Default RE: Hunting Software

I've been using TopoGrafix for a few years... http://www.topografix.com/

Here's a map that it produced... http://www.racksnspurs.com/TopoL.htm

After viewing the above map, click the "UP" buttom on the top right side and see the aerial and the smaller topo map produced by this software. Sometimes the maps get a little fuzzy when you change their size to fit on a web page.

I put the GPS on the dash of my truck and drove the roads, then downloaded the tracks to the software. Click on topo view and it loads the topo map underneath it. Same for aerial view.

The border was hand drawn from a survey map. BTW all the maps are free as it pulls them from the Terra Server site. It helps to have a high speed connection, but once an area is viewed the map are stored locally. I also use the software for fishing on large bodies of water like the Pamilico sound in NC.

If you have any questions, just post them here. I check in 2-3 times a week.
