USA Photo Maps

USA Photo Maps is a small Windows application designed to help users grab USGS (United States Geodedic Survey) aerial photos, save them to the computer, and create GPS maps.

It sports a clean interface that gives users the possibility to download maps by specifying a name for the map and providing information about the latitude and longitude coordinates.

What’s more, the program is able to import data from XML, HST, TCX, or GPX, and you can print the maps.

USA Photo Maps gives users the possibility to select the map type (black and white, coloured areas, or topographical maps), adjust the level of brightness, activate the UTM grid, and insert waypoints.

Other important features worth mentioning allow users to go to the specified address and populated places, view the location set by the specified latitude and longitude, as well as zoom in or out of the map, and create routes.

During our testing we have noticed that USA Photo Maps downloads maps very quickly and without errors throughout the entire process. It doesn’t eat up a lot of CPU and memory, so it doesn’t burden the overall performance of computer, nor interfere with other programs’ functionality.

To sum things up, USA Photo Maps proves to be a reliable application that allows users to download maps and insert routes and waypoints. It offers very good image quality and can be used by beginners and professionals alike.
