How much cache is available for apple maps & how long do maps remain offline?

Vector maps are stored in iphone 5 so that they can be used offline. This is the only good feature of the ios6 maps but how long do the maps last offline?

Not true. Offline data access is based on the app, which can opt to save maps (vector or raster maps) for use offline. Here's a source of geo apps that work offline http://bad-elf.com/pages/compatible-apps Many are intended for offline use so you download maps for a select country or state/province and needn't worry about internet or mobile phone service.
As of iOS 7.1, Apple Maps stores only the last viewed area necessitating an active data connection (eg, wifi or cellular) to refresh geo-data as navigating. Google Maps can be used easily but the map data must be explictly saved while online.
