Hello all,
Years ago I used some complicated instructions utilizing topographical maps from different states, tiger lines, mapdems program, tiger lines, etc. to create two baseboards maps, one of Cajon Pa area, and Barstow, Mojave desert. The routes of roads and tracks laid out, but you had to create grades and such. It had the soaring mountains, even off in the distance. Realistic mileage, so forth.
I want to create a fictional route based on the original San Diego and Arizona, and need a base map of the San Diego and Tecate area. But many of the programs and such are outdated or unavailable.
I was wondering if anyone has a new method or procedure newer than 2008-era. Technologies have advanced so much.
Thanks,
Stewart
