I'm looking for input devices which I can use to digitize data from maps. So far the most promising seems to be the Easyl 2000 tablets, but the price is a little high. (around $400.00). Are there less expensive ways to do this? Has anyone else tried to do this on an Amiga? Email replies, please. gary

I think the PerfectVision software has some edge detection and image processing that might be helpful. It would sure be faster than hand-tracing. You'd probably need to drop into DeluxePaint to clean it up a little... -- _. --Steve ._||__ DISCLAIMER: All opinions are my own.
