different company covering the same line/region.

QUALITY SAMPLE - ZOOM VIEWS:
All of these maps are shown in extreme high quality, high
level of detail. These are top quality scans, not some of the
lower cheapo quality scans some other folks are selling! Most of
these maps were 36" or 48" wide, and they are scanned in at the highest
setting at full size. You can take these images to your local
print shop, and get full size color prints that are 36" or more wide to
hang on your wall, and the quality is there to make it look like the
original map. That is why you may not get a huge number of maps on
one CD, because the file sizes are fairly large. Most of these
image files are 5-10 Megs in size, EACH, and that is in a compressed
format! Here is a sample close up to give you an idea of the kind
of grade A material we are talking about here:

And finally, at the highest zoom setting (full size,
normal view), here is what it looks like:
Custom viewer software to is required to view these
files, but that is all included on this disk for you! You will not
need to purchase any additional software to view these files in the
detail as they are designed to be at. This disk is supported by
Windows. |
