Guest jstead Posted September 23, 2001 Share Posted September 23, 2001 Fine though still learning. It seems to do everything I want - though as I have said in another topic I would like to know if anyone has compared Mapsource Roads & Recreation UK with Metroguide UK? ------------------ John Stead Quote Link to comment
Guest Monz Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 Yes I have used both... the main difference is the POI (points of interest) database... On the Metroguide you get all the info e.g. petrol stations, fast food outlets, hotels etc, etc... oh yes and house numbers and street names. Road and Recreation has limited POI and no house numbers and so is a lot smaller file size for the same area of land and so you can nearly fit all of the uk into the vista whereas you can usually only get three of the Metroguide areas in. One good thing is you can mix and match which I tend to do most of the time ------------------ ICQ# 40203935 Quote Link to comment
