TrackyPro - If you have taken your auto navigation system into the woods you probably realized that it becomes more of a paper weight than a navigation device. Without roads most cannot function. That is why you may need off-road navigation software.
Get insight in your current situation by means of a large compass, a speed, altitude, slope and even a G-force meter. Edit your favorite Points Of Interest (POIs). Navigate to your POIs or along a track assisted by spoken voice! See the track you are traveling, you travelled before, and/or downloaded from internet (in GPX format). Analyze tracks or export them to MS Excel. Convert any location to the many supported Grids, Zones, and/or Datums for cartographic purposes.
Tracky supports online GoogleMaps so that you have full and free access to satellite, street, and hybrid maps, everywhere you go! Maps will be dynamically downloaded if your PocketPC has internet access. You can also cache these maps offline at home while still enjoying them when you are out. You can also import and calibrate maps of your own.
You can follow your buddies on your PDA and chat with them. You can also follow them on your PC, just check out TrackMe to see who is online right now!
Tracky supports address-to-address navigation. It is not as fancy as in TomTom or Garmin, but it works, while you can still enjoy the many features these systems lack! You have access to various online databases to search for nearby businesses, geo-caches, Wikipedia entries, photos, and weather stations.

(1) download, record, share, and train tracks

Tracky runs on any PDA or mobile phone with Microsoft® PocketPC 2003 or higher, e.g. Windows Mobile 5 or 6. It requires an NMEA-0183 compatible GPS receiver: wired, BlueTooth, or built-in. It supports several de facto standards for tracks, POIs, and maps. You can share these with your friends, down- and upload them to many existing internet sites, and profit from the wide availability of tools for editing and analysis.
