this is a topo map --this map isnt routable
Contour lines are lines drawn on a map connecting points of equal elevation. If you walk along a contour line you neither gain or lose elevation
Contour lines are useful because they allow us to show the shape of the land surface (topography) on a map

Showing elevation is a necessity with regards to GPS data you might want to bring your 4x4 vehicle instead of a car when going to low lying areas specially flood prone places.

In Mapsource, select, with the Map Tool,
1) the entire Contour Map or a specific Area,
2) If you have say OpenStreetMap of the Philippines, select this also?
3) then select the RoadGuide,ph Map with thast 'Map Tool'
Then 'Send to Device' all these selected Map areas and it will upload them all (so can take some time as 'Contour Map' is BIG!).
You can then turn off RoadGuide and see OSM version. Both will have the 10M Contours. overlaid!
If that makes the Navigation Screen too 'busy' then one can turn off the 'Open Truth Map' for the 10m Contours display, and turn it back on as/when needed. Same with turning off OSM and re-activating view of RoadGuideLast edited by drhookster; 2nd July 2011 at 04:32 PM.

@catymag
Is the file in the original post newer than the file in the link in the OSM wikipedia?
How do you transfer this map to the 3790T? What filename should I use?
