WiMap + Topo USA?

Sorry in advance if this has been posted before, I looked but couldn't find anything.

Does anybody know if the files that WiMap makes are compatible with Topo USA?

The documentaion for WiMap makes no mention of topo usa:

WiMap is a tool to convert your NetStumbler logs into the "latlon" or "draw object" file format recognized by certain versions of Delorme Street Atlas, and/or into the "PCX5" format that Garmin's MapSource system will import.
I take it that Street Atlas requires the same syntax for importing pinpoints as Topo USA.

I have imported the WiMap files into Topo4 but I don't remember if I had to edit them first. I will look see this evening when I get home from work.

FWIW, I converted using WiMap to "old SA" and "new SA" formats both, and their data imported to TopoUSA did plot markers & text info from the import. But it also drew route paths between all points [as opposed to simply putting the points/text on the map as in SA8]. Interesting.

Thanks! I'd really appreciate that.

It'd be good to know before I go out and buy Topo USA.

Thanks for all the replies people!
