Maptitude (caliper.com) is GIS software which uses proprietary GIS formats (*.cdf and *.dbd).

Maptitude *does* support native access to OSM data (map server tiles or *.osm files.) As a consequence, intermediate converters are not required to import the OSM data into compatible GIS formats (such as Shapefile or MapInfo TAB/MIF)

  • Maptitude can import and export data in formats supported by most GIS software [1]
  • Maptitude can work with ESRI Shapefiles. See the Shapefiles page for tools and data download sites

TODO:Provide more information/options for working with OpenStreetMap data

Using OSM Vector data in Maptitude

Maptitude supports many geospatial data formats for import, export, and natively[1]. You can import vector OSM point, line, and area data by layer and feature type.

Using OSM tiles as a background layer in Maptitude

You could do this via a OSM WMS server.

Maptitude comes with an optional OpenStreetMap Tiles backdrop layer, accessible by a menu built into the main application interface.
