The company created a version for the United States called Automap Road Atlas which it sold through its American subsidiary Automap Inc. In the early 1990s it was ported to the Microsoft Windows operating system. Originally created in the late 1980s by NextBase Ltd, a UK company, under the name "Autoroute", it was sold for DOS based PCs and later for the Apple Macintosh, Atari ST and Psion PDA. This version came out in February rather than the traditional August/September release date due to unknown factors.
MICROSOFT STREETS AND TRIPS ALTERNATIVES UPDATE
Version 2011 is mainly a database update adding 88,000 miles of new mapping to the program and the removal of support for the ending MSN Direct service and coupon data, while allowing direct map correction feedback to maps provider Navteq and the addition of cardinal direction guidance and alternate road names to direction data. Version 2010 adds hide/show pushpinsets, hide/show information balloons, import/export GPX files, export to GPS navigation device, export to mobile phone, and 348 new pushpin symbols were added, the majority restored former pins as mentioned above. The former pushpins were restored in the 2010 version with updated visual styling. The Streets and Trips user community thus created a default map template wihich has the 2008 pin set in order to re-add them to the program. The new version 2009 replaced these symbols with a new set of 46 pushpins. Version 2008 (and older) included 336 pushpin symbols. The map of Mexico now includes street level data of even small towns, but the address-find feature still has not been enabled for there. Streets & Trips 2009 adds pronunciation of street names, as part of the voice directions prompts. Version 2006 of both Streets & Trips as well as AutoRoute is the last version for Windows 98/ Me and version 2007 is the last version for Windows 2000.
