    I am currently downloading it. I failed twice due to my internet connection.

    It certainly looks like a topo map with City Navigator Map. I however checked it out in the official website that streams it to the computer (you can see it in this
    Code:

    link) but I was not convinced. There are many streets that are not routable. As I am situated in Nairobi, if the download succeeds, I will let you know what exactly is going on.


    EDIT
    I have just downloaded it and checked it out and it is topo with city navigator. The roads have many more mistakes than other versions, at least in the part of Nairobi where I live. If anyone is interested in my checking out something specific, I will willingly do it and post the results here.

    Could you please indicate what you mean by 'mistakes'? Bear in mind the coverage of this map is not as detailed as - for instance - Western Europe. So not all roads may be included.

    Also, what other versions do you refer to? The only other version I am aware of is 2012.10 which covers Uganda and Kenya (also "Major urban areas with intertown roads" covered only).
