Zumo 550 / UK Topo detail

[Eddy802]

Hi,
Is anyone using this combination, and if so can you tell me if the topo map set bring OS level detail to the Zumo?

In particular I'm interested to know if byways are marked. With green laning in mind.

If the additional info is purely contour lines and spot heights I see little benefit in the spend.

Knowledge or opinion welcomed (please specify).

Many thanks

Eddy

I had topo NL on my zumo, i dont seem to remember it having contour lines, just gave massive amount of info, cycle lanes, walking paths, fields and the like. Im thinking the topo map just superinposes itself on top of your current maps, adding every detail you wouldnt need when your driving on a highway.

It was a pain when driving, just too much un-needed info, though i would reinstal it if i was greenlaning. But it was downloaded and i was just seeing what the difference was.

Hope that helps
