Virginia based on Chicago Map Corporation's PM3

This data was generated in the USA by Steve Stevens, who kindly made his work available for all of you. The maps were all made using Chicago Map Corporation's PM3 CD-ROM product. The maps now here are updated (17 June 97), and have a more pleasing appearance than the first batch - to Robin's eyes at least :-) Robin has left the data exactly as Steve supplied it, and has bundled it all into one self-extracting file VIRGINIA.EXE. Steve has done all the required work, including calibrating the maps and recording the sounds for description of position - so you will get an interesting combination of Robin's voice and his ! We'll keep you posted on the latest news on PM3-GPSS.
More information on PM3 is on www.chicagomap.com

More detail for Jack Feldman and anyone in the Chicago area - particularly Downers Grove. 4 maps and 21 sounds for verbal description of position.

Finally two maps from PM3 : that of the Downers Grove area, and a bit of Street Plan on Jack's patch. PM3 Mapping should be accurate here, I reckon. Now Jack, make sure you get someone else to drive while you play with the Notebook :-)
