Well the best source of maps is the CIA world map data base, they give you
the points of the whole world in latitude and longitude, and you can blow
up any portion (They have some neat sewers in vietnam). I have a tape, but
I won't have access to it for a while (5 meg of data) I heard that there
is a file in simtel20.arpa of 1 meg that is a lower resolution version.

You can contact kpeterson@simtel20.arpa, or use a listserv to find out what
the name of the file is.

If you get it to work in postscript I'd be interested.
