    Hi

    From the Regions dropdown on the SPATIAL tab, you can access the Drive Regions tool.
    When activating the tool, you will see the Drivetime Regions window appear on the right side of the MapInfo window.

    The tool is using the Precisely API to calculate the drivetime regions which means you eed to have created an account and to be logged into your account when using the tool. You get 2000 credits for the API services each months.

    Once you have configured the drivetime regions, hit the Process button and MapInfo Pro will call the Zones API and render the calculated drivetime regions on your map.

    Another option is MapInfo RouteFinder which is a desktop application that runs on top of MapInfo Pro using a local road network file. MapInfo RouteFinder comes with a bunch of other features besides calculating drivetime zones.

    Hi Murray,

    I'm sorry. I lost track of our discussion and never got back to you.
    Have you been able to find the URL?

    Are you using one of the newer versions of MapInfo Pro, say v17.0.5 or v2019.3?
