EVE Java Map: An Interactive EVE Map program written in Java. The four features that set it apart from the in-game map are:
» Visual categorization of systems by asteroid belt count.
» Jump Drive route planning (best feature IMO, and although available elsewhere in other forms. It is not available in
any other map that I know of)
Visual categorization of null sec systems by
» "True Security" (affects the size of rats)
» Sovereignty (Helps avoid trespassing. Or assist it. Either way, its
handy =P).
The first feature is the only one useful outside of null sec. So if you are in high sec, stick with with the Ombey and in-game map for a while. Some features lacking from the Java map available with the in-game map.
» Visual pilot population indications.
» Visual categorization of systems by number of ship losses. (handy if you are traveling into low sec)
» Drop down menus listing info regarding orbital bodies in the system: planets, moons, stations, and their corps, and their agents.
EVE Sovereignty Map: This is useful if you are thinking of applying for a null sec corp, and want to "put a face to the name". Once you are familiar with all four of these maps, you will find that you won't be using any one of them exclusively (sometimes consulting them in
tandem).
Lets say you need quick refresher glances, every 30 seconds while traveling in low sec. Nothing beats a good old-fashion paper map.
Want to know good place to mine? Check the Java map for high sec systems with lots of belts, and zero stations. Then compare this against population
levels with the in-game map.
No single map does it all. Use the right tool for the right job.
