Thank you very much to all who replied!
After another week of searching, I've decided to walk the dust path:
I've downloaded VMAP0 and GTOPO30 and we will be working on them to
create the maps. After that we will know exactly if and what data we
need to achieve the level of detail needed, and the search will continue
from there.
Below is the sum of the replies:
Original Post:
Dear list,
I'm trying to find a world database suitable for print. I work for an
editor that wants to print its own atlasses. We have the data for
Europe, and for the rest of the world I think that a 1:5.000.000
database should be enough. Anyone has/knows/reccomends/care to comment
on that?
Thanks,
Dan CRACIUN
