Twenty years ago, Mike Childs began working on a project to create a simple data viewer for the U.S. Geological Survey. Little could he have envisaged that in the subsequent two decades, his pioneering work would lead to the phenom that is Global Mapper. With a worldwide following and an active user base that spans every conceivable industry from aerospace to zoology, Global Mapper has changed, and continues to change, the way geospatial professionals think about GIS.

– A new table-based attribute querying and editing tool
– An innovative interactive utility for adjusting the terrain hillshade
– Drag and drop window docking for improved multiview management
– Expanded online data services for the U.S. and Canada
– Several new predefined raster calculation formulas
– A new option to constrain the 3D view to the extent of the 2D map
– And much more
