Does the pre-loaded topo maps for the 550 cover Alaska?

I have the Garmin 450t. the 100k topo map does include Alaska. I also have the Montana 650t alot better gps for the buck.

No idea.... I don't have a 550! Sorry... I loaded topo maps from a free online website onto an SD card and put it in my 450.

I believe topographical maps are available in a desperate package from Magellan for a fee. Check with them online for details and pricing.

Yes it has maps for all over the world. accuracy varies though by satellites available, not sure how many satellites Canada has invested in, but as a major affluent country, I would say probably pretty well.

I don't recall, as I already have it installed, and yes it will show location/altitude/etc. in the metadata. It's a free download from here:http://nikonimglib.com/nvnx/

I don't think Garmin has topo maps to most countries. Even if they did, you'd only be able to load a relatively small area as you're limited to 24 mb. There may be workarounds to use non Garmin maps, but they are beyond me.

Yes. There are TOPO maps wich are more for hiking and there are the road maps.

I ordered the 600 and got a cd with the topo maps on it so I could use the cd with other devices. Can't answer re: the free ones.

The Astro 220 is not pre loaded with any maps. There is a micro SD slot under the batteries to expand the memory if needed. Maps can be purchased from the Garmin website and then loaded onto the Astro 220.

no, this from garmin's web page. " It comes in 2 mapping versions and has preloaded maps for the lower 48 states plus Hawaii and Puerto Rico, or full coverage of the U.S. and Canada. : https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/on-the-road/automotive/previous%20models/nuvi-40lm/prod100852.html

It is preloaded with 1-100,000 scale, not the 1-24,000 scale which has far more detail. I suggest buying the 1-24,000 scale SD card which is true topo. .

No, it has US maps only. If you want Europe maps you will need to buy them separately. It looks like that in US this model is named "VIA 1400M" and Europe it has name "Start 20"

The unit could be used world wide except in war zones there the GPS could be distorted. However if you buy the unit bundled with the maps (version that ends on t) the topo-map will be specific for your country.

gpsfiledepot.com has a number of excellent free topo maps for different regions of the US. I've used the Souheast Topo United States and (3) Northeast Topo United States maps quite a bit. These don't seem to be actively updated. May be ~4yo. Others may be updated more often. Search on the website for maps of the states you need.

The 600 does not have preloaded maps. I purchased a City Navigator NT map and a local topo map separately. Happy with both maps. Saved money buying only what I need.

The preloaded maps that came with my GPSMap 78 were completely useless. I had to add a micro sd card plus purchase a city map program to bring mine up to speed. Once you do that, it's an awesome device. A marine specific program or topo map might be what your husband would need in his kayak.

Simple answer: No. You'll need to buy separately detailed topo maps. I use the Southeast US one, for example.
