FAQ
Can we show the ADC map with
our location on it?
Yes. The ADC Maps on CD product allows the user to add labels and
other custom attributes. The resulting image can be printed or saved
as a file.
Do I need special software
to use ADC Maps on CD?
No. Applications that work with the ADC maps on CD TIFF images are:
Adobe Photoshop, Image Composer, Quark, and Microsoft Word. Since
we also have the images compressed, LizardTech's MrSID Viewer will
allow you to view, clip and export portions of the image to TIFF
format for use with any application that can view TIFF images (i.e.
Micrisoft products such as Word, Powerpoint or Paint).
If you want the full use of ADC Maps on CD, then
it is recommended that you have ArcView GIS. This allows you to
not only look up features and addresses, but will also allow you
to add multiple layers of data and images (i.e. Aerial Photography,
graphics, text, etc.).
Can we customize the maps?
Yes. You can customize the maps for internal use. You may not distribute
the original image or "modified" image without expressed
written consent from ADC. 1-800-ADC-MAPS / 1-800-232-6277
Can I put a vicinity map of
our location on the web?
Yes. It is okay to publish a low resolution image showing the vicinity
of your location or locations.
Does the ADC Map on CD overlay
with my MDProperty View data?
Yes. We have geo-referenced the data to MD state plane NAD83 meters,
NAD27 feet and in other states, to their state coordinate system.
We can also convert the data for you as a custom service. This allows
you to use the data with your pre-existing data (MD Technology Toolbox,
USGS Data, Vargis, etc.) and eliminates the frustration of having
the data in different projections.
If we look up an address,
will it tell us the ADC grid as well?
Yes. Using ArcView or ArcExplorer (Free) you can find the address
and identify the ADC grid cell very quickly. This is now being used
for dispatchers and delivery / dervice personnel.
In the ADC book map, I can
look up features such as airports, post offices, universities, etc.,
can I do the same with ADC Maps on CD?
Yes. If you use Arc View, we have designed a special tool to find
these features quickly and easily.
Do you have a project file
(.apr) for use with ArcView?
Yes. We have designed ADC Maps on CD to take advantage of the power
within ArcView. Tools, project files and special scripts allow for
easy installation and use.
Custom Maps
Practical. Economical. Desirable. Custom maps
on CD are all these things, and more. Car rental agencies, banks,
realtors, and public utilities are just some of the businesses that
have benefited from putting their names on our custom maps. They
know that their customers do not simply put these maps away in a
drawer, but use them over and over again, providing a long-term
brand name impact other premiums simply do not equal. And they know
that with ADC, they are associating their names with products that
suggest quality, accuracy, and dependability.
Customization of maps can take a variety
of forms. We can customize the ADC Maps to show store/branch locations
on road or street maps; or add specific logos or symbols. Every
custom map job is unique. We invite you to call us or email us at
the location below. Our Custom Service Representatives (or E-mail
us at custom@adcmap.com)
are available to discuss the specifics of your special project.
