I'm in Quebec, Canada. My only experience with all this is using a GPS on Anticosti island and some schools duty. Now for some safety reason, we need a map of our area ( we guide tourists on many outdoors activity and we need a big size map to explain ambulances and helicopters where to go if that's ever needed.

Many thanks you for your answer. I will take a look. If someone knows of shareware however, that would be nice.

Thanks for your answer. This again looks more for taking data and putting in GPS. I need the contrary. I need to be able to print out a map with the trails of the 1000 acre property for clients to take Hiking

I would like to add I believed mapsource could do these kind of things or even basecamp as it seems now but the maps aren't going from the GPS to basecamp so even this minimal editing is rendered worthless.

My boss's step brother works for a saw mill and he's chief of maps and things like that, already said he would print for us. I don't know the exact format but my issue is more into creating the map from the GPS points and lines i'll have made.

Sorry, what do you mean by plotter? My english isn't quite perfect. If it's reguarding the area I need to take points, chart roads and eventually print out it's roughly 1000 acres.

Hello, this is my first post here I have a question to you all users. I have, like many others, used a GPS for recreational purpose over the years. Now, I find myself in a situation where I need to translate this GPS data (trails, mostly) onto a real life map, something like 2'x2' maybe bigger. I have used mapsource once 5 years ago and never GIS softwares. I would ideally need to have this map displaying the satellite view of the area Or/and topo, altho I would prefer a mix of both if it's possible i'm open to suggestions and help. I've been searching on Google for most of the day with no results.


Thanks for any assistance provided,
