Memory-Map

With Memory-Map you can plan routes, print your own custom scale maps and download routes and waypoints from a PC to a GPS. When you've completed a route, you can upload a GPS tracklog to see the exact route taken! You can even see your route or track in 3D. Use Memory-Map on a Pocket PC and with a GPS connected you can have a "Moving Map" showing real time position, visual display bearings and your recorded track.

Memory-Map is compatible with the widest range of GPS units including the leading Garmin and Magellan brands as well as many others including Navman, Silva/Lowrance & Suunto. New advances within the software now even allow you to view GPS altitude and Heart rate profiles, as well as hill and speed profiles from your imported GPS track (where available).
