Calculate Mileage Charts and closest destinations with MS MapPoint
Calculate Mileage Charts and Tables with Microsoft MapPoint. Calculate tables for serving customers and suppliers, or to create "road atlas" tables. Can output route distances, travel times and/or estimated costs to Microsoft Excel workbooks or text files. Supports ALL MapPoint routing options including fastest/shortest/preferred-roads/straight-line routes, road speeds, road preferences, rest stops, overnight stays, and avoid polygons. Supports both the North American and European editions of MapPoint (versions: 2006, 2009, 2010, 2011). With the ability to batch process thousands of routes, large mileage charts become practical compared to manual calculations. Requires MS Windows 7, XP, or Vista; and the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0. Also requires Microsoft Excel (32 bit only) for the Excel-export option. New "closest only" option allows the closest destinations to be sorted and quickly found. For example, this could be used to find the closest service locations to specific customers. The rate table feature allows sophisticated route cost calculations. "Per mile" rates can be defined for specific distance intervals, or a fixed cost assigned to an interval (eg. for delivery charges). The new pause/restart function allows very large processing runs to be restarted the next day. Supports the extra large spreadsheets of Excel 2007. Earlier versions have a limit of 256 columns. When using these earlier versions, MPMileCharter can span large charts across multiple tables. Virtually all features are provided in the Basic License for US$60. The Professional License (US$100) adds the "Report Closest Only", and Pause/Restart features. The free 14 day trial includes use of all of these features.
