Without an internet connection it would basically be a no go. MM is just front end to the maps and directions you get from web sites (IE Google maps), it doesn't have the ability nor could it because of how it works to provide directions on its own. What could be done is that when you create directions, MM presents an option or check off button for example that lets you calculate the reverse route at the same time.

It depends on how the route is actually stored. If it's just a list of waypoints, reversing that shouldn't be too hard. But I don't actually know how the route is stored, so I can't say if it's possible - that's why I asked. Even a button to calculate the route both ways would help.

Another annoyance I've found is that if you tell it to download a route, it does that full time, and it's not possible to cancel it. I accidentally tapped in slightly the wrong place this morning, and it has been downloading a route for over an hour - a route I had already downloaded anyway. It just freezes, and won't do anything else until the download is complete, and it's not possible to cancel. Having it check for other input would be very useful.

A "cancel" feature would be nice if that is feasible. More than once I have started operations (downloading maps, loading POIs, etc.) and then had second thoughts when I saw how long it was going to take. Just terminating the program makes me uneasy that I might corrupt the database or the SD card . . .

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008
 
The database definitely gets corrupted. It's usually deleted. I can't even count the number of times I've had to reload everything because of this, and it's getting rather annoying. I'm just about at the point of giving up on the whole thing.

Well, it would be trivial for Maemo Mapper to just reverse the route points, but if I did that, the route itself (the green lines) would look the exact same anyway, all the waypoint descriptions would be wrong ("turn left" instead of "turn right"), and it would lead you onto the wrong way on one-way streets. The only added advantage over just following at the same route backward would be the ability to calculate distance to the next waypoint.

What I can do, though, is add a button in the "Download Route" dialog to quickly swap the source and destination. Then, you could just run the "Download Route" dialog twice to get both routes.

I guess I didn't expect the route download to take long enough to thread it off, but that's a poor assumption to make on a device that could be using a cell phone data plan's poor bandwidth. I'll try to add a cancel button.

"Take me home" or "Take me to ... (favorite POIs)" is a feature that would be nice to have in the "Download route" dialog.

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008
 
OK, I see the problem with the route reversal. That's why I asked, I didn't know how the route was stored. It wil navigate the route backwards now, but it gives turn directions going the other way. I came back the other night on about a 3-hour drive, hadn't been able to download a new route, and just followed the line. I got voice directions, but they all told me to go the other way. If it's that hard to reverse the route, it's probably not worth the trouble, but a quick and easy way to download and save the route both ways would work for me.

The download time isn't just on dial-up. I'm using my broadband connection at home, and routes are taking hours to download. I'm getting a couple or 3 zoom levels, and the screen just goes black and MM is totally unresponsive. Once it got the route after a couple of hours, but I've left it overnight, and longer, with no obvious difference - it's just sitting there with no indication that it's doing anything, and after 12 hours or so I decide it's time to give up. But then it crashes badly after a restart, and can't find the maps on the card, or sometimes even the card, even though everything is there. A quick status check every minute or so, and checking to see if it should cancel, would help immensely.

Wow, something is wrong there, even on very long routes its never taken me more then a few seconds to get the route and down loading a lot of maps at most, has taken a minute or two depending on how many maps I needed.

not sure which thread to post this in, so i go with this one.

found this site about speed traps across North American continent. Canada and Mexico included, to some extent. what kind of effort would it take to get this into a POI type database?

I don't see an easy way. It's not in any sort of database or easily capturable format. Way too much work for me to even attempt.

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008
 
Would it at all be possible to reverse-engineer the map tiles and route from either of the following Java MIDP apps:

- Amazegps.com
- Nav4All.com

Both of them provide accurate map tiles and routes for South Africa. Google does not. They work FANTASTICALLY well on my cellphone. Maemo mapper can't route me at all because Google doesn't have decent maps or any routing at all for South Africa :(

Or does anyone know any way to get routing for South Africa into Maemo mapper?

Thanks!

That url above contains no package to download. I searched the debian package repository for libgps16 and libgps and got no hits. If anyone has a suggestion that might save me a few hours of searching, I'd really appreciate it.

Also, it looks like the complete and total fix for this problem is spread out over several posts in this thread. I'd be happy to quote the posts all in one reply or compile the whole list of steps if someone could just tell me which post numbers are the relevant ones. There are fixes for os2008 on the n810 and n800 scattered through the thread as well adding even more confusion.

On a positive note, MM 2.3.1 seems to perform quite well. I'm not bothering with rotating, but the panning is great. I also really appreciate map db compaction.

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008
 
Thanks j800. I figured out what was wrong. Some packages have been updated, so I updated your steps:

Here's the process I followed:
*Install new libgps17
**Get http://packages.debian.org/sid/libgps17/armel/download
**mkdir tmp1
**dpkg --extract libgps17* tmp1
*Install new gpsd
**Get http://packages.debian.org/sid/gpsd/armel/download
**mkdir tmp2
**dpkg --extract gpsd_2* tmp2
*Copy new files into place
**cp tmp2/usr/sbin/gpsd /usr/sbin
**cp tmp1/usr/lib/* /usr/lib
*Tweak libs
**cd /usr/lib
**ln -s libdbus-1.so.2.0.0 libdbus-1.so.3

So then, as described in another post:

edit /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf using your mac address and BT reciever's name:
Quote:
#
# RFCOMM configuration file.
#

rfcomm0 {
# Automatically bind the device at startup
bind yes;

# Bluetooth address of the device
device 00:00:00:00:00:00;

# RFCOMM channel for the connection
channel 1;

# Description of the connection
comment "btG-7000";
}
power cycle to test the rfcomm's ability to bind on startup

at root prompt, "rfcomm" should report the receiver's data

in MM, open the settings dialog and choose the 'file path' option with "/dev/rfcomm0" as the path

then enable GPS.

Hello all

I have two question :

1) Can I change my POI database on the fly? Say, another application will add/remove some POI and m-mapper will update them automatically?

2) Is there a way to simulate a external GPS position so that m-mapper will automatically center on some place?

thanks to whoever can answer that! ;)

Thanks gnuite for great program :)

Is there any way to make map db with windows pc and if is how can I make working mm db?

t24
2) Press and hold the place you want to add and then select touch point -> set as a gps location or something (I have a finnish translation).

Sort of. You can make changes to the POI database without corrupting Maemo Mapper, but the image is not automatically refreshed, so you'll need to force a redraw in order to see visual POI changes. The easiest way to force a refresh is to zoom in or out.

Not sure exactly what you mean, but if you just want to center the view on a certain location, you can use the "Go to" sub-menu of the "View" menu.

If you really want to simulate GPS, you can use the command-line program "gpsfake", which is part of gpsd. This isn't trivial.

Or, if you want to "simulate" having a "current location" in Maemo Mapper, so that you can use things like routing to a location from your "current location," then you can tap-and-hold on a location on the screen and use the "Set as GPS Location" menu item, in the "Tap Point" sub-menu.

Thanks a lot ! I'll see what I can do with gpsfake, then .

Also, is there a way to change the "current location" that is stored in a file somewhere (when gps is off)? Then m-mapper will open up wherever I decide.

Maemo Mapper saves your current view location, regardless of what your GPS location is. If you want to tell Maemo Mapper the location on which it should center its view, there are two ways to do it.
  1. Set gconf settings prior to starting Maemo Mapper. The relevant gconf settings are as follows:
    • /apps/maemo/maemo-mapper/center_latitude
    • /apps/maemo/maemo-mapper/center_longitude
    • /apps/maemo/maemo-mapper/center_angle
    • /apps/maemo/maemo-mapper/zoom
  2. While Maemo Mapper is running, use Maemo Mapper's DBUS interface:
    • Service: com.gnuite.maemo_mapper
    • Path: /com/gnuite/maemo_mapper
    • Interface: com.gnuite.maemo_mapper
    • Method: set_view_center
    The arguments to the set_view_center method are all optional:
    1. gdouble new_lat;
    2. gdouble new_lon;
    3. gint new_zoom;
    4. gdouble new_viewing_angle;
    The details of Maemo Mapper's DBUS interface are in the dbus-ifc.h header file, available in the Subversion repository.

Mapper problem:

when I go into menu route/download the app freezes if it is the 2nd time I have done a download in the current session. Same if I "download route" from a screen tap.

running 2.3.1 on OS2008 on N800

update: a reboot seems to have fixed it.

Thanks for your great maemo mapper.
I have reflashed N 770 to OS2007HE version 4.2007.46-3
and tried hard (a week) to find any installable version of maemo-mapper
gpsd, kismet, libgps and failed.

Could you kindly give me valid web links to download and install
.deb packages of your maemo mapper, libgps, gpsd pakcages installable for Nokia 770 running OS2007HE (version as seen above).

Mayby the problem is I live off-wifi and indoor can download .deb packages to PC only.
But tried hard to download all dependencies, libraries first.
Unfortunately my Application manager still says, not installable package.

Now - when using escaped characters on MM's repostiory url - on server side I get request from MM which does not look like it should be. Query has lot of carbage that does not belong to configured query.

Log on server side (Apache), 10.0.0.64 is the MM client:

For example, values/parameters 0,000000 and 0x0,00001000008d2p-1022yers are something unexpected.

Is this problem of Maemo-Mapper or could this be some OS2008 library issue?

I'm using proj library, and it is able to do necessary transformations when using command line tool (cs2cs).

And SRS=900913 (or 600613 :)) , see http://crschmidt.net/blog/archives/2...ection-900913/
Sorry it took so long, but I finally looked into this. Unfortunately (or fortunately?), I didn't see anything wrong with the code, and I was able to use the two WMS URL Formats in the Maemo Mapper Repositories thread without any problems.

Are you sure you're setting up your repository's "URL Format" correctly? For a WMS-based URL Format to work, it must contain the "SERVICE=WMS" GET parameter somewhere in the URL Format, and it needs the following GET parameter to allow Maemo Mapper to "fill in" the appropriate coordinates: "BBOX=%.6f,%.6f,%.6f,%.6f". Look at the examples in the aforementioned Maemo Mapper Repositories thread for complete examples. (Note that you must copy/paste the linked URLs, since these forums abbreviate the links in the text themselves.)

After flashing my device again with new ITOS2008 image available - no problems anymore. I do not have any idea what was wrong. Now everything looks fine - expect one thing - It looks like MM does not cut pixels off which are outside 256x256 pixels like it did before 2.0 version. Is this true? Is tilesize allways 256X256 pixels?

Can someone please explain to me how to open map files that I have already downloaded, for viewing when I'm offline? Last night I was downloading topos from Terraserver. I can find some map files in Documents/Maps, all of which end in .db, but I can't seem to open any of them for viewing when offline.

I've only had my n800 (OS2008) for about a week. I'm completely new to linux. I'm enjoying the journey, but the learning curve is steep at times.

How did you download the maps? Maemo Mapper automatically views the maps in its display, if they are available in the .db file. You shouldn't be trying to manipulate the .db file manually (i.e. outside of Maemo Mapper). Maemo Mapper uses that file to store maps that it downloaded - use Maemo Mapper to view those maps.

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008
 
Thanks so much for the reply I have to agree with just about everyone else here in that MM is one of the best applications for the NIT. I can't wait to hook up GPS and take the maps out in the field (think rural central KY).

But I can't seem to get back to my maps after I go offline. Yes, I've tried going through MM, but I must be doing something wrong. Which feature do you access to find maps previously downloaded? How do navigate between locally stored maps.

Thanks again for the reply and the great app.

cmdowns 2008-03-21 17:48
Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008
 
Okay, it seems I have some access to my downloaded maps when I'm off line through the "maps" option from the main pull down menu I can select the servers, from which I accessed the maps and then view the most recent downloads.

I still think I'm missing something, because I can't seem to access all the maps. Or I can't find them all. For example I was viewing some Terraserver topos a few nights ago. Should I assume that the topos I was viewing are still on my NIT somewhere? Or are they auto erased after so many downloads?

Is there a simple way to save specific maps for later viewing offline? Do I need to mark them with POIs or something like that, in order to return to specific places/maps/views?

I'm sure it will become apparent eventually, but any help is always welcome.

Yes, they are still on your NIT somewhere, and no, they aren't auto-erased. They are stored in the .db files.

You can use the "View | Go to" menu to go to any place in the world - if you have downloaded maps for that part of the world before, then Maemo Mapper should show them to you. One thing to remember is that Maemo Mapper needs maps on a per-zoom-level basis, so if you've downloaded maps at zoom level 4, then they will not be visible if you are at a higher zoom level (like 6). Maemo Mapper will show zoom-4 maps at lower zoom levels (like 2), but the maps will appear pixellated.

You need to select the type maps you want to view. Menu, Maps, and then select the type maps. You can also select the Manage Repositories option and see where the maps are being stored, and change the storage location if you want. I keep my maps on an SD card, because I need the storage space, since there isn't enough room in the onboard memory.

I have some private maps (image files) that I would like to see in maemo-mapper... How can I create my own set of tiles? Is this possible? :confused:

Is it possible to use the tiles from this site in Maemo mapper:

http://www.streetmaps.co.za/

They've somehow disabled the right clicks so I can't get the URL's for the map tiles.

Here's a sample URL:

http://www.streetmaps.co.za/maptile/..._25.600000.png

Doesn't look to be compatible with Google's tile layout. So, without changes to Maemo Mapper, the answer to your question is "no."

Search these forums or the internet for "MapCruncher." It can help you, but it's not a trivial task.

Thanks a lot, I found what I needed :)

btw, why no maemo-mapper wiki? two many forum pages to go through each time I'm looking for some info ^^

Flite works on the N800. Just install it, tell MM to use it (settings) and it works. The volume is very low, but it does work.

Hi GNUITE
I need your help.
I waited for the maps converter for a long time and I've started to write it by myself. But I have the trouble in gdbm usage. If I put zome data to gdbm in my PC, I don't see anything in the N800 and I dont see anything in the map base created by MM...
Just a simple code:

#include <gdbm.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

GDBM_FILE *db;
datum dkey, dcon;

main()
{
db = gdbm_open("Google.db",0, GDBM_READER, 0644, NULL);
dkey=gdbm_firstkey(db);
while (dkey.dptr)
{
dcon=gdbm_fetch(db,dkey);
dkey=gdbm_nextkey(db,dkey);
}
gdbm_close(db);
}

This code get keys from the gdbm created by PC and found nothing in the gdbm from MM.
Way?

If it is the byte order cause, then we have no chance to make the PC converter!?

PC converter is usefull for some cases:
1. Building own maps
2. Downloading maps from pc
3. Converting maps from other software...
I think it's very very usefull.

UG
