Stand Alone Map Program

Co-pilot is a good stand alone. I believe the cost is $20 for lifetime. It downloads to your laptop/tablet/etc and does not use the internet except for updates.

Another vote for Copilot RV.

You are most likely running Google maps on the
Iphone with cell. You can download Google maps to the Ipad and use it with out Cell or Wifi, stand alone.
You will be down loading map areas and up dating is when you want to.
You will need GPS on whatever map you use.

Co-Pilot for navigationn on a tablet, trip planning is another problem, that was Delormes strong point, for looking at alternate routes and planning stops, doing it your way not most effficient routes like google. I find AllStays "Camp and RV" and "Truck and Travel" good for looking at end of day and fuel stop areas. A little old school the "Next EXIT" book is good for the copilot.

I use WAZE as a GPS. You can't map with it but it updates ever second that someone enters a "vehicle stopped on road" or "police". I bluetooth it to the stereo.

Google Maps works just fine without a data or cell connection as long as you download the maps before the trip. I just recently noticed that Maps did this automatically when I planned a short trip and a note popped up that about the download having been done to speed up routing information.

Microsoft Mappoint or Streets were great programs but won't operate on new operating systems and have been discontinued with no replacement. These were awesome planners. I still have an old computer with Mappoint. This is the only reason I keep it.
Wish they would bring it back.

Can WAZE do that.

I also have used DeLorme SA for over 10 years. I still use the 2013 version. However, I believe they have discontinued the SA product. I now use CoPilot on my Samsung tablet for the past year and find it very good. The maps are up to date (unlike DeLorme) and so far has not led me astray. Trip planning on CoPilot is a bit quirky, but ok once you do it a few times. I also like the RV option.

Google Maps CAN. WAZE downloads the upcoming route to some degree so you would have to be in an area with no cell signal for an extended period of time. If you are that far out in the boonies for that long you likely already know the roads you plan to travel so a small gap wouldn't make an difference anyway. The addition of live traffic information during the other 99.9 percent of your travels makes it all worthwhile.
