The Caliper technology is used in the following end-user desktop software: Routes are optimized based on the shortest route, fastest route, ordered route, or other route types based on costs other than time or distance. Maptitude calculates the distance and the direction of single or multiple routes. Maptitude provides route planning tools for route optimization that provide route directions for optimal routes for travel and deliveries. Maptitude geocodes addresses and maintains the geocode precision (the method used to locate the address) in a column in the attribute table. It encapsulates the core GIS functionality of the Caliper mapping software suite of products, and integrates with Microsoft Office, data mapping from various sources including Microsoft Excel, and includes a proprietary BASIC-like programming language (Caliper Script) within a development interface (GISDK) that allows automation of the Maptitude environment. Maptitude is intended for business users but competes at all levels of the GIS market in many different sectors.


The software and technology are designed to facilitate the geographical visualization and analysis of either included data or custom external data. Maptitude is a mapping software program created by Caliper Corporation that allows users to view, edit and integrate maps.
