This is an occasional note describing the 'MicroCAM for Windows' web
site ( http://wolf.its.ilstu.edu/microcam/index.html )
Apologies for cross posting!

What is here --
Links to the following freeware programs by Scott Loomer:
Microcomputer Aided Mapping (MicroCAM v2.03)
Microcomputer MultiSpectral Imaging (MicroMSI v1.13)
-----
Recently added a 'Graphics gallery' section showing the Example CAM
script files that are currently included with MicroCAM plotted out.
-----
A number of Data files that can be used with MicroCAM:
mwdbpoly.zip - Closed polygon and updated World Political Boundaries
(PNT format)
51cogrf.zip - Closed polygon U.S. county boundaries (GRF format)
51stgrf.zip - Closed polygon U.S. State boundaries (GRF format)
plates.zip - World Tectonic Plates in PNT format.
relief.zip - World Oceanic Fracture Zones and Magnetic Lineations (PNT
format)
tissot.zip - Tissot indicatrix, 5 Deg. radius, 30 Deg. increments (GRF
format)
nunavut.zip - Nunavut Territory, Canada - boundary data in .CAM files
(uses Geoline command)

NOTE:
The PNT format can be used directly by Charles Culberson's 'VersaMAP'
and Philip Voxland's 'World'. You can change the above 'GRF' file
extensions to 'DAT' and these files can then be used with 'VersaMAP'.
'Mwdbpoly.zip' is also available in ASCII form for computer systems
other than MSDOS/Windows.
-----
A number of new MicroCAM 'CAM' script file examples are available.
-----
On the Mapping News page you will find a description of the 'Winkel
Tripel' map projection and a PDF file containing often referenced 1944
article on map projection classification by L. P. Lee.

Links to:
Association of American Geographers - Microcomputer Specialty Group -
MicroCAM and CIA's 1995 Relational World Data Bank II polylines on CD.

Ph.D. Associates - CD with updated 'Digital Chart of the World' that can
be read by MicroCAM and several other 'GIS' programs.
