There are a fairly limited number of mapping programs out there.

Some Electronic Maps are available in the public domain. Others have to be purchased for legal use.

Most will allow you to connect the GPS and see your location in real time.

Another option is to use a Mapping GPS.

MapToaster - scanned topographic maps and aerial photogrpahy software of New Zealand
TUMONZ - The Ultimate Map Of New Zealand, vector-based mapping software
