ISCIENCES produces commerical software called TerraViva! Global Data Analyst
that is easy to learn and is specifically designed for rapid visualization
of thematic maps. You can import your own data; you can use the thematic
maps and data that come with the product; or, you can add new data by
purchasing companion modules.
