GPS

[Tynan19]

What do you think? I was just checking out the member maps and I used my Gps to get my location down. Is there any way I could put my gps trails on to that map or is it a direct link to google? I quess I could just copy my Map source map and put it into my gallery. I have about a 100 miles mapped out on my trails.

hmmm.... i'll have to check into this and think about it some more... I may be able to find something we can use... not sure though... It would be cool to be able to share the GPS info though!!!

I am still trying to fiqure out how to share info and tracks. I know you would need all the waypoints and logs to get an area down. Something that will take time no doubt but maybe something to work on for next year.

Most of our folks use a program called OziExplorer, download the tracks to a map and then attach the tracks and waypoints.

It's not the best, but it works and others can DL the tracks to their GPS for use.

That is a good idea, I will have to look it over.

yeah that is pretty interesting.... might have to figure something else out though so users can put in their own points so it doesn't require too much administration!!!
