ColorTool

ColorTool is an exceptional plugin developed by NCI GIS Tools for enhancing cartographic designs. The latest version, 5.0, brings improved features designed to help users in creating stunning choropleth maps, leveraging the diversity of ColorBrewer color ramps. This addition to the world of System Utilities under the Fonts subcategory is an indispensable tool for GIS professionals.

One of the main highlights of ColorTool v5.0 is its seamless integration into the ESRI ArcGIS Desktop suite, particularly ArcMap™. The program operates efficiently from a single button on the toolbar, facilitating ease of access and a smooth user experience. By guiding users through a form to select appropriate classification schemes, ColorTool ensures that even complex mapping tasks are executed flawlessly.

The program’s installation file, aptly named HIGHRESCOLORTOOL.EXE, is notably compact at only 2.7 MB. Despite its small size, it packs a powerful punch to enhance the user’s mapping capabilities. Additionally, ColorTool supports a wide range of operating systems including Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and 11, making it highly versatile for different user environments.

For those who have been using previous versions, the options to upgrade from versions 2.0 or 5.0 are readily available. The freeware license of ColorTool makes it an incredibly attractive tool without any extra cost burden. Users can easily download it without financial constraints, making professional-quality mapping accessible to everyone. More
