ESRI is releasing MapObjects LT, a collection of mapping components based upon their successful professional component library, MapObjects, for Windows.

MapObjects LT consists of an ActiveX control and a collection of programmable ActiveX automation objects that allow developers to add intelligent mapping capabilities to their applications.

Unique to the GIS developer market, MapObjects LT includes ESRI Data and Maps Volume 1. Ready-to-use data include roads, census boundaries, zip codes, states, counties, countries, and much more. And, MapObjects LT plugs directly into many standard programming environments such as Visual Basic, Delphi, Visual C++ and others.
