States Included in Regional Map Packages

Regional map packages are DeLorme-created, multi-state data regions that provide
much greater detail (.25-mile scale and up, more roads, better routing connectivity,

etc.) than the base map on the device. Not all devices require regional map
packages. Regional map packages contain only XMap USA Topographic Data.
