[comp.os.vms] Mapping and Cartographic software

herzlich@NGP.UTEXAS.EDU (Larry Herzlich) (05/23/87)

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with any mapping and
cartographic database software.  We're considering the ESRI Arc/Info
package.

We hope to set up a LAVc with a GPX boot node and hope we can get away
with a couple of RA81's.  I'm also concerned about the amount of I/O
for displaying the graphs on the satellite nodes (probably going to be
VS2000's when the color ones come out).

I'd like to hear any praises or flames about cartographic packages for
the VAX but especially experiences with the Arc/Info package.

Thanks.
