"Mobile Atlas Creator (formerly known as TrekBuddy Atlas Creator) is an open source (GPL) program which creates offline atlases for GPS handhelds and cell phone applications like TrekBuddy, AndNav and other Android and WindowsCE based applications. For the full list of supported applications please see the features section. Additionally individual maps can be exported as one large PNG image with calibration MAP file for OziExplorer. As source for an offline atlas Mobile Atlas Creator can use a large number of different online maps such as OpenStreetMap, Google Maps, Microsoft/Bing Maps, Yahoo Maps and many more online map providers.

There was a post on slashdot http://ask.slashdot.org/story/10/08/...a-Handheld-GPS

Wonder if it could be useful for the n8x0

one can do this with maemo mapper already, iirc. The only thing i think this tool brings would be the extra number of map sources and the ability to mark a area to download by dragging a box.

still, after checking the program out i am impressed by its selection of sources. Especially that it has topomaps from the norwegian national surveyor. Not sure what would be simplest tho, getting it to support maemo mapper, or get maemo mapper to support one of the already provided formats.

btw, i wonder if it works with navit...
