TrackMe


This tool retrieves GPS positions from a GPS device attached to a PDA. That information is later used for displaying tracks with Google Earth or Google Maps.

The program uses a server where your data is uploaded. If you don't have an Internet connection or you prefer not to use it, you can store your data locally on your PDA and upload it later when an Internet connection is available or you use ActiveSync. You can use my server (free of charge) for storing your data. TrackMe is already configured to use this server by default.
