MapInfo MapXtreme Java Edition MapInfo's powerful Java-based Internet mapping server for broad deployment of mapping applications.

MapInfo's MapXtreme 2004 on Microsoft® .NET
MapInfo Corporation announced the release of MapXtreme 2004 on Microsoft® .NET. The product represents the merging of two products, MapXtreme and MapX, into a single development platform and leverages the Microsoft Visual Studio .NET environment. The benefit of this new platform is to be able to develop either customized web or client-based applications within a single development toolkit. It also contains support for several Open GIS Consortium specifications. MapXtreme 2004 Product Overview appears in Directions Magazine!

Please Note: Current MapInfo products used on the desktop, including MapInfo Professional and MapXtreme 2005, are not currently supported by MapInfo on Microsoft Vista. MapInfo however, is committed to adding full support for Microsoft Vista in future releases of its products targeted for release later this year.


MapInfo® MapXtreme® Java Edition v4.7 is ideal for Internet deployment of applications.

With a simple click, customers can see their wireless coverage area, find the closest drug store or get driving directions to their next sales calls. And network engineers can visually spot disruptions in their network - automatically notifying customers of service outages.

Applications running on a managed server network offer huge economies of scale - lowering hardware and administrative costs - while dramatically improving application performance, reliability and security. Companies who once found mapping costs prohibitive can now offer it at lower cost per user than ever before.

Multi-Platform

Many organizations using spatial-analysis applications have mixed-hardware environments, or prefer UNIX servers for scalability, performance and reliability. With Java on the server-side, existing UNIX or Windows NT resources can be used. It is integrated with Oracle and can run on with J2EE compliant application servers and almost any browser.

Highly Scalable

For many organizations, making decisions based on location is mission-critical. Mapping applications need to perform well and support all users accessing the Internet or from a corporate intranet. MapXtreme Java leverages the ubiquity and scalability of the Internet enabling customers to deploy mapping in critical applications cost-effectively - throughout the organization.

Write Once, Run Anywhere

When developed using a Java development environment, MapXtreme Java applications can be migrated and reused regardless of future hardware or platform choices.

Fast Application Prototyping/Deployment

To help users get up and running as fast as possible, MapInfo includes a rapid prototyping tool and ships with Apache Tomcat 4.0.1 servlet container. Developers can very quickly develop applications which are based on standards and are easily expanded or modified. MapXtreme Java follows the J2EE specification so developers can easily deploy applications with the tools provided or migrate to another J2EE compliant application server.
