Recently a long list of Android phones with builtin GPS receivers have hit the market at very attractive price points. At the same time a number of OSM applications have been released for them. An extensive list of mountainbiking and cycling routes have been contributed to OSM during the last couple of years.

 

On 26 March, we can show you how to use these phones for recording your tracks, calculating routes and a variety of other uses.

 

When: Saturday March 26th, 10am - 4pm. Come and go as you please.

Where: Karoo Cattle and Land, Irene Mall, Centurion

Contact: nroets@gmail.com or call 083-765-9503

 

RSVP by email. It's optional, but strongly recommended. Please state your estimated time of arrival.

Hello Lou,

 

It's not limited to Android. But at R1000 for the cheapest Android phone, it's cheap enough to buy one just for track logging and navigation.

 

Symbian / Nokia: I know a few people who got it working. If you have one, I could try to help you with it, but I have no first hand experience.

 

Garmin: Fairly easy on those map capable devices which are than just a SatNav.

 

Regards,

Nic
