Mapping Software

[mserskine]

I am going to assist the territory servant in making new territory maps. He has mapping software called Microsoft streets and trips, but he doesn't like it. Does anyone know of anything better we could use?

I wasn't referring to the subject/topic ....

 

You had 5 of this exact post and 12 with another name/title - the rest have all been deleted.

Michael was talking about some duplicates of this post that you made. I took care of them. No problem

Sorry again.

So, again, does anyone have any other software programs they are using in making territory maps?

My congregation uses DeLorme Street Atlas, which includes corresponding telephone listings, so telephone territories won't overlap territory maps.

We have some city territory, but 80-85% is rural. Would this help with rural too?

I have Delorme for personal use ans it is good. Our overseer that does the maps uses something different that works well. I'll talk to him to see what he uses.

Yup, my territory is nearly 100% rural, and it does great.

 

The one adjustment we've made is printing the maps on 8.5"x11" card stock rather than the 4"x6" cards from the society, due to the road names being too small when printed on such a small card, but I expect the same would be true of almost every mapping software.

I used Google Maps. You can create your own maps with it...

You can also go to territoryassistant.com, a web site developed by a brother with and easy to follow instruction. This program gives you the ability to make your board map and territory maps in map form or satellite mode so you can see the actual homes in the territory. Enjoy!

So, Michael, what did you find to your liking? Have you began yet?

I took these suggestions and mentioned them to our territory servant. I'm waiting to see what he and the elder in charge wants to use.

After 3 and half months of labor (labor of love), our new territory has been launched just in time for the campaign using territoryhelper.com.

I've told the friends that they can use as little or as much technology as they want. We still have the 3x5 cards that can be checked out.

The brothers that have created this are very nice to work with.

We have provided training on how to utilize some of features for using it with a smartphone/tablet and how to print larger maps.

It's been a positive experience working with the friends to implement their suggestions and make their service to Jehovah even more productive.

"Alba" (mcmxiv.com) is also a good solution but the access to it is quite difficult (through the BoE and by being referred by another congregation BoE already using Alba).

 

We are using territory helper too.
