ABSTRACT:
A vector database is used to create a vector map which is aligned with a raster map produced from an existing hand-drawn map. The aligned maps provide an X,Y coordinate basis for the locating of specific addresses within the territory represented by the raster map. The technique is particularly applicable to use by a utility company wherein the addresses identified are customer residences, each residence being coded with specific X,Y coordinates relative to the vector database. Relevant additional customer information is indexed through a graphical representation of the address which when displayed appears on the raster map at the appropriate X,Y coordinates relative to the vector map. Additional specific details of the method and system are presented.
