When producing these booklets it is often convenient to have a
topographic
map of an area showing the contours of height superimposed on a street
and feature map.
Here is desktop software allowing you to do this and to save the
resulting file into a format suitable for online or physical printing.
The software will also allow you to increase the resolution of the
image, often useful
when printing to physical media like books or mugs.
The software is now using data directly from NASA's Shuttle Radar
Topography Mission (SRTM),
and is available without charge. The resolution is now very good
allowing authors to
create contour diagrams of the region of interest, almost anywhere in
the world.
This is obviously with the support of the American space program.
