Software to draw custom street maps? [closed]

Software to draw custom street maps? [closed] I'm looking for any (Windows) software that allows me to draw custom street maps. I'm not looking for something that displays existing maps from real places, but something that allows me to define my own map. Obviously this can be achieved through any graphics program however

"You don't need a fully GIS system for this. OCAD is a professional mapping software. In OCAD you can define your own symbol set, if you want. The newest versions are expensive, but you can download the full version 6 for free.

However, if you don't need an complex map, it's maybe easier to go with any vector-graphic software out there. Inkscape is one of the more populare ones."

"For geospatial editing, consider to use Quantum GIS (QGIS, http://www.qgisdotorg). It is Free Software. It has plugins for Open Street Maps etc.

For an overview, see the portal of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation at http://www.osgeodotorg/"
