 Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2008 5:16 pm Post subject: Farm Roads on Uk Maps & Western Europe Map v715 |
 |
|
| I know TomTom say there is 99% detail on both the v715 UK and Western Europe Maps. A friend told me that on the Western Europe Map farm roads are not shown in the UK Can anyone confirm if there is a difference in the out of town mapping detail i.e farm roads being shown on the map. I was concidering getting the Western Europe Map but its of no use to me if it doesnt show the UK farm road details I need. Eveb if someone can confirm whether there is a difference between the v710 maps thata would help. |

If you name a location in the UK, I'll be happy to produce two screenshots from WE v710 and WE v715.

Cheers guys, yes farm tracks/footpaths/un-designated roads
As for an example N56*36'55" W2*31'40" or N55*41'18" W2*34'23" |

They both appear as dead end un-named roads with no restrictions.

Just for info, these roads are NOT on the maps for my Garmin (City Navigator v9) which uses Navteq maps not the TeleAtlas ones that TomTom use.
