Topo AUS & NZ v4 (August 2012): gmapsupp.img size = 2,979,264 KB and contour lines each 10 m.

Topo AUS & NZ v5 Lite (August 2014): gmapsupp.img size = 1,430,176 KB and contour lines each 40 m.

 

Half the size of v4 and no road routing so makes for quicker map redraws.

Can't see all that much difference between v4 and v5 except for file size...

 

Has anyone got a take on this Lite version and will there be a Pro version later with routing?

Does it cost less than version 4 did?

Yes, about $100 AUD less...
