GPS software

CH
try the free download and see what Ozi can do for yourself: www.oziexplorer.com

up until a few months ago i used gpstm as well and found it to be very good (and it did what i needed) - and i think on this very forum i even advised people to save their money and not bother with ozi explorer

but then i looked at ozi explorer because of it's easy use with the natmap cd's

im now a convert
i've even bought it!!!

what else does it do?
it's moving map is a lot more stable and has a lot of nice to haves such as predefined zoom levels, auto mm start, much more configurable track logging options.

with the 3d plugin it can render full 3d maps (assuming you also feed it the topo info which isnt hard to get) this is bloody useful when you are planning

it works a snap with natmap cd's... this is much more fiddling with gpstm (it can be done but it's a lot more long and convoluted)

it's map calibration is much simpler than gpstm's

it has a damn good help file and tutorial that goes with it

no i dont work for oziexplorer, no i dont sell oziexplorer

cheers,
