• Create Maps by using Garmin Handheld GPS to create points, lines, and polygons.
• Create maps by tracing features on 1 meter/pixel USGS PhotoMaps.
• Create maps from Shapefiles. Import projections now include Lat/Long, UTM, and State Plane. These may be NAD27 or NAD83(WS84) Datum. Microsoft Excel can be used to edit Shapefile Theme data in dBase format.
• Create Maps by direct entry of survey calls from land deeds.
• Maps support GIS features. Data types include Text, Integer, Floating Point, and Photographs. Theme data is managed by pattern files.
• Export to Shapefiles fully supported. Metadata files automatically generated and presented for viewing.
• Linked positions can be used to lay out geometric designs, rotate and position them then convert them back to Lat/Lon coordinates.
• The Map Editor is comprehensive and easy to use. Combine map objects from all the various sources into one seamless application.

Version 3.0 was Major upgrade. Current Engine Version 3.25 (Note: requires screen resolution of 800X600. Changes to include 1024X768 pixels are being designed)  Note: Installing newer versions of the Engine does not require uninstall of earlier versions. Existing maps and data are unchanged. It is a good idea to download & install the current version to take advantage of ongoing improvements. Download Procedure: Click one of the download links below then choose "Save" and "Save As" to save it to your desktop. Double-click the file and it will automatically unzip, install, and start the application. This applies to the Engine and all Example Maps. (If should you elect to Uninstall EverlyMap you will find a couple of mouseclicks is all that will be needed- every bit as automated and simple as the Installation phase.)

Note: If you are warned by the unzip utility that downloaded files are damaged or truncated, turn off any Web Accelerator and download again.

EverlyMap is for practical mapping by the non-professional.  "Example Maps" are linked to detailed "Map Guides" for step-by-step tutoring.

  Includes only the Engine (Current Version), the User Guide, and one Example Map to demonstrate EverlyMap's presentation. The file name is EMInstall.exe.

  Revised by Version 3.20 Topic: Shapefiles are explored in detail. Learn how to edit them quite easily. Shapefile functions demonstrated are import, insert corners, move corners, delete corners, conversion between polygons and lines, moving shapes to different coordinates, rotating shapes, linking groups of shapes to maintain their bearing-distance interrelationship as the group is moved, edit data values, add data items, delete data items, create Shapefiles, export Shapefiles, themes and theme management. The file name is Example 1.exe.

  Topic: Learn to Import subsets of large Shapefiles. This Example Imports only the state you choose from a Shapefile that contains the lower 48.  Then Import only the cities of that state from a Shapefile that includes all cities of the US and it's territories.The file name is Example 2.exe.

  Topic: Learn to create a point on a map and automatically download a USGS PhotoMap that includes that point.  The file name is Example 3.exe. This automation requires that the Microsoft .NET Framework be installed on your computer. If it is not, you will be informed when you attempt the Example. The following link is provided for your convenience to download the .

 Topic: This example is one of a few which do not focus on how to use EverlyMap but rather on just why anyone would want to go to the trouble in the first place. It is a residential property map with photographs attached to it's terrestrial  features. Point to a map object and right-click to see (up to 9) photos of it along with any other GIS data. Engine version 3.09 and up include improved photo management. The file name is Example 4.exe.

 Topic: World map. Countries of the World including larger cities. This map can be edited to suit your personal interests and learn the geography of places in the news. Just out of curiosity I mapped the planned sailing route of the Titanic, position of impact, and the wreck location by applying easily found data from the internet. Shows the great circle and rhumb line course layout.  The epicenter of the Tsunami of 26th Dec 2004 was mapped as a simple point, just to see where in the world it was. Engine version 3.12 supports rhumb line measurements. The file name is Example 5.exe.
