Re: [talk-au] no Maxspeed=* style sheet...

2010-07-06 Thread John Smith
David Dean wanted to see areas already tagged with maxspeed=* so I
created one based on the colours from the JOSM maxspeed style sheet:

http://www.dstoecker.eu/josm/maxspeed.xml

http://maps.bigtincan.com/?z=12&ll=-27.662,153.131&layer=BFFFTFFF

You may need to force a refresh, the JS script that defines the map
layers tends to be heavily cached by browsers...

[talk-au] BMW augmenting gps with inertial navigation

2010-07-06 Thread John Smith
"BMW has been working on augmenting GPS navigation for some time now,
and it took another big step forward in recent weeks with the
announcement of its Pathfinder "microNavigation" system. As the name
suggests, that would supplement your basic navigation system with maps
and directions for areas not covered by GPS -- a parking lot, for
instance -- and it could be continually updated on an as-needed basis,
with users able to download so-called microMaps for a specific area
before they go on a trip."
