TopoFushion

 

Product Description

TopoFusion is GPS Mapping software created by Microsoft for Windows Operating Systems. You can download maps (Aerial Photo, Satellite, and Topo) from Microsoft's TerraServer and NASA's OnEarth server. You then can store them on your hard drive for later offline use.

You can download the free version. The only problem with this is that 1/3rd of the map tiles are covered with "DEMO" accross them. To remove this you can register the software for $40.
