New Features in Version 2.0
The upgrade to the software engine includes all of the functionality
you have used in the past along with many new features.
- New – Split-Screen allows Side-by-Side Viewing of New and
Current Datasets
- Split-screen view allows you to have access to other current
detailed datasets from Delorme, including natural color satellite
imagery and high-resolution aerial photos. As you probably know, the
USGS 7.5-minute (1:24,000-scale) topo maps are on the average over 20
years old. The new 3-D TopoQuads 2.0 engine allows you to use other
more current datasets alongside the quad maps in a split-screen
configuration. By viewing the new imagery synchronized with the older
quad data, you can easily identify new roads and other map features in
your area of interest. New datasets include Sat10 and the DOQ Data
Reader.
-
- New – Copy Your Data to the Hard Drive
- With 3-D TopoQuads 2.0, you can have access to your whole collection
of data CDs without having to swap the data disk in and out of your CD
drive. Simply copy all of the CDs to your hard drive, and point the
new engine to the archived copy. You can copy the one CD you use most
often, or copy the whole collection to your hard drive and 3-D
TopoQuads Version 2.0 will view them as one seamless map data set.
-
- New – Improved Draw Tools
- Additional annotation features have been added including rectangles,
arcs, and splines. DeLorme has also added a large list of map symbols,
or you can create your own symbols using the XSym tools.

- New – Shaded Relief
- 3-D TopoQuads uses the digital elevation model to create artificial
shadows, thereby adding depth and realism to the map images. This
shaded relief layer can be turned on and off, looks great on both 2-D
and 3-D maps, and can be used with your 3-D TopoQuads data, or with
any other DeLorme topographic map.
-
- New – Printing Options
- Now print up to 11x17 color maps, or create multi-page mural maps up
to 3 sheets by 3 sheets. Take a larger map with you on your next
weekend hiking trip or produce large poster-sized mural maps for the
next presentation.
-
- New – Right-Mouse Functions
- 3-D TopoQuads 2.0 has added the most used functions to the right
button mouse click. When you click on the map with the right button
3-D TopoQuads 2.0 will display a content sensitive menu of short cuts.
You quickly add a MapNote, edit routes, or delete annotations to name
a few.
