Customer Review: World Map review
Summary: 4 Stars
I used the Garmin Mapsource Worldmap in Cameroon, Africa. It was a blessing to have and compare with printed maps available. We always knew where we were, which made us feel good. The maps are off a little bit from where the GPS thought we were (less than 1/2 a mile at most) and some roads were different, but given the conditions in Cameroon everyone on the trip was extremely happy we had the Garmin 60Csx and the worldmap loaded and operating at all times.Customer Review: Not much better than Basemap
Summary: 2 Stars
This adds very little detail over the Trip and Waypoint manager basemap. Added are some city names, topo lines, railroad tracks, small waterways, and obscure airports. I have not seen additional roadways and would not have purchased if I knew there would be no more road detail. Often in Latin America, the roads are incorrectly placed, making marked road tracking difficult. Standard Garmin Quality, which I have come to appreciate.Customer Review: Too bad it's the only option for South America
Summary: 3 Stars
It seems that if you need maps for Peru and Ecuador, this is your only choice, The coverage is only so-so and there is little city detail. These maps are locked to the PC and MAC users beware. If you have a PC and a MAC, you can convert the maps to be readable on the MAC but you need a PC with internet access to do this. And by the way, your PC had better be running XP or Vista. Windows 2000 may work but 98, 98SE do not.Customer Review: Fair - Could be Better
Summary: 3 Stars
Fair general purpose maps but for obvious reasons lacks detail. It would be difficult to provide highly detailed maps of every country in the world but I was hoping for something in the middle. I used this CD for a recent trip to Mongolia and it worked well enough but did not have certain ponds and rivers. Would be nice if they can team up with Google Earth to make maps.Customer Review: Worldmap Mapsource
Summary: 5 Stars
The maps provived provide excellent detail, having checked it out with my trip taken in 2000 and 2004.
Furthermore, the proof of the pudding comes this sept when i go to China.
