vitya Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hello fellow geocachers/hikers in Greece! I am wondering if there is already a site where one can upload his/her tracklogs and can download tracklogs created/uploaded by others. If such a site does not exist (for Greece anyway), I would like to put one together. Of course the new site would have many other features as well, mainly Greece specific. This would be a good way of mapping the whole country (I am mostly talking about tourist tracks, not roads for cars). Any thoughts on this subject is much appreciated. vitya ps: Please post your replies in English as - although I have been living here for almost 2 years - I still can't understand everything in Greek - It's all Greek to me!

vitya Posted September 22, 2006 Author Share Posted September 22, 2006 I know a topic where you can up or down load tracks in Greece but it is only for mountain pathsthe topic is www.hellaspath.gr this is very interesting because i create my owen maps and it will very helpfull for me i allready make the 30% of my home town Thessaloniki for garmin in .map format I checked out the site, and while I like its idea, I find it very poor in content, organization, and options. What I have in mind is similar to it, but extended to the following: -tracks, wapoints, routes downloadable in various formats -tracks etc. are organized by and searchable by various properties -descriptions/photographs for tracks etc. -when multiple people upload similar tracks, a "master" track is formed -visitors could rate the tracks etc. -tracks etc. could be seen visually on a map. -tracks etc. are not for only hiking, but waterways (rafting, boat trips), motoscross tours, even flight trips (for balloons, RC flights etc.) -and a lot more -and of course, it would be priarily for Greece. At the moment I am looking for ideas. And a bit later, I might start implementing it if I see there is enough interest/demand for it. vitya Quote Link to comment
