Informatik MapDraw

Informatik Mapdraw Deed Mapper is a useful piece of software developed specifically for land title insurance, real estate, legal and survey professionals. With this, you will be able to create numerous maps based on metes and bounds.

Metes and bounds is a method of describing real estate, used in the United Kingdom and other countries. In order to define and describe boundaries of a parcel or a land, the system usually makes use of physical features of the local geography, coupled with directions and distances. The term ‘metes’ refers to a boundary defined by the measurement of each straight run, specified by a distance between the terminal points and an orientation or direction, while the term ‘bounds’ refers to a general boundary description (e.g. long a stone wall).

Informatik Mapdraw Deed Mapper offers an intuitive interface with a lot of options, which makes using it ideal for daily use. All you have to do in order to generate a map is to add into the program the direction, angle and distance of each section of the deed’s legal description. This application also has the option to add curves, by entering the arc distance or the chord, the radius and the left/right orientation.

The maps generated by this software tool can be saved in a number of different formats, such as PDF, PNG, and GIF and so on. Although the maps are automatically scaled and centered, so as to be displayed properly on your monitor, you should know that when you want to print something, you can specify the scale.

To sum up, Informatik Mapdraw Deed Mapper is a very useful software tool to have on your computer, if you happen to be a land survey professional. Although the interface is intuitive, normal users will not be able to use this program, as it contains a lot of unfamiliar information.
