National Geographic TOPO V4.2.4
Summary: National Geographic Topo is a great program with software version 4.2.4 being their best effort yet. I have been using this program for more than 7 years now and it continues to get better every year. I use it nearly daily for work and play.
Pros: Great easy to use topographic map program. You can update topo maps and street data over the internet. Great GPS compatibility. Cool 3-D rendering.
Cons: Proprietary data, you are stuck with what data they have. Maps and street data not frequently updated, however map updating is a USGS issue not National Geographic though. Street data could be updated more. USGS maps are available on the internet for free; however they do not come together in one package with a good software program. No aerial photographs.
Rating
Quality: (8) Topo version 4.2.4 is their best effort yet.
Features: (7) 3-D views, seamless topo maps, GPS compatibility.
Practicality: (7) Many uses; print hiking maps, GPS tracking, measuring distances, and more.
Value: (6) $100 for a State full of topo maps, still a good deal.
