computerised map

Hi all

This is a question from my dear husband...

He is wanting a to plot our travels in great detail onto a map and then squish it down the size of a computer screen.

We can get the maps off Googlemaps and plot the trip using Paint, but can't figure a way to save more than one map.

I hope this makes sense. Can anyone suggest someone we could talk to about this, or a website we could try?

Thank you!

Try using the Google Earth program. You can creat every single plot as a "track" and then print them as you like. The great thing is that you can zoom right down which makes it much easier to trace the route. You can also email the kmz (trasck) files to others who can then view them in GE also.

Cheers Mick

you can also do it in Google Maps but you need to be looged in (which involves creating a free account and maybe a gmail email address)
