What Is MapSpeller for ArcGIS?

Edgetech America, Inc. is pleased to present the world's first GIS spell checker, MapSpeller for ArcGIS. MapSpeller is a geographically-smart spell checker.

The MapSpeller extension is for all ArcGIS Desktop users who want to avoid the embarrassment, delays and costs of typos on their maps. It checks for, and suggests corrections to, spelling errors in and around GIS maps using patent-pending processes. Simple to install and easy to use, the MapSpeller extension is an ingenious and effective tool that will quickly pay for itself by saving users the cost of expensive reprints.

GIS map layouts contain many different textual objects that could contain typographic errors. Typos can exist in annotation graphics, layer labels, annotation feature classes but also in legends, grouped graphics, scale bars, tables, graphs, etc.

MapSpeller version 9.3.1663 will spell check text in annotation graphics directly, and labels, annotation feature classes, grouped graphics indirectly (See Tips & Tricks). Direct support for additional types of objects containing text is planned for future releases.

The current version of MapSpeller comes with an American English dictionary and the ability to build a personal dictionary and locationary. Edgetech has plans for adding multi-lingual support and other types of locationaries in future versions.

The MapSpeller toolbar is delivered as a single-user ArcMap extension. It is priced per PC when running locally on a PC, or per terminal user login when running from a terminal server. It is compatible with both Single and Concurrent Use versions of ArcView, ArcEditor and ArcInfo. See the licensing agreement for exact terms and additional important information.
