Topo Maps On Ppc


Recommended Posts

I recently went to an event and afterwards hunted some caches with a group from the event. One of the people in the group had Topo maps on his PPC ( an iPaq I believe) He was using Oziexplorer on it, I didnt get to ask him to much about it at the time, but it has got me thinking lately that it would be nice to have something like that out on the trail especially when in unfamiliar territory.

 

I have been looking at Delorme, Oziexplorer,N.G.Topo, and Fugawi but cant not really decide on anything.

 

So I was wondering if anyone here uses such a setup? i.e=what program(s) software? Recomendations. I would like to be able to upload/change waypoints.

 

I am using a MeriPlat. and a Dell X5 ('02) I dont see a need for "live" tracking at the moment, just want to be able to see any "hazards" and waypoints.

NG Topo allows you to transfer their 24K maps with drawn route etc, and show your position in real time. But it doesn't transfer and display waypoints yet, which is a drag. I wrote to them and they said they're working on it.
