DeLorme Publishing Co.
 PROFILE
Feeling adrift? DeLorme Publishing can steer you in the right direction. A leader in map publishing, the company makes mapping software, paper maps and books, and Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. The company's products include its Street Atlas USA CD-ROM, the hardcopy "Atlas & Gazetteer" series of state maps, and the Earthmate Road Warrior GPS navigation system for handheld computers. DeLorme's Yarmouth, Maine, headquarters houses Eartha, the world's largest globe (41 feet in diameter). Chairman and owner David DeLorme launched the company in 1976 when he became unsatisfied with existing maps of Maine's northern woods and sat down at his kitchen table to create his own map.
