. This gives you the power of both.

These recommendations are outlined in the next figure.



Using the Bonus Content DataThe Bonus Content data can enhance the look and the completeness of your maps. This section describes how to load this data so that you can use it.

Using the Bonus Content Data with Your MapInfo ProductTo display the pre-packaged Bonus Content data in your MapInfo product:

1. In the \MAPS\Bonus Maps (workspaces) directory on the Bonus Content media, open one of the following files:

• If you are using MapInfo Professional, open the US_seamless.wor (use with seamless maps) or BaseMap.wor (Bonus Content maps only) workspace, which is in the \MAPS directory on the Bonus Content media.

• If you use MapXtreme Java Edition, open the *.mdf file instead, which is in the \MAPS\Bonus Maps (workspaces) directory on the Bonus Content media.

• If you use MapXtreme, open the *. mws file, which is in the \MAPS\Bonus Maps (workspaces) directory on the Bonus Content media.



1. Run the Autoloader to open your county- or state-tiled data, depending upon the data that you use. You may want to load a particular template for this data. Click Load Template and select the template you want to load from the list.

In the Map Options drop-down list, select Add to Current Mapper to ensure that your data aligns properly over the StreetPro U.S. Reference workspace.

2. When you have completed these selections, click OK to display the two maps together.

We recommend you save the results to a new table.


D
D – 2010 Source Change
Summary

Source ChangeThe current source of the above data products is TomTom North America, which previously used to create the data using its Dynamap® 2000 product.

During the latter part of 2009, TomTom North America migrated from the above-mentioned Dynamap® 2000 product to its newer MultiNet® product. Pitney Bowes took advantage of the migration in order to grow MapXtreme through a series of ‘Next Generation’ prototypes that were offered for customer feedback. The goals of the prototypes were to:

• take full advantage of the benefits of MultiNet® content;• keep the traditional and well-liked StreetPro ‘look and feel’ intact as

much as possible;• reduce the product footprint by eliminating redundancy; and• where changes needed to be made, make them improvements to

the user experience, i.e.• use more descriptive table and column names;• take advantage of the MultiNet® Functional Road Class to define

coherent street layers;• combine layers of similar features and provide an easy

mechanism of filtering; and• simplify display styles for a cleaner look.

The details are summarized in the following section.


In this ReleaseThe MultiNet® prototypes introduced the following modifications and these have now been incorporated beginning with StreetPro Version 15:

• A change in street classifications from those based on U.S. Census Bureau Feature Codes (CFCC) to those based on Functional Road Class (FRC). The FRC scheme is based on a more robust and comprehensive definition of road classes that have a global application. The FRC scheme has nine levels of road classes numbered 0 to 8, with 0 equal to limited access highways and level 8 equal to trails, paths and pedestrian ways. Using the FRC approach, the following six layers of road classes have been defined:• Expressways (FRC 0 roads)• Primary Highways (FRC 1 roads)• Secondary Highways (FRC 2 roads)• Regional Highways (FRC 3 roads)• Local Routes (FRC 4 & 5 roads)• Streets (FRC 6, 7 & 8 roads)

• The removal of CFCC codes from the source data, such that they are not included in any StreetPro layers. The MapInfo Professional Feature Code (miCode) is intended to be the feature key for selection and filtering. Refer to Listing miCodes on page 105.

• No generalized water layers such as Major Water.• The combination and generalization of some highway layers to better suit small scale

displays:• Primary Highways medium scale (FRC 0 & 1 roads)• Secondary Highways medium scale (FRC 2, 3 & 4 roads)• Local routes medium scale (FRC 5 roads)

These generalized street layers do not precisely match the previous, similarly named street layers in terms of content detail.

• The combination of Points of Interest (POI) into a single Landmarks layer, so that there are no longer any separate Institutions, Recreational Areas, Retail Centers or Transportation Hubs.

• The combination of area features into a single Landuse layer that includes parks, commercial areas, cemeteries, schools and other area features.

Airport areas will continue to be a separate layer. Airport point locations will be in the Landmarks layer and they will be located at entry points to airports instead of at


Appendix D – 2010 Source Change Summary

airport centroids.

Layers such as Congressional Districts, Voter Districts and School Districts for the U.S. have been sourced directly from U.S. Census TIGER data. These layers do not currently align sufficiently well with the MultiNet product and their inclusion will come in a future release.

• The addition of a new field called ShieldCode in all the route feature layers described in Highway Shields Layers in Chapter 4 on page 53. This is a 4-digit integer value that is a unique code for highway shield icons.

• The addition to all tables of a new field named A2_Code that contains, for each feature, the 2 digit state FIPS plus the 3 digit county FIPS code. This field is intended to allow you to select all County-level data for a specific County so that the data can be saved as County-level products.

• The addition of Legend metadata to all tables, except those containing one-way arrows and Highway Shields, in order to facilitate the display of cartographic legends for maps and layouts.

• The addition of a new SignPosts layer that combines all the exits and highway signs found in previous versions of StreetPro. This layer has been enhanced to display the text as it appears on the actual signage.

Comparisons of ‘New’ and ‘Old’ LayersThe two lists below and overleaf cover all the changes introduced in StreetPro Version 15, providing an updated side-by-side comparison of layers. They let you find the data by either the ‘old’ StreetPro 2009.12 names or the ‘new’ StreetPro names:

• The first list (refer to StreetPro Version 15 and above Tables followed by StreetPro 2009.12 Tables on page 139) gives all the StreetPro Version 15 and above tables on the left in alphabetical name order, and, in the adjacent columns to their right, the StreetPro 2009.12 tables that contain the same data.

• The second list (refer to StreetPro 2009.12 and above Tables followed by StreetPro Version 15 and above Tables on page 141) gives all the StreetPro 2009.12 tables on the left in alphabetical name order, and, in the adjacent columns to their right, the tables in StreetPro Version 15 and above that contain the equivalent data.

Key used in the following Lists• The Version 15 and above Table Name column represents the new StreetPro table

names.



• The Version 15 and above Table Alias column represents the new aliases used in the workspace(s) provided.

• The 2009.12 Table Name column represents the old StreetPro table names.• The 2009.12 Table Alias column represents the old StreetPro aliases used in the

previous product workspaces.
