GeoPup&ShelpieGirl Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 You can get GPS coordinates from Streets & Maps, but you cant upload maps to your GPS. As you know, uploading maps give you greater detail than the base map in your GPS, but many times, the base map is adequate, and all you need is to locate something. That being said, I like MapSource and got an older version that works great, with free updates from Garmin. If you really want to save $$, just explore maps at the many on-line map services like Google Local, TerraServer, and USGS topo map sites? Street and Maps can run on a laptop with GPS unit attached, and you can get S&M with a little GPS unit for about $100. Could work in a vehicle, too bulky for the trail. Please tell us more about that you are trying to do? Quote Link to comment
