I haven't used any of the advertised cd-rom such
as AUSLUG, but I noticed in the last twelve months a few advertisements
appearing in different magazines for different types, I haven't really had much
of an interest in them because of price, until the atlas project surfaced. I
guess there will be more available as they are accepted by the market place.
Birds Australia should once a block size been agree on
approach one of the major map makers and convince them of the need for a series
of maps for our (birders) use. During the last atlas my bible was the NSW road
and rail atlas but this is now out of print. Gregory has since put out a series
on 4WD escapes which are great but have limited coverage.
For my own area around Parkes I do my own maps using Corel
draw which has solved my problem locally.
