Sure Dan, http://www.mapability.com/index1.html?http&&&www.mapability.com/info/vmap0_intro.html A good intro with links to the ftp site. One can purchase CD's, too. (for $70-100, though) These go great with the Silicon Sea, by the way, as long as you're not too far from shore. :) Mitch -----Original Message----- From: Dan Allen [mailto:danallen46@COMCAST.NET] Sent: Wednesday, December 03, 2003 4:06 PM To: NAVIGATION-L@LISTSERV.WEBKAHUNA.COM Subject: Re: ONC Charts online On Wednesday, December 3, 2003, at 05:01 AM, Mitch Burrill wrote: > I think the best mapping at 15 to 20 miles per inch is the Operational > Navigation Chart 1:1000000 series, published by NIMA.

I found a page about the digital "vmap level zero" form at: http://www.nima.mil/cda/article2/0,2421,3104_12137_114494,00.html but I cannot find a download of it. It is sold through USGS. Do you by chance know of a URL where it can be downloaded? Thanks, Dan
