Installation Overview
MapMarker is available as Desktop and Developer (Server) editions. The features available during
installation are as follows:
MapMarker Desktop Edition The Desktop edition includes the Desktop Application, which
includes the graphical user interface for geocoding addresses and the MapMarker Address
Dictionary. You can purchase data for all 50 states (plus D.C. and Puerto Rico), regional state
bundles, or individual state data.
The Desktop Application runs on Microsoft Windows only.
MapMarker Developer Edition The Developer (Server) edition enables multiple simultaneous
geocoding requests to be served from a single MapMarker engine. It also includes the tools
necessary for developing MapMarker solutions using the Java API or XML API. These tools include
the MapMarker SDK, native code libraries, and examples. A preconfigured Apache Tomcat servlet is
provided to run MapMarker as a geocoding server.
The Developer edition also includes one license for the MapMarker Desktop Application.
MapMarker is delivered on one DVD, which includes both the software and the data. An installer is
provided to install and configure MapMarker in one easy procedure.

Application. To do so, the system administrator must do a shared installation of MapMarker. This means
that during installation the administrator must select the Desktop Application and Data features (see
) and also select "This installation will be shared by others on a network" (see
). After
installation, the data folder (for example, <SERVER-MACHINE>\MapMarker_USA_v25\
MapMarker_USA_v25_Data) must be shared on the network.
