Title: Zumo & Google Maps Post by: bobwirka on February 26, 2008, 12:58:43 am The Zumo 550 arrived last week, and I'm very pleased.
Don't know if anyone has seen this: http://www.elsewhere.org/journal/gmaptogpx/ It's a piece of JavaScript that captures a route generated in Google Maps and produces a GPX listing. You cut/paste the data into a GPX document and open it with MapSource. You may get multiple routes; look at the GPX file and you'll see where you need to delete tags to keep one route. It's a pretty quick way to get a map using Google's "drag the route" function. I want to get some good routes ready for spring... Looks like we may have dodged a bullet here tonight. There's not much snow at all. Title: Re: Zumo & Google Maps Post by: TriggerT on February 26, 2008, 08:44:03 am Thanks for the link. I'm just south of you, Rockford, and the snow was really varied. Anywhere from 1 to 12 inches depending on where you were in town.
Is it June yet? Title: Re: Zumo & Google Maps Post by: HipGnosis on February 26, 2008, 09:02:44 am That is what I and a LOT of folks have been waiting and searching for!!
Thanks for the link! Now I only need a way to turn a track into a gpx.

View any ride or route and push the button that say's save as GPX. It took me a while of polking around on the site to get familiar with it but once you do it's sweet. RRA |
