So what is the difference between the Platinum
and Gold? The only difference is the map scale. The Platinum uses a far more
detailed map compared with the Gold. This is the reason why the Platinum set
contains more CDs and is more money. The Gold gives you medium detail topography
and comes with a very affordable price.
Comparison Chart:
1:24,000 scale (7.5 minute)- 1 inch =
2,000 feet, Contour Interval = 20 feet
1:100,000 scale - 1 inch = 1.6 miles, Contour Interval = 50 meters (150 feet)
Note: It takes 32 maps at the 1:24,000 scale to equal the same coverage as one 1:100,000
scale map.
