A little info on the included mapping software:

Garmin licensed the NAVTECH map data which is one of the most detailed and updated map sources. The North America map bundle includes street-level maps and hightway data of the US as well as selected metro areas of Canada. The street-level maps and database from NAVTECH include a large number of POIs (points of interest). They not only get the most up-to-date material collected from all levels of government, planning agencies, police and fire departments and aerial photographs, but also they have a unique approach to collecting hands-on data in real time. NAVTECH has over 100 field offices staffed with over 400 analysts and engineers who drive everyday to collect data and feed it daily to the live database. NAVTECH uses up to 150 data attributes in each road segment that may affect the way you get from one place to another. These road attributes are characteristics of the roads and include Road Names, Address Ranges, Turn-restrictions, One-way Info, Time of Day Restrictions, Speed, and more. So the data you get from the NAVTECH database is not only updated frequently but is the most complete in terms of road and traffic conditions. If you wish to sample the map data, you can use MapQuest.com since it also uses the map data provided by NAVTECH.

 

Be sure to also check out the topographic map software for your GPS at Maptech.com.  It works the same as other maps where your coordinates are still displayed and tracking is real time where the map moves with you and your position  This is the best software you can have with you hands down.
