Software : Delorme Mapping Street Atlas USA 2005
I use this software to map out a garage sale route. It is simple and basic and allows me to flag each address on the route. Some of the features I could use in the future for a trip or something, but right now it's garage sales.

Software : Street Atlas USA Handheld Edition
This is the worst mapping software I have ever used (and I have used most of those available). There is a position error of 200-500 feet everywhere but on major thoroughfares and DeLorme Tech support (???) can only say it's a problem with the map translations (???). I notice there is no 2007 version! I have found the same position errors in their laptop version. Microsoft Streets & Trips is dead-on in position everywhere... DeLorme should be totally embarassed since their only products are in this field! And they charge a lot more than Microsoft does... pathetic!

Software : National Geographic TOPO Map (Alaska - Windows)
As a proud owner of a Garmin Legend, I searched for the perfect complementary mapping software. I wanted/needed a product to help plan personal backpacking trips as well as assist me with work and school research projects which have me wandering about the Alaskan backcountry. I spent weeks reviewing many products and eventually narrowed them all down to two: National Geographic's TOPO! Alaska (NGTA!) and Garmin's MapSource Topo USA. Finally, thanks in large part to Amazon.com's customers' review of MapSource TOPO USA, I decided to buy NGTA! and have been thrilled with the product ever since. Some of my highlights are listed below:

Installation is a breeze and learning to use the basic functions is fairly intuitive. Plotting waypoints and routes is straightforward. The ability ... Read More

Software : Microsoft Streets & Trips 2004
We've used this on cross-country trips. If you're in a remote location, without internet or cell service you can still plan your next leg of driving or get answers to questions. Just run the program on a lap-top computer off your vehicle's power. In several instances we were able to help fellow travellers too. It's like having an enormous pile of maps, but it fits in a tiny folder. Superb!

Software : National Geographic Trip Planner Deluxe Special Edition
I bought this product because I am a subscriber to National Geographic and have always been impressed with their magazine and maps. I was a little dissapointed with this product, in that it does not always find the towns and streets I am looking for, and the searching methods are a bit unuserfriendly. I also do not like the fact that it is CD-based, with no option to install everything on the hard drive. I don't use it much because I don't like searching for the CD everytime I want to map something. It's easier to look up a map on the internet.

I chucked it and went back to 8.0. 2006 was the most confusing, junked up interface I'd ever seen.

Software : Topo USA 4.0
I have used Topo USA 4 for two years now and have found it to be a very good product for my needs. At first I found it frustrating to use but as I used my head and figured out how it works I really like it. Contrary to what some say, DeLorme always promptly responding to my inquiries on line.

I think you have to be realistic about learning to use a product that is this complicated. It is amazing that you get maps covering the etire U.S. and the ability to download to a GPS for under a $100. Just using the maps for information would be worth that much.

I have used TOPO USA to plan and map hikes in Co(on at least six fourteeners and dozens of other hikes ),UT,CA,TX,OR,NV,AZ,MN,ME,VT,MT,FL, and have never found any significant errors. As a matter of fact I have been amazed ... Read More

Software : National Geographic TOPO Map (Northeastern USA - Windows)
GPS Compatibility...

As advertised, TOPO! works well with GPS units. I use it with a Garmin Vista Cx GPS frequently. Other people's negative reviews concerning GPS compatibility probably stem from their assumption that they should be able to download the maps themselves to a GPS device. No, you can't do that with just TOPO.

As advertised, you CAN download waypoints or routes before a trip, which becomes extremely helpful when you feel lost. And you CAN upload waypoints and tracks after a trip, which is very interesting to map where you've been.

General Comments on the Software...

This is an excellent product which I always use before going exploring or mountain climbing. I discover new features in the software all the time. I don't think the program has ever crashed ... Read More
