Sd Cards & Overlays

[+budbon]

Question 1- How do I load maps and such onto the SD card of my 62s?

 

Question 2- I am looking on the GPSMapsource at various maps. What is a Co (Colorado) topo 40/20 overlay? Do I load it along wirh other maps. I am assuming by overlay it means another map would show thru. Right?

 

There is also a CO Transparent topo. Is the transparent and overlay the same thing?

 

Should these be loaded on the gps or sd card?

A2: the 20/40 overlay is a transparent map that works in conjunction with another map such as City Navigator.

A2B: They could go to the datacard or the internal memory on that unit.

Okay, thanks coggins.

My CO Transparent topo has hydrology-the 20/40 overlay does not have hydrology.

 

For CO, I also have trails (MY trails), POIs (MY POIs) and landownership (western land ownership. All maps are transparent overlay maps that work on top of City Navigator.
