Re: National Geographic vs Delorme topo map software?



I reviewed the NG TOPO! state series and two DeLorme products (Topo USA
& 3-D TopoQuads) in my book, GPS Mapping - Make YourOwn Maps. There are
advantages and disadvantages to each but, IMHO, the DeLorme interface
is somewhat clunky. Probably opening myself up to tons of criticism
from DeLorme fans.
