Canadian Toporama CDROMs from CIS
=================================
For more information see:

The Canadian Centre for Topographic Information has a website called Toporama
containing free digital data that includes topographic map images. These map
images are not the equivalent of scans of paper topographic maps. There are
companies that sell products based on scanning the Canadian Government paper
NTS topographic maps.

Features of the CDROMs:
* Contain both 1:250,000 and 1:50,000 scale topographic map images
* Full set provides complete coverage of Canada at the 1:250,000 scale
* Partial coverage of Canada at the 1:50,000 scale, with the areas not covered
  typically being unpopulated areas in northern Canada
* Calibrated for use with OziExplorer
* JPR map calibration files included, to allow the maps to be used with
  Fugawi, Memory-Map Navigator, and PathAway
* The map images retain the original modification date from the Toporama website
  in order to make checking for updates easier
* Organized according to the Canadian NTS System Index Maps

There are certain Terms and Conditions associated with the use of these map
images, which are listed in the TermsAndConditions.txt file on this CDROM,
and which are binding on you.

The map images are © Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada, Department of
Natural Resources. All rights reserved.

This CDROM Contains:
====================
\Readme.txt -- this file
\TermsAndConditions.txt -- TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE OF TOPORAMA DATA
\250\ -- directory containing the 1:250,000 scale map images
\50K\ -- directory containing the 1:50,000 scale map images
\DRGMapCal\ -- directory containg support files for DRGMapCal: the Visual
               Basic 6 Run-Time files self-extracting exe file, and the
               MSCOMCTL.zip file.
               The current version of the DRGMapCal program can always be
               obtained from the DRGMapCal webpage:
               http://members.shaw.ca/davepatton/drgmapcal/
\IndexMap\ -- directory containing small and large versions of the index map,
              with OziExplorer and JPR calibration files
\JPR\250\ -- directory containing the JPR calibration files for the
             map images in the \250 directory
\JPR\50K\ -- directory containing the JPR calibration files for the
             map images in the \50K directory
\MAP\250\ -- directory containing the OziExplorer map calibration files to
             enable the 1:250,000 scale map images to be used in OziExplorer
\MAP\50K\ -- directory containing the OziExplorer map calibration files to
             enable the 1:50,000 scale map images to be used in OziExplorer

Using the map images with OziExplorer
=====================================
Copy the .map files in the MAP subdirectories onto your hard drive.
As supplied on the CDROM, the .map files have the Image File Path set to
D:\250\ or D:\50K\ so the maps will be able to be used immediately if your
CDROM drive is your D drive. If your CDROM drive uses another drive letter,
or you have copied the map images to your hard drive, you will have to use
OziExplorer to adjust the Image File Path in the .map files.

Using the JPR files with Fugawi, Memory-Map Navigator, or Pathaway
==================================================================
While each of these programs can use JPR files, the programs are
from different companies, and they all have different levels of
support for JPR files.

Because the JPR file needs to be in the same directory as the image being
imported, you will have to copy the JPR files and the corresponding map
images to your hard drive, then perform the import. Typically the JPR file
has to have the same name as the corresponding image file, so if you rename
one file, you have to rename both. This will be an issue if you are using
the supplied JPR files for the Volume 6 Index Map insets.

The supplied JPR files allow the map images to be imported into Fugawi,
based on the Fugawi "JPR file format Version 1.14".

Memory-Map Navigator does not support the same set of values in JPR files
that Fugawi supports.  The JPR files on this CDROM will work with
Memeory-Map Navigator 3.1.1, however, Memory-Map changed how JPR files
are handled, with the result that these JPR files do not work with
Memory-Map Navigator version 4.0. Memory-Map has informed me that
Memory-Map Navigator version 4.1 will again be able to read these JPR files.

Generating JPR files
====================
One of the features of the shareware DRGMapCal program is to create JPR files
from OziExplorer map calibration files.  DRGMapCal was used to produce the
JPR files on this CDROM.  The current version of DRGMapCal can be obtained
from the DRGMapCal webpage:  http://members.shaw.ca/davepatton/drgmapcal/
