Current Engine Version 5.09 (Last Pub. June 28, 2012) Thanks to:( www.topofusion.com ) For the following happy information: "After announcing that MSRMaps.com (formerly Terraserver) will be closing permanently, Microsoft has decided to keep the service alive. They received enough requests from longtime users and folks that rely heavily on the service. If you sent a note in, thank you!" EverlyMap automatically connects and downloads the 1 meter per pixel USGS tiled orthoimagery provided by the MSRMaps.com servers to a point clicked on your map. The "USGS Photomap" typically is then traced to form your map image. This image can then be exported as a shapefile or used in various other ways.
As began with Version 5.06 EverlyMap is Free to use INDEFINITELY without Registration!
EverlyMap will continue to publish the current state of development as bugs are fixed and improvements made. It is always recommended to download the current engine. It is NOT necessary to uninstall Everlymap prior to downloading and installing newer versions. Uninstall deletes any maps you have created in the EverlyMaps folder.

Download Example Map #1 (outdated, switch to Classic Toolbar for use- to be revised) Last revised by Version 4.51 Topic: Shapefiles are explored in detail.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.
Download Example Map #2 (outdated, switch to Classic Toolbar for use- to be revised) Topic: Learn to Import subsets of large Shapefiles.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.
Download Example Map #3 (outdated, switch to Classic Toolbar for use- to be revised) Topic: Learn to create a point on a map and automatically download a USGS PhotoMap that includes that point.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 Framework.
Download Example Map #4 (outdated, switch to Classic Toolbar for use- to be revised) 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.
Download Example Map #5 (outdated, switch to Classic Toolbar for use- to be revised) 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.
