Notes on Installing and Viewing the Datasets

After installing the WORLDMAP software, the datasets must be unzipped and placed in the Africa3 sub-directory created within the WORLDMAP installation directory.

The Datasets can then be viewed by running WORLDMAP through the "Africa" Icon created within the WORLDMAP program group and opening the dataset file

For those unfamiliar with WORLDMAP, A tutorial is provided by running WORLDMAP though the "WORLDMAP IV" icon and selecting the "Continue with help" button.
