not sure if they will like to host such a big amount of data.

If I absolutely need Mapsource then Mapset toolkit is sufficient and not much more complicated than starting an installer. I think mkgmap has also an option to create a a control file for a Mapsource installer with some 3rd party package tool. But once you mess up Mapsource Mapset Toolkit is a must have to clean broken registry. > Im manually making 10m contours for all of Canada (it will be a 2 gig > install when done) maybe someone wants to make on for all of USA? have used this combination for a compromise of speed/size/precision. as said srtm data isn't that good and 10m seemed overkill. with NED data it's a different story 25m minor 100m medium 200m major what did you use for medium and major contours? > > Sam > > On 2/17/10, Apollinaris Schoell <ascho...@gmail.com> wrote: >> have built contour line maps lately based on srtm data.
