How you get the geo-tweets display in your custom map - openlayers or
wms / tile server?

StepJuan is back on the road. For brief background, we helped Tomas
and the StepJuan crew last year in mapping his journey from Paguppud
Ilocos to Matnog, Sorsogon. We provided him one of the gpstogo units
to track the whole journey. All traces are in OSM:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/traces/tag/stepjuan
This year he is planning to do the Visayas leg. I'm looking for ideas
on how we can once again track the journey and show a webmap. Are
there any GPS tracker available wherein we can directly interface to
an OSM map? The StepJuan crew is looking for sponsorships, if you
have ideas, just post em here.
Thanks!

Hi firends,
StepJuan is walking to town again! This time me and my team will walk
through the 6 major islands of the Visayas Region, starting from Allen
Samar and will end in Boracay Island, Aklan. This adventure will
benefit children with cancer under the Philippine Children's Medical
Center (tawid kalusugan program for indigent patients). With this i
would like to ask for your help. Attached is a cover letter, the walk
IT and our media plan.
Hoping for your help and guidance.
God Bless.
Love and Peace,
~Tomas Leonor
