Augmentra has recently posted an update to its ViewRanger - off-road - satnav application software for S60 smartphones. More importantly is the news that the update will now support the Nokia N95.
ViewRanger 2.3 contains several improvements, a number of which have been requested by customers.
The main changes in this release are......
- TripView The TripView displays a range of statistics about your current journey. You can configure which statistics are shown and can choose from several different screen layouts. The statistics include values such as distance, speed, average speed, time moving, estimated time of arrival, altitude and pace. You can save different combinations and layouts as profiles, and step through the profiles with the arrow keys.
- Track & Route Analysis For a track you can display graphs of speed, altitude, GPS altitude and distance against time. You can display these individually or superimposed. For a route you can display a graph of altitude against distance.
- International UTM Support The international UTM coordinate system is now supported. Tracks can be recorded and POIs can be created worldwide. This means you can use ViewRanger worldwide to record tracks, navigate to waypoints, create POI etc. We'll be announcing details of new international map availability soon.
- Buddy Beacon You can send your location to the ViewRanger server. If you give friends your details, they can see your location either using their own copy of ViewRanger or using a web page.
- GPS Tracks/GPX enhancement Amongst several changes is that tracks now store the GPS altitude, which can be exported to GPX files for moving your tracklogs into Google or PC-based map software.
And more... including Sunrise/Sunset times for your location in the Where Am I? panel.
Augmentra have posted the files so that they are available for download from their server.
