| Smartphones as GPS tracker |
|
An Android phone can, with the free program "My Tracks" of Google (http://code.google.com/p/mytracks/), simply be used as a GPS tracker. There are many similar programs available, but it is clear and simple. And the name fits well for this site. For iPhone, there are similar programs.
The handy thing of using your smartphone as GPS tracker is that you are don't need a separate GarminGPS. And many people have such a smartphone thing. You don't see the actual speed unless you mount your phone to your handlebar,
My Tracks is pretty simple. Just press START / STOP recording on departure and arrival. Write to a GPX file and upload to mytracks.me.
