Will MapPoint include UK political boundaries, particularly wards? and, if so, how much will they cost?
Answer:
The UK maps in the European version of MapPoint 2002 include the
following boundaries: UK Constituent Countries, Postcode Area, Postcode
District, Postcode Sector and County. Wards are not available as
boundaries, and there is no way to add additional boundaries into
MapPoint's base maps. The only possible solution would be to acquire
ward boundaries in another GIS vector format, and bring this in via the
object model. The result of this would be overlaid polygons (drawing
objects) that can be used for point in poly queries, but since they
aren't part of the base map, MapPoint doesn't recognize them for
geocoding or as building blocks for custom territories.
