I'm downloading some maps from ftp://aprs.tamu.edu and have
a question. Usually I use the online Tiger maps, and they work
great for scrolling as I drive along. Will downloaded maps do the same thing?
Well, I got with Steve Friis, WM5Z tonight, and he gave me
three DVDs with all those maps on them. They load kinda slow, don't
they? It appears they are loading counties, shapefiles, and some
kind of "poly" file for every county that appears in your
screen. That's a lot of data, some of those maps are really big. I
may have to figure something else out for these maps.
Thanks, Steve!
