times in a minute)
 -scheduled interval ping location of numbers (locate this 
once every 2 hours)
   plotting-plot multiple points from text file 
upload
 -import data from other sources
 -combine data from different 
sources in the same map window -*from different layers?
 -get coordinate by 
setting a point in map
 -show historical locations
 -view info associated 
with a particular point
   buffers-create buffer
 -set radius, unit of 
measure (created buffer customizable by radius and smoothness, radius by value 
or formula, smoothness by no of segments in the circle buffer, minimum of 
3)
 -creation of buffer in a single object - ???
 -creation of buffer for 
all selected objects/multiple object
 -creation of buffer around one or more 
objects,tool computing aggregated values(for concentric ring

   thematic mapping-thematic 
mapping(shades,colors,fill patterns,symbol,bar and pie charts,grids)
 -all 
items having unique value are assigned with a color or symbol(individual values 
thematic map)
 -group all records into ranges and assign each range a 
color,symbol or line(ranged thematic map)
 -use symbols to represent each 
value(graduates symbols map)
 -use dots to represent data value associated to 
a boundary(dot density map with customizable scale of dots)
 -bar chart for 
every map object with numerical value.chart should be 
customizable(color,frame.width,etc),all types of bar charts should be 
available
 -pie chart (same as bar chart)
 -bivariate thematic 
map,combination of 2 thematic maps layered.should be available for 1. two ranged 
maps and 2. one ranged map and one individual value map
   legends-automatic creation of legends for 
thematic maps and other layers.legends must be editable and can be 
deleted
 -manual create edit and delete of legends
   graphs-create graphs
 -bar 
graph(clustered/percent/stacked)

graph(clustered/percent/stacked)
 -pie graph(normal pie/ring 
pie)
 -scatter graph
 -surface graph(normal surface/surface with 
sides/honeycombed)

 -support for multiple file types 
(xls,doc,html,xml,txt,csv,email)
   drawing and editing tools-draw and modify 
object on the map
 -input text (customizable font, color, type)
 -add custom 
symbol
 -positioning/moving and sizing map object

specific angle
 -insert OLE Object in map

map
   reporting-generate and customize 
reports
 changing map styles
