Title: Map descriptions?
Post by: SWriverstone on August 23, 2010, 10:42:09 AM

Hi---just bought TopoFusion Pro and am loving it! One quick question: is there anywhere I can find a concise description of each of the different types of maps available?

I obviously understand "topo" and "aerial," but several of the map types are meaningless to me ("urban") and I don't understand the difference in the various degree scales of some of the maps.

I guess I could just start Googling all these map types and do the research...but figured I'd check to see, Scott, if you had a concise description somewhere?

Aside from descriptions, it would also be nice to have a bit of useful info such as "This type of map is really good if you want to...whereas this other type of map is best for..."

Thanks,
Scott

Hi,

First, thanks for supporting TF!

This has some pretty good info on the different tilesets:

I like your idea about describing what maps are good for different purposes.  Might make a good little tutorial.  I'll add it to the 'todo' list.
