I may add in future DEM shading for devices for zoom levels 5km or 10km to 30km - this helps understanding the topography a bit - however even though I looked at optimizing this as well as possible - it still slows down the map drawing when panning the map around quite substantially (it's not too bad as first the map is drawn - then in a second step it's shaded). On your Garmin GPS device I have so far not enabled DEM (if you set show DEM to auto it will not show) - I'm working on adding this a couple of weeks later - but as it is only useful when zoomed out very far (if you're zoomed in close it only makes the map darker - and the GPS device screen is too small to properly see the altitude profile properly if zoomed in close). altitude profiles for tracks, a more plastic and easier to understand topography overview in Basecamp on desktop - and the quite useful 3D view in Basecamp (make sure to set elevation exaggeration in Options -> Display -> scroll down to 3D to 0% - the default 100% is really too much inside the Alps.Ībove the Lago die Garda and some of it's nicest trails - notice the DEM shading. Todays and Tomorrows map update will now bring DEM to all maps - this has quite a few advantages. Some of you may have noticed - that the European country maps since last week now include a DEM - digital elevation model in addition to the contourlines.
