GPS, POI's and navigation software
hi,
i bought one of these and fitted it myself http://www.gpsinforad.co.uk/default.asp and it works brilliant. there is a feature, where every min, it will save my co-ordinates so i can see where my bike has been on a map, currently, with the software provided, i can only view the beginning of the journey, where i first turn it off, and the last postion, where i turn it off. i can however save the journey as a .csv file, if i do this, i can open it in notepad and it will give me a list of things. Code:
51.57204;0.18023;10/30/2006 5:45:51 PM;14 51.56946;0.18326;10/30/2006 5:46:52 PM;62 51.56669;0.18592;10/30/2006 5:47:53 PM;1 51.56525;0.18983;10/30/2006 5:48:54 PM;8 51.56210;0.18892;10/30/2006 5:49:55 PM;19 51.55679;0.18897;10/30/2006 5:50:56 PM;39 51.55071;0.18964;10/30/2006 5:51:57 PM;51 51.54475;0.19177;10/30/2006 5:52:58 PM;61 51.53783;0.18489;10/30/2006 5:53:59 PM;46 51.53402;0.18129;10/30/2006 5:55:00 PM;30 51.53011;0.18816;10/30/2006 5:56:01 PM;41 51.53417;0.19244;10/30/2006 5:57:02 PM;39 51.53704;0.19707;10/30/2006 5:58:03 PM;48 51.54318;0.19474;10/30/2006 5:59:04 PM;49 51.54799;0.19933;10/30/2006 6:00:05 PM;12 51.55082;0.19804;10/30/2006 6:01:06 PM;36 trouble is, me not knowing anything about navigation software, dont have a clue what im doing. anyone know of any freeware navigation software i can use that will display my journey on a map at all ? or any software that isnt free that will do the same job? also, this only detects speed cameras from a GPS database, i can however program in POI's into it, and the light will flash orange as a approach them, rather than the red for speed camera. what i would like to do, is add a database of police speed check and saftey camera partnership hotspots to give me an early warning. anyone know of a site that will give me this information. i have done it once before on a satnav system, i got a poi folder from pocketGPSworld i think for free, but now they are charging for the download. anyone know of any other sites that may help ? cheers brilliant bit of kit you know, really well made, tough and durable, and packaged very well. |
