Navigator Dorset

This work provides a fully revised sheet map featuring Philip's exceptionally large-scale and detailed Navigator[registered] mapping covering the whole of Dorset, Bournemouth and Poole. The map is part of Philip's series of Navigator[registered] sheet maps, each covering a county. At a scale of 1 1/2 miles to 1 inch the full road network is shown, including minor country lanes, rural tracks and even major footpaths, plus every junction, roundabout and slip-road. There is much other detail, including individually named farms, houses and hamlets. Also shown are airports, airfields, stations, ferries, canals, marinas and numerous places of interest. The map has a comprehensive index and includes town plans of Bournemouth, Dorchester and Poole. This series of maps is designed for both professional and leisure users. For professionals, the wealth of detail makes activities such as regional planning and delivery driving far easier. Also, the map and index are printed on the same side of the sheet to allow hanging as a wall map.
For leisure, the comprehensive road detail makes navigation in rural areas much more certain, and increases the pleasure of touring by opening up new possibilities. The series is popular with cyclists, because each map covers a much greater area than one OS Landranger map, yet still shows the full road and off-road network. Steep hills are indicated for cycle route-planning.
