Unfortunately, for “Microsoft Streets & Trips”, Microsoft has discontinued this product. In other countries, it is known as “Microsoft AutoRoute” which is a mapping program developed and distributed by Microsoft.
The latest version of Microsoft Streets & Trips is a subset of “Microsoft MapPoint” which is another discontinued program and service from Microsoft aimed at average consumer to do different map related tasks in the North American region as well as Canada, Mexico, and the United States like route planning. Microsoft Streets & Trips was originally called “Autoroute” released in 1988 by NextBase Ltd, a UK company.
Then in 1994 the product was sold to Microsoft. Microsoft combined the Encarta World Atlas Mapping Technology with the new routing technology obtained from Autoroute to create the products “Automap Road Atlas/Automap Trip Planner” and “Automap Streets/Streets Plus”. These products were later branded for several releases as “Expedia Trip Planner” and “Expedia Streets”.
They were later merged into one product called “Microsoft Streets & Trips 2000” after Microsoft spun off Expedia.
