This new TOPO product is designed for interactive viewing of detailed topographic maps and land elevation contours on the Mac with purchase of the DVD. It will also allow the user to view elevation profiles on compatible GPS units. TOPO U.S. 2008 is vector-based and contains descriptive details for features typically found on topographic maps.

- You will require the MapInstall program for the Mac to transfer the mapping data to your GPS,
- You can create waypoints, routes and tracks on the Mac with the Garmin City Navigator but you will require the Garmin Bobcat program to transfer them to or from your Garmin GPS.
