Hi, Ive written some software for Windows Mobile to make on-the-road contribution to OSM possible. If any Windows Mobile 6 owning people would like to beta-test it, ive stuck it up at
http://release.georgestyles.co.uk/GeorgeMap ive stuck some screenshots here http://release.georgestyles.co.uk/GeorgeMap/ScreenShots/Default.aspx Its only currently useful for filling in missing names from streets which already exist (without a name tag). It cannot yet create / edit the actual nodes that make a street (apart from splitting an existing street). At the moment its simply freeware. I want to GPL it, but need to open a sourceforge account etc etc, and havent had time yet... Features are * GPS Support (using WM GPS driver) * Display OSM tiles from MapNik, OSMARender, CycleMap or CloudMade * Query OSM for streets and nodes in the visible area * Displays unnamed streets in red, named ones in green (and ones named by you in lighter green so you can see the difference you are making) * Can query GPS points (although until I add node editing, that is kind of useless) * Program can check for newer versions and automatically install them (if you ask it to...) * Multi-threaded - tiles /data are downloaded in the background, as are uploads of changes. * Ability to name unnamed streets (or change the name of existing ones) * Offline edit model - edits are held in the phone until you choose to sync them. This is needed because mobile coverage is not 100% * Split / join ways (join dosent quite always work properly yet) * Current GPS trail overlaid on map so you can see where you have been (plan to upload trails to OSM in near future) Should I email this to the dev list as well, since ive done some dev??? g _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
