gpsVP works on virtually any Windows platform including mobile ones. It shows vector and raster maps, records and shows tracks, shows multiple navigation parameters, manages and shows waypoints. It aims to be as usable as possible.

January 23th 2011 - Version 0.4.22

CAUTION: NOT PROPERLY WORKING support for yandex.ru Map is present in this version (Yandex uses different projection and that's why tiles with the same coords are shifted against google ones). Everything else should work as fine as in the previous version.

Here is the change list since version 0.4.20:

• Geoid correction matrix: Updated values Atlantic & east America's. Matrix is now complete (cybermaus)
• Altitude correction into setup menu (cybermaus)
• Google Maps now use language identifier from GetLocaleInfo. So it respects regional settings in user's host. (vlysenkov)
• Slide right/left on a monitors row in map mode will switch to previous/next monitors row. (vlysenkov)
• Map configuration: Partial variables (Syntax %n,m) now also possible for %X, %Y, %TMSX, %TMSY (jerome077)
• New monitors to display the current zoom level of the raster map: ZOOM_00, ZOOM_01 and ZOOM_17 (jerome077)
• Save flash card health for those ones who does refresh cache. Raster->Maintenance->Refresh... routine now compares old and new contents for each downloaded file to prevent file rewrite with the same data. (vlysenkov)
• Enlarge screen buttons again (for easier finger operation) (vlysenkov)
• New function "Show available tiles" based on the same current view as for downloading tiles but which draw a new track with the outline of all available tiles in the view. (jerome077)
• Zipped subfolders in the cache: gpsvp can read tiles out of zipped folders in the cache (Not available on WM2003). Format should be 7z. For good performance please use the not solid and not compressed format (7z.exe a -t7z -mx0 -ms=off). It still saves lot of place and tranfering file from a PC to an SD card is much faster. (jerome077)
• Experimental feature to export a map (reassembling tiles using gdal) (jerome077)
• Other improvements
