(I am posting this for a friend who is currently doing research for
a book.  Please send any replies to me via e-mail, and I will pass 
them on.)

     Do you know of any programs, designed specifically for 
     cartographic use, that make extensive use of graphics?

     What advantages/disadvantages do you see to using CAD 
     for cartography?

     Is there a national or international database in use for
     cartography? If so, where, and on which machines?
