Choose the mapping you want then preview on the Satmap site.
Transalp map covers popular Italian, German and Austrian alpine areas in one block.

There are two major new continental mapping developments from Satmap with the launch of both a customised mapping service for six European countries and the launch of a new Transalp map which covers a selection of popular alpine areas at various scales.

Site-Centred Mapping

The customised mapping service means you can now purchase a site-centred map not only for the UK, but also for Austria, France, Germany, Spain and Switzerland. The scale is 1:25K for all countries except Austria where only 1:50K scale data is available.

A new Satmap web tool means you can preview the map before purchase and make any changes necessary. You simply enter the centre point of the map as a latitude and longitude coordinate and the size and the tool will generate an outline of the map.

There are four different size options available for non-UK countries and being able to customise the map means you can buy more efficiently and without purchasing mapping you don't need. More at www.satmap.com/site_centred.php.

Transalp Map

The second new development is the launch of the Transalp Map which covers an area of 93,000 square kilometers including the key mountain ranges in Germany, Austria and Italy with map scales varying between 1:54K to 1:7K.

Satmap already covers the individual areas, but buying them in bulk is cheaper particularly if you visit those areas of the Alps regularly. That's not to say it's cheap – the retail price is £199.99, but it's still more cost effective than buying the maps individually.

Full details and online buying at www.satmap.com or you can order from a Satmap retailer.
