Reporting Services 中的 Dundas Map 具有以下一些主要特征與功能：
Dundas Map Wizard
不需要接觸代碼，就可以方便的創(chuàng)建以及編輯圖片。使用以及修改預(yù)創(chuàng)建的地圖，以加速設(shè)計過程。可以隨時發(fā)起向?qū)?，以及在進(jìn)行實現(xiàn)之前從視覺上監(jiān)測更改。通過該 Map Wizard, 還可以進(jìn)行自動著色以及其它智能審美。

Map Projections
Map 控件能夠支持十個幾何以及地圖工程，以滿足設(shè)計、間隔以及審美需要。所有工程支持自動簡明的視圖中心規(guī)范。可以隨時更改工程，即使運行時。

Importing Shapes
完全支持工業(yè)上主要的 ESRI 圖像文件。通過設(shè)計時向?qū)Э梢苑奖愕膶?dǎo)入這些 (.shp) 文件。還可以為自動命名選擇相應(yīng)的數(shù)據(jù)字段，以及圖像元素的數(shù)據(jù)關(guān)聯(lián)。

Grouping 以及 Layering
Maps 可以具有無限多個邏輯層次。Map 元素可以屬于其中之一個層次、所有層次或者一個層次也不屬于，使得應(yīng)用程序更加靈活?？梢苑奖愕娘@示或者隱藏層次?？梢愿鶕?jù)縮放級別設(shè)置層次的可見性。還可以根據(jù)元素的屬性由集合控件對元素進(jìn)行分組。

Legends 以及 Scales
為了容易理解地圖，通過屬性瀏覽器添加了圖例以及縮放比例。復(fù)雜圖例可以通過編程添加，以給出更多的地圖信息。

Data Binding
關(guān)聯(lián)地圖元素具有多個數(shù)據(jù)庫列，以實現(xiàn)智能命名以及分類。另外，還可以從外部數(shù)據(jù)中加載元素行為以及外觀特征，從而進(jìn)一步減少開發(fā)時間。

Libraries
Dundas Map 包含了非常廣泛的基礎(chǔ)圖片庫。可以把它們用作你的地圖應(yīng)用程序的基礎(chǔ)。庫中包含了多種風(fēng)格以及地圖區(qū)域，以顯示地圖控件的潛力。

Map Simplification
圖片簡化可以確保你的圖片中所希望存在的數(shù)量。簡化功能可以加速渲染，并且與縮放可見屬性共同使用時，可以根據(jù)輸入給用戶提供更多的細(xì)節(jié)。

Shapes, Paths 以及 Images
可以方便的給高亮區(qū)域以及感興趣路線上添加圖像以及路徑。它們所帶來的清晰程度，以及包含的信息可以加速圖片控件中的數(shù)據(jù)深度。還可以把圖片添加到地圖中，以增強地圖的外觀，或者達(dá)到更好的目的。

Some of the major features and benefits Dundas Map for Reporting Services include:
Dundas Map Wizard
Effortlessly create and style maps without ever touching the code. Use and modify pre-built maps to further accelerate the design process. Launch the wizard at any time and visually inspect changes before implementation. Automatic colorization and other intelligent aesthetics can be applied through this Map Wizard.

Map Projections
Map controls support ten geometric and cartographic projections to meet design, space and aesthetic needs. All projections support automatic and explicit view center specification. Projections can be changed at any time, including runtime.

Importing Shapes
Full support for industry leading ESRI shape files. Easily import these (.shp) files through the design-time wizard. Select accompanying data fields for automatic naming and data association of map elements.

Grouping and Layering
Maps can have an unlimited number of logical layers. Map elements can belong to one, all or none of these layers, giving more flexibility to the application. Layers can easily be shown or hidden. Visibility of layers can be made contingent on zoom level. Elements can also be grouped for collective control of their properties.

Legends and Scales
To facilitate comprehension of maps, legends and scales are easily added to maps through the properties browser. Complex legends can be programmatically added giving further informational depth to maps.

Data Binding
Associate map elements with multiple database columns for intelligent naming and classification. Additionally element behavior and appearance characteristics can also be loaded from external data in this way, further reducing development time.

Libraries
Dundas Map contains a comprehensive library of base maps. These can be used as a foundation for your map based applications. Within the libraries a wide variety of styles and map regions exist to showcase potential of the map control.

Map Simplification
Map simplification can be used to ensure that the desired amount of accuracy exists in your map. Simplification can accelerate rendering and be used in conjunction with zoom visibility properties to progressively give more detail to users based on their inputs.

Shapes, Paths and Images
Adding shapes and paths to highlight areas and routes of interest is easily achieved. The clarity they bring and the information they can contain allows for increased data depth in map controls. Images can also be easily added to maps to enhance their looks or to achieve branding goals.
