What is Azimuth 2?

Azimuth 2.5 continues to be the only program on the Macintosh that produces true, customizable maps of the world. Many so-called map programs are simply glorified clip art. Azimuth's "true" maps are dynamic in that they can be generated in numerous flat projections or in 3D perspective mode. You, the user, decide which are most appropriate for your needs.

As a world mapping program, Azimuth allows you to easily map all the countries of the world from any distance and any angle in any of ten different projections. As an illustration program, Azimuth comes with a full host of drawing, text and graphics tools to allow you to customize your maps with symbols, objects, layers, color fills, hatches and rotatable text. After seeing Azimuth, the reviewers at MacUser magazine remarked "You will want to have this program in your collection if you make maps." The improved Azimuth 2.5 release adds even more power, including the ability to easily scan in your own maps for use with Azimuth's array of cartographic features.

Azimuth is now a relied-upon graphics tool in the desktop publishing industry, used by major newspapers and publications around the world, including the Washington Post, USA Today, US News and World Report and Newsweek (just to name a few). Azimuth has also found an important home in the corporate world, as well as in the classrooms and labs of major colleges and universities. Where there is a need to create custom, accurate and beautiful maps, you'll find Azimuth.
