 Anyone have any experience with this software. It boats "seamless" USGS 7.5' coverage of the entire state from scanned topo quads. It also says it can do uploads and downlaods from GPS units. You can also get special "adventure paper" which is plasic map paper for inkjet printers so yo can print your own custom topos.

Does anyone have this software and how does it work.

When using a GPS, how accurate are the fixes based on real world location?

Do the maps show any compression smudging from when the images were scanned like some web based products? How well do the edges line up from multiple sheets?

All in all, how useful is it. It seems like a good idea, but then agin so was the car/boat/airplane you could keep in your garage and drive to work...
