yeah, topo 2008

gpsmapedit and global mapper can take a full mapset and pair it down by deleting certain MP_TYPE's.  So you can rip out all polygons & polylines

I downloaded that NW map though, it has some good and bad aspects.  all the POI's are generic POI type instead of specific icons, other than that the map detail is even higher than the 40ft WA topo map

wow guess so.  I figured the wa topo was still in development so I was trying to add on to it.  I can only fit 8 map tiles of that  NW one before I'm out of space!

can't upload it. not free data.  all I can do is give a screenshot.



hopefully there is a WA 2.0 topo 24k eventually that has the POI data, or NW trails with free POI data

ok.  since apparently you are limited to 1 map overlay, I combined NW trails  (low res line style) with my POI map and recompiled.. it worked!  now I have POI's showing trailheads & summits as well as the nw trails on the 24K topo wa map!

I made an overlay map but it doesn't seem to work right.  I try to overlay my map and NW trails and NW trails doesn't show up.. can you only overlay 1 map?  I set it to transparent when I compiled it in cgpsmapper

Hi, I've been using the wa topo 24k built from this thread.  I was wondering if there are any plans to make a version that includes the POI data found in like Topo 2008 or Topo national parks 24K.  I like the 24K detail but it's missing the mountain peaks, trailheads, picnic areas, etc.  Could somebody explain how to recompile the maps with the POI data if I already have a csv to add to each tile? what settings do I use with cgpsmapper and global mapper?/gpsmapedit

I've been using this map in conjunction with northwest trails and really love it.

thanks
