Maptitude - http://research.umbc.edu/~roswell/maptitude.html Armando: I haven't used Maptitude with such a large polygon data base but, if it helps any, I have worked with it using a point layer of 500,000+ points with absolutely no problem. Of course, point files are much easier with no topology considerations. My largest polygon layer project involved cleaning up the traffic zone geography for a metropolitan area which involved about 600 polygons. I did this on a 200 megahz PC with 64 mg Ram. With any such project where topological edits are being done, a computer with large memory resources is a big plus.
