forest-ghost Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 I noticed when I upgraded to the pro offline maps that there aren't any topo lines for my local area in Missouri. This was a feature I had long been hoping for and was pretty disappointed when the new pro maps looked almost exactly like my old offline maps. The picture in the release page for cachly 8.0 shows topo lines for the maps Washington. When I downloaded the Washington topo map it looks really different than the map for my area. Was this feature only added for certain states? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forest-ghost Posted April 14 Author Report Share Posted April 14 Here are images of the pro maps for my local area in a park with lots of elevation changes and hills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team DEMP Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 After you downloaded the base map, did you also download the Extras Contours & Hillshades for the state/region? if not, go back into the maps download area and select North America / United States and under Washington see if there is the download icon for Contour & Hillshades and download that too.

forest-ghost Posted April 14 Author Report Share Posted April 14 Yes that was the first thing I checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forest-ghost Posted April 14 Author Report Share Posted April 14 Also, when I went to delete the individual state map for MissourI I was unable to do so. I can delete the contours but not the state map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team DEMP Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 I download MO maps and I see the topo/contours in various places such as just south of Jefferson City. If you go to this and zoom in so you see what I show below? I wasn't clear if you also downloaded Washington State and you see the elevations there and just not in your Missouri download?

You need to make a different offline map active or an online map such as Google or Apple and then you should be able to delete any offline map.

Yes I was able to see the topo contours for Jeff city. I guess the map for St. Louis doesn’t have as much shading. All the big parks in my area are devoid of topo lines.

Yes there are some pretty big hills in that park. There are a bunch of really hilly areas that don’t show any topo lines. For reference: Rockwoods Reservation, Greensfelder County Park, Babler State Park, Weldon Spring to name a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would need to regenerate the topo maps and hillshades to provide more detail, but not sure when I will get to that. what are the coordinates for this location?

forest-ghost Posted April 15 Author Report Share Posted April 15 That would be really awesome. The coords for Rockwoods Reservation are N 38° 34.002 W 090° 40.233 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
