RoadMap: car navigation system for Linux and UNIX (and PocketPC. Open Source GPS HOW TO. By Martyn C Davis, 14-MAY-2006 On a recent organised cycling ride in the Test Valley down in Hampshire (I'm in the UK), a friend showed me his new toy; a Garmin Edge 305 GPS-enabled bike computer.

Being a bit of a gadget head I'd played around with GPS on bike rides before, but the old Garmin GPS 12 I'd had seemed almost the weight and size of a brick, it had a serial interface, and the best use I ever really got out of it was to tell me what my coordinates were, which I could then check back onto an OS map. It also had a hard time finding a signal when surrounded by tall buildings or tree cover. I often find it quite boring riding around the same old familiar routes on my bike, but the alternative, which is figuring out a new route, then stopping every few miles to consult the sweaty OS map in my back pocket spoils the tempo of the ride. My ideal scenario would be to figure out a route beforehand, program it into a GPS, and let it lead me through the new ride. First Impressions <? Plans. TomTom MapShare – Clearing up the Confusion | GPS Lodge - GPSLod. TomTom announced that they are going to bring the new TomTom GO 720 to market with a program called MapShare.

This program, or rather system is a connection of GPS based features to other TomTom users so that users can collaborate to improve maps. Those improvements will only create a better experience if there are safeguards in place to keep malicious users from ruining your maps. I think that TomTom is taking a cautious approach to this and know that they have a check and verify system in place.
