4. What is a Geo-PDF map? A PDF is a very common form of digital image data that is in a Portable Document Format. A GeoPDF file is a geospatial or geo-referenced PDF file that relates the map image (PDF) to a ground system of geographic coordinates (eg. longitude and latitude). Every spot on earth has its own unique longitude and latitude coordinates. The relevant earth coordinates are typically stored directly in the PDF image file. These GeoPDF files are very useful when used in coordination with a navigation application as they can be used in real time to locate your current location on the map.
5. How do you send your digital maps to us? After your purchase the digital maps you ordered are automatically e-mailed to you along with the directions of how to use and install them.
6. Why can't I print the GeoPDF map file? Because we offer our maps in both paper (waterproof & tear-resistant) and digital (Geo PDF) formats we do not enable printing of our digital maps. These digital maps are exclusively designed to be used on a mobile device.
