Hema 4wd raster series or Oz topo

For the bush, OziExplorer and raster maps from Natmap or Hema will have more detail and use unless the revised Oztopo map is a major major improvement on the current version.

Go the ozi or Trackranger with the complete Hema Mapa/250K Raster dvd. The latest version of Oztopo is a real disappointment, at least until they get an update done and get all the missing tracks back into it.

I have both Ozi and Trackranger as well as a Garmin Vista. The computer based programs give a lot more particularly with moving map etc. The Garmin has portability on its side. You can also get free map versions for the Garmin shonkeymaps, tracks4australia and a topo system as well.

Cheers. Mick

I have Ozi explorer on the lap top OziCE for the pda, a Garmin Nuvi 760 with OzTopo and ShonkyMaps and the old version of DiscoverAus(which I use with a Megellan Meridian Gold). The most detailed of them all is Magellans DiscoverAus, its is only in black and white but you can copy from original to a cd. Forgot I have NatMap Raster as well but I find it not detailed enough for those say State Forest tracks. The problem with the Megellan is I find that hooked to the laptop it is a little shi''y keeps losing comport settting probably the l/p. So in the end the Garmin win mostly because of convenience.
