I have looked at offerings from MemoryMap and Anquet, but once you scale beyond a small area they become prohibitively expensive.

For what kind of device? – Pekka 웃 Jan 24 '12 at 21:15
IIRC - MemoryMap and Anquet are PC/CD-ROM based maps... my question is: for what purpose? – HorusKol Jan 25 '12 at 2:55

"Europe" is too localised? – Chris Ballard Jan 31 '12 at 21:19

@ChrisBallard I agree. The concencus here (outdoors.stackexchange.com/questions/64/…) was that this question was ok, so respecting that I think it should be reopened unless someone comes up with a good reason otherwise. – berry120 Feb 1 '12 at 0:16

@Shog9 It's not too localized; if the problem is the shopping aspect, it should be reopened and re-closed as off-topic. – Kevin♦ Feb 1 '12 at 0:33

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

You don't say what area specifically you're looking at, or what your budget is - but Anquet seems to do a number of electronic copies of standard OS maps for prices I wouldn't consider unreasonable here.

Of course, if you mean the whole of the UK / Europe then the cost will be high, but I don't think there's really much getting around that. It unfortunately seems to be the case that if you want this level of detail, you have to pay for it! Who knows, in the future perhaps prices will come down somewhat.
