iMappy

[Omizzay]

This looks like such a nice utility and would come in handy if you need to find your way around some city.

Just wondering if anyone here has actually used it, and if it's worth having on your gp32. Also, any sites provide map downloads for this?

 

[fx-man]

you can find some french maps here : http://edhel.fr.st
and some spanish maps here : http://www.gp32spain.com

and yes, imappy is useful sometimes

The only maps provided are the ones on the programmer's site. He does provide the specifics for making your own map, if you have the inclination.

i think i saw somewhere on a site downloads of other maps, like ones of london etc etc

Can you provide the link if you remember?

I used it a little, but not hugely - looks to be a *really* useful program, just not one I've needed yet; easier to carry a pocket map around

Iv been talking to tha author about this program and im in the mist of making some Australian maps first is the city of Melbourne transport rail system so trams and trains will be on there then im gonna do the other citys then the whole country

after that i will try making maps for specific states in australia

i have the melbourne maps done just trying to work out a naming code for the zones

Could you not make one of the london tube first instead? I think it would be beneficial to more people than australia.

I might make maps for chicago for whan I visit there in a few weeks. Don't know a good place to source the maps from though.

If you're really bored you could do any of the following cities, as I go on trips there all the time :

- London (City)
- Dubai, UAE
- Houston, Texas
- Beirut, Lebanon
- Cairo, Egypt
- Brussels, Belgium


Thanks.

Sydney, Australia (Train and Fairy lines)

Dubai, UAE is a must (as that's where i live )

Also, London city would be nice as well.

Thanks for your effort.

 

[surfratt]

Can you do San Diego, Los Angeles and New York City?

 

[NiN^_^NiN]

I'll try to do some more 2day but its very easy to make a map

all you have to do is get a good image then resize it to atleast 1000 x 1000 pixels or whatever the ratio is cant be over 1000 pixels in either height or width

then you just use the orignal image (the 1 over 1000 pixels) and cut it up into as many even squares as possible so if its like a square image cut it up into 4 even blocks of images then these images will be the zoomed images

that might sound confusing but it isnt the confusing part is working out the start X and Y axis and the end X and Y axis so a slim bored is put over the image in the software so when u go into this bored it loads up that bit of software

took me a whole week to work that out i did get help from RR4 the imappy author but i still didnt get it after a week of re reading his email i finally got it :rolleyes:
