Mr. Rasmussen,
Thanks for the offer! I definitely need help. :)
I looked, and failed to find, the layer without unit#. That's what I thought
would be preferred. Thanks
for spotting it. I don't see why we would search for a specific unit on a map.
When I navigate, I would
just want directions to "1234 NW 33rd Ct", not "1234 NW 33rd Ct Apt 6". If you
know
of a good reason for the unit #s, let me know. It doesn't matter to me, since
I don't need navigation in
Miami. :D
If you think 600k points is big, imagine the building footprints. :) It's
available, if required. Heck, they
even make a 3d building layer available. But I don't think we'll enjoy the
size.
I knew the license is not a problem. However, I saved that email just in case
it comes up.
I'm going to read the info Mr. Juhász provided. Unfortunately, I'm way behind
here.
Also, I replied to all b/c I think that's what I'm supposed to do. However, I
don't want to 'bug' people on
the list. Hopefully, someone will let me know if this needs to go off-list.
