Core offering

ESTI MAP develops, distributes, and supports desktop GIS software for the Russian market, centered on GIS Axioma — a domestic Russian Geographic Information System registered in the Unified Register of Russian Programs (No. 2174) and certified for mining-survey work — sold as the official import-substitution replacement for MapInfo Pro following US sanctions. The portfolio also includes the proprietary Cadastral Office (Кадастровый Офис) suite for land/property management with Rosreestr XML integration, plus distribution of MapInfo Pro and related add-ons, along with technical consulting on GIS implementation for government and enterprise clients.

Product overview

ESTI MAP offers a comprehensive GIS software portfolio centered on two core products: GIS Aksioma (ГИС Аксиома), a domestic Russian GIS and official import-substitution replacement for MapInfo Pro, and MapInfo Pro, the international desktop GIS software. The portfolio includes specialized add-on modules: Cadastral Office (Кадастровый Офис) for land/property management with Geomaster geodesy tools and Cadastral Office Lite for simplified Rosreestr documentation; Dynamic Tables for web layer integration; MapInfo Pro Advanced for raster surface analysis; and Gold Tools for enhanced editing. The company also supports legacy products and provides extensive integration with Russian database systems (Postgres Pro) and government services (Rosreestr).

Products and services

• GIS Axioma (ГИС Аксиома) Russian domestic desktop GIS software and official import-substitution replacement for MapInfo Pro, registered in the Unified Register of Russian Programs (No. 2174). Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS plus Russian operating systems (ALT Linux, AlterOS, Astra Linux, РЕД ОС, РОСА), Postgres Pro database, and Russian state coordinate systems (СК-42, СК-95, ПЗ-90.11, ГСК-2011). Provides full MapInfo Pro format compatibility (TAB, MWS, PRJ, QRY), ribbon and classic interfaces, and offline operation. Certified for mining-survey software requirements.
• MapInfo Pro Desktop GIS software for collecting, storing, displaying, editing, and analyzing spatial data, distributed by ESTI MAP in Russia. Available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions with ribbon interface, supporting common spatial data formats and coordinate systems including Russian GSK-2011. Supports Python scripting (from 2019.1) for extensions and automation. Note: Precisely Inc. terminated MapInfo Pro services for Russian users in 2022, so ESTI MAP can no longer provide activation or technical support for this product.
• Cadastral Office (Кадастровый Офис) Specialized software for managing the land and property complex, working alongside MapInfo Professional and Microsoft Office. Includes cadastral documentation modules, Geomaster geodesy module for processing theodolite traverses and tachymetric surveys, dynamic tables for displaying public internet layers (Google Maps, Yandex Maps, OpenStreetMap, Rosreestr), and Rosreestr XML conversion for state registration submissions. Targeted at cadastral engineers, land surveyors, and property management specialists.
• Cadastral Office Lite (КадОфис Лайт) Lightweight version of the Cadastral Office (Automated Cadastral Office) for standard Rosreestr document preparation, including cadastral plans, location schemes, land declaration forms, forest declarations, and forest development projects, with built-in schema validation and material-monetary evaluation.

• Precisely IncminorOthersPrecisely Inc (USA) was the licensor of MapInfo Pro for Russia. They have ceased providing services to Russian users including technical support, software activation, and updates. This termination prompted ESTI MAP to pivot to domestic GIS Axioma solution.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Hexagon Geospatial (ERDAS, GeoMedia): Global geospatial vendor with ERDAS IMAGINE and GeoMedia serving remote sensing, photogrammetry, and enterprise GIS use cases. Comparable on enterprise geospatial workflows to ESTI MAP's broader product portfolio.
• ESRI (ArcGIS): Global GIS leader whose ArcGIS platform historically competed with MapInfo Pro in Russia and remains the benchmark enterprise GIS suite. Comparable to ESTI MAP's product category but at much larger scale and broader functionality.
• Autodesk (AutoCAD Map 3D): Global CAD/GIS vendor whose AutoCAD Map 3D overlaps with MapInfo Pro/GIS Axioma in infrastructure and engineering GIS workflows. Comparable on spatial data editing and integration with CAD environments but constrained in Russia by sanctions.

Direct peers

• Precisely (MapInfo Pro): Former licensor of MapInfo Pro to ESTI MAP; ceased supporting Russian users in 2022, prompting ESTI MAP's pivot to GIS Axioma. ESTI MAP's product is explicitly positioned as a MapInfo Pro replacement, making Precisely the closest functional peer.
• NextGIS: Russian domestic GIS company providing NextGIS QGIS-based and proprietary geospatial solutions for government and enterprise. Direct competitor in the Russian import-substitution GIS market with similar domestic-software positioning.
• KB Panorama (Panorama GIS): Leading Russian GIS developer (Картографические Бизнес Решения) producing GIS Panorama and Panorama-Editor for desktop, server, and mobile geospatial use. One of the most established domestic GIS alternatives to MapInfo Pro in Russia.

Others

• Global Mapper: Desktop GIS application that ESTI MAP actively resells alongside its own GIS Axioma. Functionally comparable to MapInfo Pro/GIS Axioma and addresses the same Russian surveying and mapping workflows.

Regional players

• Credo-Dialogue (CREDO GEO): Russian developer of CREDO GEO and related geodetic/surveying software suites widely used in Russian land management and infrastructure projects. Comparable as a domestic Russian surveying-GIS competitor serving overlapping customers.
• Geocad (Geonics): Russian vendor of geodetic and cadastral software solutions for land surveying and registration workflows. Directly comparable to ESTI MAP's Cadastral Office and Geomaster products in the Russian cadastral ecosystem.

Emerging players

• QGIS Project: Free, open-source desktop GIS with an extensive plugin ecosystem and growing adoption in Russia. Competes with ESTI MAP's GIS Axioma on price and feature breadth, particularly for budget-constrained Russian users.
