EOTopo

EOTopo is an enhanced topographic map of Australia. It incorporates street, road & track data with topographic detail & POI labelling for populated localities & campsites.

David, I currently use the "Australian 4WD" software on my laptop when travelling. I like this one because it has quite a few detailed maps included, showing tracks that would otherwise not show on the 250 scale maps. I do like the idea of having similar maps on the Galaxy S4. This would save having a laptop bouncing around on corrugated tracks. I am not sure if I can achieve the same with your maps. Cheers

George,

First can you please flip the switch to make these a discussion and not a review (reviews are meant to be reviews of the product and use the star ratings) when you post them.

Now - you can load these maps on OziExplorer for Android and this is what I use all the time. They will load and go directly - just download the latest OziExplorer for Android from the OziExplorer site - pay the USD$25 registration for the program, plug the SD card in and load the map. Simple and easy. I reckon the interface on OziExplorer for Android is easy to use we have been using it for more than 12 months. It is much easier than the PC version and works really well. I strongly recommend it.

Also you can have EOTrackMe Android running at the same time as OziExplorer.

Hi David. Thanks for your patience, that makes it all much clearer for me. I will purchase the Oziexplorer and EOTopo and give it a go.
Also my apology for posting in the wrong area. Still coming to grips with the new menu. Cheers

G'day George,

this looks like it might be an outstanding product. I will be ordering it soon to load up on the lap top and Di's Galaxy in readiness for our Kimberley trip next year. In the meantime we will keep watching your experience with it. We already have Ozi for Android on the Galaxy and it is a great product, even with the Hema maps and the Natmap 250k product - the EOTrack me works well on the Galaxy too.

Cheers

John
