MapPoint 2006 Released

MapPoint 2006 North America was released on May 1st. The new version includes all updated street and demographic data. The word on the street is that the streets are Navteq 2005 Q3 data. Note that for some reason the Canadian demographics were left out of this release somehow according to the MapPoint B2B blog.

Latitude Longitude are now exposed as properties of the Location object.

Other new features include a lot of GPS and Navigation features including a Night time driving map.

For more information see www.mp2kmag.com and look for an upcoming newsletter.
