GPS F.A.Q. Q. Can I load one of the International Jeppesen databases into my Garmin GPS unit if I currently have an Americas database?A. Yes. You can get a diskette for whichever database you want to download to the unit. It is important to realize that the old database will be erased, so if you want to restore the original database at a later time, you will also need an additional diskette in order to change back. It is also important to note that models with built-in mapping (such as the GPS III Pilot, GPSMAP 195 and GPSMAP 295) will show built-in ground map detail for only one of two regions: North/Central/South America or Europe/Africa/Asia/Australia. Updating the Jeppesen database will not affect the built-in "base map". For example, if a GPS III Pilot with Americas Jeppesen database and Americas basemap is updated with an Atlantic International Jeppesen database, the Jeppesen data will then cover Europe and Africa. However, the built-in base map will still cover North, Central and South America - so the ground detail will not be the same quality provided by a GPS III Pilot with the International base map. The base map in your GPS receiver cannot be updated or changed. (Two notable exceptions are the GPSMAP 195 or GPSMAP 295 coupled with additional data on a plug-in cartridge . With the GPSMAP 195 or GPSMAP 295, you CAN have BOTH base maps in the receiver simultaneously. For the GPSMAP 195, base map data is available on plug-in cartridges allowing you to have one base map built-in and the other on a cartridge. For the GPSMAP 295, you would use a blank programmable plug-in cartridge and one of our MapSource line of CD-ROMs. This makes the GPSMAP 195 or GPSMAP 295 an ideal choice for the international traveler!)
