autoroute

Hi folks
Is there a better map program than autoroute.I want one that covers eastern block and turkey.Any ideas. cheers :unamused:

I have AutoRoute 2005 and use it for most UK & European work, however, I have also kept AutoRoute 2002 on my laptop as it covers the ‘other countires’ in much better detail.

For example, a route to Czech, Bosnia, Kosovo, Serbia etc stops at the bottom of Austria on AR 05 (and then just shows a straight line to your destination town/city) but with AR 02 it still gives a proper route with directions etc etc.

The other main difference is if you are using a GPS mouse button; the refresh rate with AR 02 is about every 10 secs, by which time you have passed the turn you wanted, but with AR 05 the refresh rate is every 1 sec!!

I’ll have alook later (i’m not on the laptop now) and see how good it is for E Block & Turkey.

eastern europe isnt really well mapped beyond what you have already teleatlas say i think by 2008 to have the old eastern block countries mapped im not sure what navteqs answer is though these two are the main players in digital mapping in europe
