G'day,

Whilst hunting around for some stuff on Ebay I found that a vendor has
available 9 copies of MapInfo Professional 5.5 (in original boxes with
manual and tutorial) for $85 each. I have since talked with the vendor about
a bulk purchase and he has agreed to $65 each. This software is the one that
I have used since 1997 for the development of our designs and cannot
recommend it high enough. To buy the latest version costs around USD$1300 so
this represents quite a saving and means not having to go to Ho Chi Minh
City and get a copy from there for $2 that opens you up.

Whilst this version is a bit older the functionality, for the purposes that
I put to use, is quite current as the main aspects of the software that have
changed relate more to the GIS end of the product not the cartographical
end.

Mac users will be limited to those that are able to run Windows on their
machines, such as enabled by the latest OS for Mac (Leopard) and its
preloaded software Bootcamp.

For those of you who are interested I have established a manual for using
MapInfo for Permaculture Design on my website - the link being:

http://picasaweb.google.com/permaculture.biz/MapInfoManual

I drafted this manual as a consultancy for a student and have now published
it online for open access.

Anyways this allows people to get legitimate ownership of some extremely
useful software and raise the quality of their output.

Hi - while there's things techy on the list, last year i was looking
for hi-res urban datasets for a visualisation project, I found that
the NSW Dept of Lands has hires maps for most of NSW (better quality
than googlemaps anyhow) available for free thru an online viewer at -

 http://www.maps.nsw.gov.au/six_viewer.html

Depending on the area the viewer may also allow you to overlay other maps
eg. cadastral, street, topo scans, aerial & satellite imagery.

Cheers, Andrew
