----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Can anyone give me an estimate of the size (in US $) of the market for map conversion services in North America, Europe, and worldwide ? I'm talking about converting existing hard-copy maps and engineering drawings to CAD format. I know it's a huge market, but need some figures. If you don't know the figures offhand, but know of some pointers to Websites that would also be appreciated. Any market research people reading this ?
