tordail Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I would like to have a software that can give me the coordinates on a map. I imagine it would work like this: you open an image file (the map), select two positions with known coordinates, and the north direction, or three positions, enter the respective values, and the software does the rest, from that it can tell you the coordinate of any given point. Is there such thing out there (preferably freeware)? If not, I'm thinking about writing it myself. Quote Link to comment
peter Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 GPSTrackmaker is a free program that lets you display background maps for your tracklogs/routes/waypoints. GARTrip and OziExplorer are two other programs with that feature. Quote Link to comment
tordail Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 (edited) Thanks to both of you. I think i will stick to GPSTrackmaker, because it's free . ExpertGPS is very good too, but I'm not going to pay 60$ just for this feature, and I don't need the other features that are provided. Edited March 3, 2006 by tordail Quote Link to comment
