Topos US at Mac App Store analyse

Das neueste Update lässt sich nicht komplett herunterladen und bricht mit einer Fehlermeldung während des Ladevorgangs ab. Auch wenn man die App löscht und komplett neu installieren möchte erzielt man nur den gleichen Effekt. Es ist keine Neuinstallation möglich. Bitte unbedingt nachbessern.

all the maps I downloaded of my area were from the 60s and 70s. what am I suppose to do with a topo map of my city that hasnt been updated in 50yrs?

As someone who spends a fair amount of time in the deserts of Arizona, I appreciate a good topo map (and compass!). I bought this to be able to take a look at the maps Id dowloaded on my iPhone 3GS, but on my MUCH larger 26" screen. As a way to download USGS Topo Maps, its good. As a way to plan a hunt, which I was doing, not so much. Ive admittedly played with this for about 15 minutes, but Ive already got a list of things lacking/future improvements. They are: Intuitive controls: Can only zoom by clicking the =/- button. Kept spinning the mouse wheel to zoom and nothing would happen. Very frustrating after the first couple of times. Squeeze to zoom/unzoom support would be awesome. More functionality: The ability to stitch maps together into one large map would be spectacular. I can do this in my iPhone, but not here. Switching back and forth between the individual maps got very confusing, very quickly. I had no feel at all for how this particlular area of Arizona was oriented and no feel for how the individual maps fit together or were related to one another. Also, the ability to add waypoints or icons and plan routes would be great. Unlike some other reviewers, the map dates arent really an issue for me. The maps are made, maintained and updated by the federal government, not by the developer of this app. The developer has absolutely no control over this whatsoever. As long as I know the map was made and updated in, say, 1967, then Ill know to expect some differences between what I see on the ground and whats on the map. This is good for what it is, but with some added features it could be great.

I was disappointed to find out that New York State was missing. Other states missing; North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, and West Virginia. The maps that are loaded are good quality.

All of these maps (and more) are available for free from usgs.gov. Using this app is a bit more convenient than using the USGS website, but the maps are down-sampled. This makes it easier to pan around, but when you zoom in it doesnt have the fine detail anymore.

Diappointed to see that my state and many other states are not available for download. This issue needs to be addressed for this program to be useful

I wanted to access Alaska topos quickly, but no Alaska maps are loaded in this version.
