I don't know. I went to the NASA site, too, and decided I didn't want an image that big. I'm sure some universities do, and it probably represents the best image, but sheesh, it's not very useful to the public.

Could this be the reason for the difference in magnetic and true north?

I just finished downloading all 203 megabytes of the colored map. Nice detail -- just not every image display program can load it. InfraView32 did handle it -- but still thrashed the virtual memory and took a couple minutes to load up -- even though the file is on local disk.

I'd like to see such an image ot South Africa if anyone knows of one ...
