I see no way to update the construction information. However, some updated construction is missing. This product does provide decent topo along with normal road, street and highway presentation. It is easy to manage moving to my Garmin GPSMap 60CSx the data I need.
There isn't an easy way to show profiles for a route. Then I upload the route information to the GPS. I bought this because it has the topo maps and interface for the Garmin 60 CSx. I'm not very impressed with the quality of the maps. I plan all my routes and waypoints in Maptech Terrain Navigator Colorado because it contains the necessary detail. However, they still should have common roads and trails. The menus are not grouped logically.
I really only use this because it provides the maps for the GPS unit itself. I don't see why can't Garmin provide some of these features.
I realize they are only 1:100K maps so they won't have the contour detail of some of the software that provides 1:24K for an entire state. Delorme Topo USA has way more features and even 1:24K scale for the same price.
I've used my GPS and software in the Colorado and Wyoming mountains. It doesn't provide a 3-D view.
National Geographic TOPO is great too if you need 1:24K detail. They are missing a lot of detail such as common hiking trails and 4wd roads.
I don't think the software user interface is all that intuitive or powerful either.
This is a very detailed program but i have trouble switching between this and citynavigator on the Garming CSX 60.
Great buy, I use it all the time. Has all the little wierd side streets that you didn't know were there. This software is great. Complete maps of the US.
For a general map of the area it is OK and that sll it is good for.I would not recomend buying it because of its limitations. This does not provide the detail you normall get from a TOPO map. I found trails and roads missing.
