Workgroup Installations for
System Administrators
MapInfo Professional is a desktop application that places user data on a map to
simplify business analysis for data with a spatial component. This section will
assist you in setting up a MapInfo Professional network share workgroup that
allows users to share application data resources (such as coordinate system
information and templates). Sharing these resources can unify the look of user
maps and provide consistency in their data.
There are two steps to this Workgroup installation process:
• System administrators create a shared location for the application data files
and create a method for users to install MapInfo Professional on their own
computers. Before you begin, see

• Users install the application on their computers, pointing to the shared location
for their Application Data Files. To complete a workgroup installation, go to
