• Works with many types of raster maps—even those you scan in yourself—in the most popular file formats, including GeoTIFF, JPEG, PDF, PSD, ECW and BSB. Full List
  
  
  For optimum resolution and seamless map stitching, we recommend our MacTopos Maps series. MacGPS Pro is also an excellent viewer for USGS Digital Raster Graphic topo maps, NOS/GEO and BSB versions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 charts, FAA flight sectionals, and many other digital maps.
  
  Digital maps come in two different types. Raster maps are a scanned or photographed image of a paper map. This is the type of map that MacGPS Pro uses. Vector map files contain a mathematical description of the lines and areas that make up the map. MacGPS Pro does not support maps in vector format. Garmin "*.IMG" files are vector maps.
  
  Maps and charts in raster-image formats such as TIF, PNG, JPG, GIF, PDF, PSD, ECW, and BSB can be opened or imported into MacGPS Pro. These images will be automatically georeferenced if they are in GeoTIFF format, in ECW format, in GeoPDF format, in BSB format, or if they are accompanied by a "world" file, a "*.IMP" file (a CompeGPS calibration file), a "*.JPR" file (a Fugawi calibration format) or a "*.MAP" file (an OziExplorer calibration file). OziExplorer OZF2 image files are not supported.
  
  Maps may be purchased, obtained by downloading them from the Internet, or by scanning them yourself. Maps can be calibrated and used on your Macintosh screen with or without a GPS receiver connected. USGS, TVA and Teale (California) DRG maps, DOQQs, and many other maps from diverse sources are automatically calibrated. Maps that do not contain calibration information can be manually calibrated with ease by clicking on a few known points. Check our Digital Map Library to help find maps for your area.
  
  Please note that MacGPS Pro does not upload maps to any GPS receiver; the maps are used on the Macintosh screen. For raster maps on a handheld device, see our iHikeGPS and iSailGPS apps for the iPhone and iPad.
  
  
• Seamlessly stitches maps and charts together for USA, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand topo maps, ECW maps, and world-wide BSB-format marine charts. How It Works
  
  
  If you have a map file already open in MacGPS Pro and open another map file with the same map projection and standard coordinates, then both maps will appear in the Map Window. Under the View menu, check “Remove Map Margins” so the margin of one map does not cover part of the adjacent map. With the margins removed, the two adjacent maps will automatically appear stitched together.
  
  
• Calculates your speed and travel direction based on track log locations and times.
• Capable of handling up to 65,000 waypoints, 250,000 track points, and 50 routes with 300 waypoints on each route.
• Graphically edit waypoints, routes and tracks. Split or join track log segments.
• Generate Waypoints for your favorite geotagged photos.
• Link photos, websites or any other files to GPS waypoints.
• Hide individual Waypoints, Routes & Tracks.
• Optional large real-time position display makes for easy viewing at a distance or a quick glance.
• Save GPS data as editable, tab-delimited text files for exchange with spreadsheets such as Excel, database software like Filemaker, and text-editing applications like BBEdit.
• Elevation feature allows you to plot the altitude profile for track logs and routes.
• Almost anything can be used as a map. Just scan it, save it as a TIFF or JPEG file, and georeference it with a few known points. Full Instructions
  
  
  Follow these instructions for importing your own scanned maps:

  
  
  1. Scan in any paper map.
  2. Save the scanned image as a TIFF, PNG or JPEG file.
  3. From the File menu, choose “Import…” and select your file.
  4. The software prompts you to enter map data, including projection and datum. (This is typically found along most outer margins of a printed map.)
  5. The scanned image is then displayed in the map window.
  6. Click on a known point and enter its latitude and longitude. (Refer to the MacGPS Pro Help menu).
     
  7. Repeat with at least one other known point (four points is ideal).
  8. Click "Done".
     
  9. Your map is now georeferenced and ready to use.
