Terra server maps from pc?

« on: November 17, 2005, 12:39:06 PM »

I use a program called terra fetcher to download all the maps i need so i can use usa photomaps without having to wait for each tile to download. Is there a way to take all of the terra server maps i already have and use them with my pocket pc and your software?

Thanks.

I will contact the developer of TerraFetcher to learn more.

It would not be completely instantaneous to convert it to BackCountry Navigator since our format is a database that is optimized for retrieval on a Pocket PC. It may be a quick process to convert, but we are not yet familiar with the format.

Sounds cool. If it is possible and not alot of work it would probably inspire the company I work for to use your software and purchase several licenses.

Thanks for the help.

Along the same lines I have found the virtual earth maps are very good on the pc you can get bird eye views of certian areas. This would be a great addition to your software if you could merge thier images with yours.
