Mapster Description

Mapster is an easy to use application designed to help you create custom topographic maps of arbitrary size for printing. Mapster lets you choose any size map; it can draw in a nice map legend; it can draw UTM grids and edge ticks on the map; and it can draw latitude/longitude marks and edge ticks on the map. The basic thing you do with Mapster is: · Input the coordinates, either in latitude/longitude coordinates (make sure you use a negative longitude for West longitudes; and all of the US is in west longitudes!) or in UTM coordinates. You do this by choosing File->NewMap. · Then you specify the length and width of the map in meters or miles. This is also done in the New Map Dialog. · Then you download the specified map. Just click the Get This Map button on the New Map · Then play with the map features (grids, map legend). You can play with font size, line thickness, etc.. You can do this by clicking on Map Features. · Then save your map to an image file. From here you can print it out with some other piece of software, etc. Mapster can only save in the PNG image format. Do this by choosing File->Save Map Image.
