Based on Dynamap/Transportation Data From Tele Atlas
The data a map program uses is the most important part of the application. Precision Mapping Streets and Traveler v8.1 uses Premium Data from Tele Atlas, with coverage for the entire United States and Canada. (Early versions of Precision Mapping used Tiger Data (from the US Census) which lacked the quality and coverage of the premium data supplied from Tele Atlas.. Streets and Traveler now also includes one-way street indicators and exit ramp identification.

Starting with Version 8.x, in addition to the high quality map data, the new version comes with an integrated Points of Interest (POI) data set, with restaurants, service stations, hotels, medical facilities, banks, and millions of other useful locations. You can selectively display these POIs on the map, search for them, use them as destination points in routing calculations, and more...
