Us How to Make Custom Routes in Offline Maps - GPS & Mapping - Products A few months ago, Google Maps started supporting offline maps. This means you can use Google Maps even without a data connection and still see yourself show up as that little blue dot on a map. You can know exactly where you are in relation to everything else on the map. You can save areas of about 35 square miles to your phone. It's a brilliant use of technology, but it might not fulfill all your offline direction needs. That doesn't mean you can't make it work for your special case, however, as long as you're willing to follow a few simple steps. A reader of this column named Phil saw my initial column and video about how to save Google Maps offline. Phil asked, "Is there a way to save a route and be able to use it later on a trip [with] the app giving directions?

Voyages-sncf Internet of Things Camera - Simple remote monitoring using a first-generation Eye-Fi wireless SD card and Adafruit Data Logging Shield for Arduino Introduction The Eye-Fi card is a tiny wireless memory card. It stores photos and fits inside a camera just like a regular SD card, but also has built-in WiFi transceiver that can upload images to your computer, smartphone or to various photo-sharing sites. We use one here when taking pictures for our tutorials — it’s a great timesaver, eliminating the extra USB transfer step that’s otherwise necessary. Can the Eye-Fi card work in an Arduino SD card adapter? What makes this combination way cooler than just a normal SD card or a USB cable to a computer is all the infrastructure provided by the Eye-Fi service — not just transferring images to your computer, but pushing them to your smartphone, photo-sharing sites like Flickr, issuing email or Twitter notifications, etc. Parts and Software Lists Parts used in this project include: Links to software: Make It!

Organization for Transformative Works Parking, Flights & Information Europe by Motorhome Introduction: Between mid-March and mid-December 2010 we traveled roughly 14,000 miles by motorhome through portions of twelve countries in western Europe. This Journal is intended to summarize our experiences and the knowledge we’ve gained for the benefit of other motorhome travelers. In 2011, between late February and the end of November, we traveled across southern Europe to the Balkan states and Bulgaria. In 2012, we arrived around April 1st and departed mid-December. General Summary: In order to minimize repetition, many items can be covered in a summary of motorhome travel considerations generally applicable throughout european countries. In 2010 we traveled in Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Germany, Switzerland, Spain and Portugal as well as the four entities of the United Kingdom, England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland; plus the Republic of Ireland.
