FAQ'S
1. What Maps come with the eTrex Touch device:
This unit has TopoActive Europe mapping on the internal memory
Garmin TOPO ACTIVE mapping is a proper digital map, as you zoom in you get more information and as you zoom out you get less. BUT, it is not an Ordnance Survey map, therefore it does not differentiate between Bridleways and Footpaths, it just marks them as paths.
It covers 47 European countries, compiled using the community-generated OpenStreetMap (OSM) database. Coverage for: Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Kosovo, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Moldova, Monaco, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia (Kaliningrad only), San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom and the Vatican City.
2. Can I get full GB Ordnance Survey Maps for Great Britain for the NEW eTrex Touch?
As there is no memory card slot / options for this device, the only way you can add the Garmin Topo GB Pro OS maps are to purchase them as a download directly from Garmin and install them to the internal storage of the device.
N.B. When you do this type of download of maps from Garmin they are locked to the device that you download them to and cannot be transferred to a different device in the future.
We do stock regional OS Map card vouchers that could be used with this device for downloading smaller regions of OS 1:25k maps to the device.
N.B. A computer is required for this with Garmin Express Software installed.
More info on the regional vouchers here
