Maps with Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

Information: a Digital Elevation Model is a file which contains information about land height in each point of the map. Garmin maps format can include a DEM, so that a hill shading like in the image below can be shown.

It is also possible with a DEM to see maps in 3D on BaseCamp and devices with such option (Oregon 600 for example).

Additionally, maps with DEM are able to calculate vertical profil of routes created in a computer or in a GPS device (if the model has such capability).

Smile I'm looking forward to DEM of China! Thanks for what you've done and it is really helpful!
Admin:
DEM maps require some extra processing time and current server has all day time occupied generating maps, so at this moment I can't add China DEM. I'm currently migrating to a new server which will presumably save some processing time, then I'll have a chance to add new tasks. But it will take some time (weeks), I can't give you a date.

How install DEM Italy in Basecamp?
Admin:
Unzip the file you downloaded and read Install.txt file. The way to install depends on your operating system.
