Summary of Enhancements in EDIN-GIS 1.5

The enhancements in EDIN-GIS 1.5 cover a number of client requests and new innovations. They are designed to maximize your access, mapping, analysis and export capabilities for all your IHS international data and editorial subscriptions.

These new features include a new interface, and are scheduled to be online Monday, August 2, 2004. See the topics below for more information and links to sample screens.

Access to fiscal, political and economic data directly from EDIN-GIS

See PEPS data on a map for the first time. View ratings, rankings, editorial and other data from our PEPS, our political, economic & fiscal risk module, directly from EDIN-GIS.

Ratings and rankings indexes are color-coded to enable quick and clear analysis of the information.

The four PEPS main menu choices are now directly visible in EDIN-GIS.

Easily jump directly from your map to PEPS content. All hyperlinks are preserved allowing you to navigate through editorial in a logical fashion.

Sample screens of PEPS integration - screen 1, screen 2, screen 3.

Expanded capabilities to save and share projects

Save and, if you choose, share your projects.

When you save a project, layers, labels,active projection and preferences are all saved. You can activate and view a saved project with only three button clicks.

See sample screen for saving a project.

Preferences and filtering

See only the data you want to see, without the clutter of irrelevant information. Some common attributes are available for project-level data screening. For example, focus on one country, then filter to the data relating to a particular company within that country.

See sample screen of data filtering.

Mapping, map projections and printing maps

Work in the most relevant projection. Using EPSG standards, our projection tool will recommend the right choices and then apply them to your map.

You can now control all map labels from one window, choosing the attributes to label and the way the labels look.

Set the map scale directly.

Printing has been enhanced with new PDF support, which handles a variety of formats from A4 (letter) to larger plotter-sized prints.

Image handling is also improved making it easy to take a map straight into Microsoft Powerpoint, Word, or a storage device as a graphics file.
