MB Windigo Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I dont even know why I'm asking this. But is there any city maps for china? Quote Link to comment
+Jamie Z Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I'm afraid we're not psychics. At least not most of us. Yes. I believe there are city maps for China. You mean for your GPS? Hmm.. that's different. What kind of GPS do you own? Oh! Not for your GPS, but for your laptop? That's different. You'll have to tell us a little bit about your question before any help can be given.

MB Windigo Posted February 20, 2005 Author Share Posted February 20, 2005 I have the world map already. But I would like a little more detail of some cities, Kunming in particular. Since I'll be here for awhile. Quote Link to comment
peter Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 But I would like a little more detail of some cities, Kunming in particular. See item #16 on this page and the link there: http://www.thaimtb.com/cgi-bin/viewkatoo.pl?id=21438 Lots of screen shots are shown of an eTrex Legend, so it looks like the maps should work with your 76cs. Unfortunately I have no idea what the text is saying. Quote Link to comment
+Jamie Z Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I used my Meridian Gold in China, and we went through Kunming, although I don't remember it well. The maps on my GPS were disappointing, showing only some of the largest cities. We had a Garmin Etrex with us, and I noticed that the maps on it had many, many more cities and roads. Alas, the cities were not detailed, but simply a dot. There were no surface streets shown. I suggest waypointing places where you often go, or marking significant landmarks as a bad alternative to having detailed city maps on your GPS. Jamie Quote Link to comment
+NightPilot Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I believe China has been rather reluctant to provide the world with detailed maps of the country and its cities. I would be rather surprised if Garmin has any maps at all for China, but I've been surprised before. Quote Link to comment
MB Windigo Posted February 22, 2005 Author Share Posted February 22, 2005 I've been in China for over a year already and have yet to find even a topo map of anything. I would be really surprised if anyone found any GPS software for China but I thought I would ask anyways. So far the best I have found is the Garmin World Map. Thanks for the help fellas.
