Hi all. Just wondering whether someone can help me on this topic. I'm wondering what level of detail these maps go into and whether paper maps are more detailed.

Sneaky Butcher,

They are the paper maps but put onto disc.
So the raster map and thecorresponding paper map are the same.We have so little time to enjoy our land

I take it that you understand these maps are 1:250 000 scale and therefore have limitations as to the amount of detail that can be shown over such a wide area !

Some of the maps may have been updated but generally they are copies of the printed maps.

They are great for general navigation in more open country.
For more detail, look at some of the specific products available for certain areas - on this site - or use 1:100 000 paper maps for more detail.Subaru Forester

Paper maps don't lose power, but you can't connect them up to your GPS either.Cheers,

Thanks All,
I've found a copy of them on the web so i'll download them and check them out. Beats paying for them and then finding out they're no good.
