TNTmips License Levels
Pro, Basic, and Free
Choose license level based on project size, data complexity, and advanced features you need.
TNTmips Pro — Global Capabilities
TNTmips Pro is the most comprehensive professional geospatial analysis package available. It is priced much lower than other software even when you purchase their entry level versions that subsequently require the purchase of many additional extensions and modules. All of TNTmips Pro's comprehensive geospatial analysis features are included at a single price.
Academic License — for Teaching
The reduced cost Special Academic License (SAL) for TNTmips Pro is available to university and college departments who want to provide students with an opportunity to learn and practice geospatial analysis appropriate for their academic and continuing studies.
TNTmips Basic — Small Projects
TNTmips Basic is a low-cost upgrade of TNTmips Free with increased capabilities to enable professional geospatial analysis projects of a larger size. Upgrade TNTmips Free to TNTmips Basic at any time using your credit card via PayPal.
Additional features are also activated in TNTmips Basic. You can automatically view any combination of your georeferenced geodata (images, shape, CAD, LIDAR, …) anywhere in the world in full 3D color using your 3D monitor or 3D TV or in anaglyph. Through your Internet connection you can also view any location in the world in 3D using imagery published at microimages.com and by WMS or ARC. Converting the content of your 2D view to a 3D view can use your local DEM or automatically use the global elevation data published at microimages.com.
TNTmips Free — Learning Tools
TNTmips Free is a version of TNTmips Pro designed for free student use. TNTmips Free is not a demo; it is a fully featured geospatial analysis software package. TNTmips Free is exactly the same program as TNTmips Pro except that the license to use it free-of-charge determines the size, number, and complexity of geodata layers you can use in your project and omits some advanced features.

1 Unlimited means that there is no limit on the number of elements in the layer that can be created or
used in TNTmips Pro, however, limits may be imposed by your hardware, other software, or operating
system.
2 Each TNTmips Pro comes with a license purchased by MicroImages from Microsoft to use the Bing
Maps image and road layers in every TNTview. This license is valid until the next version of TNTmips Pro is released in January.
3 TNTmips Pro can prepare and assemble raster, vector, CAD, shape, DEM, tilesets (raster, KML,
and SVG), and other geodata types for viewing and other uses in Google Maps, Bing Maps, Google
Earth, OpenLayers, and World Wind.
4 SML is MicroImages' powerful geospatial scripting language built into TNTmips.
TNTmips Free and Basic can use SML to structure queries, add tools to views, and add internal macro processing
methods. Only TNTmips Pro can be used to create and run "stand alone" SML scripts that can be
distributed and run as separate processes.
5 Job Processing — TNTmips Pro will simultaneously execute the same or different independent
analysis processes or tasks on each of your processors to greatly improve throughput.
