Maps are made by many. Regio is special because: -
Our skilled designers can turn practical maps into works of art. We can print them on paper, birch bark, floors, can send them to a computer screen, mobile phone or a “you name it“ – Regio can get it there! - Regio understands the cultures of Europe and the Mediterranean. Working in close proximity to Tartu University, where old world cultures, people and nature have been studied and honored for centuries, Regio can augment maps with information that other cartographers don’t even think of.
So… when you think “maps,” think Regio.
Regio started out as a map publisher; right from the beginning we specialised in the production of complex maps and ones with very high information content. Today our product range is very wide. Regio’s map production is distinguished by the fact that our maps are mostly made on the basis of our database not as individual ad-hoc solutions.
In-house products Regio prides itself in a whole series of complex maps, which have won recognition even outside Estonia. First of all, the Regio Road Atlas, which is the only regularly appearing Estonian road atlas created by a private firm and published without any state support. The road atlas is complemented by the Regio Tallinn Atlas. Regio’s Estonian language globe was very warmly received; during its preparation we carried out a thorough inventory of world place-name spellings.
Digital maps Regio’s digital maps are useful if you wish to make the finishing touches to the maps yourself or if the maps are to be used very frequently. For this purpose we have prepared a number of standard products (e.g. Datamap maps and the CD-atlas); most of our digital maps are, however, extracted individually from our database. GPS-maps The micro SD card with the BALTIC map for GARMIN GPS devices: This is a brand-new product based on Regio’s map data, not an update of any older version. The map is on a micro SD card and easy to use after inserting it to the SD slot, without any installations required. The map supports turn-by-turn navigation and is suitable for units showing Garmin maps (NÜVI, ZÜMO, GPSMap, Colorado, Oregon etc..). The data is processed with legal GARMIN software. The map includes lots of new data; special feature is visible 3D terrain in newer devices. ESTONIA: The most detailed road network; Address finder locates all the streets and houses of Estonia, the database is most recent. The map includes farms that can be found by to their names under points of interest. Estonian points of interest (POI) available in Regio’s database have all been added: petrol stations, sights, hotels, restaurants, shops, accident and emergency centres etc.
Forests layer has been improved, marshes and swamps have been added.
Nature reserve borders and high voltage power lines have been added. LATVIA: Latvian map includes detailed road network, points of interest (POI) and address finder for 644 settlements. LITHUANIA: Lithuanian map includes detailed road network as well as points of interest (POI). Address finder is available for 9 towns so far: Vilnius, Kaunas, Šiauliai, Paneve˛ys, Klaipeda, Alytus, Palanga, Druskininkai, Nida. NOTE!: Do not try to move or copy data from SD/microSD card.
Do not add any data onto REGIO BALTIC SD/microSD card.
Damaged SD/microSD card will not be exchanged by provider.
Print originals If a map is only part of a larger publication then it is possible to order it from us as a one off print-ready original on film or as a file. If you are planning to publish a periodical it is possible to purchase a license which allows the same print originals to be used several times. Thanks to our extensive database we can quickly find the graphic style which best suits your publication.
Plotted maps The most up-to-date maps that can be ordered are plotted ones. There is no need to wait for them to be prepared for printing and then printed at a printing workshop. We can plot the latest version straight from our database. Our plotter is one of the widest (135 cm) in Estonia and has an excellent resolution (600 dpi). If required we can use bleach and water resistant inks which give the image a life-span of 5 years indoors and 2 years outdoors - this is even longer than an ordinary printed image.
Maps by others One map-maker can never make every map, therefore our sales catalogue contains an appreciable selection of maps by the world’s most well known map publishers: Lonely Planet, Michelin Maps, Stiefel as well as Jana Seta, Discus, National Geographic, Craenen, Rough Guide etc.
Map mountings You can choose between having your map plastic film coated, fixed onto a base, framed or mounted in some other way. In a smart office a wall map must be framed appropriately and mounted on a proper base. Plastic film coating, apart from its decorative appeal, may also have practical benefits - you can write on plastic and wipe it off, the map will not deteriorate even in the damp. An alternative approach is to enclose the map in an extra thick plastic coating and mount it on the floor.
