About Integrating Maptitude with external programs 

GISDK also allows you to call GISDK functions and macros from another application using COM, .NET, Python, PostgreSQL and R.  Maptitude can provide map, data, and transportation analysis services when accessed from an external program. You write your application in a programming language calls GISDK functions, and when you need map services you call the Maptitude object to supply those services.

 

You can call GISDK functions directly, or you can call GISDK macros, compiled in a UI Database, that call GISDK functions. Calling GISDK functions directly is good for simple operations, while using GISDK macros is helpful when doing more complex or frequently needed operations.

 

Clients have access to the full range of Caliper Script functions through the main Maptitude object. This object includes the methods for calling GISDK functions and macros with the necessary arguments.
