Sue & Paul’s Gmap Pedometer

Published in Maps, Travel  |  6 Comments


Sue & Paul’s gMapPedometer is a pretty simple, but slick use of the GoogleMaps API to produce what they call a pedometer. You can ‘Start Recording’, double-click points on the map and the route is built-up, points added and plotted out and the total distance calculated.

This kind of interface for building a route, perhaps adding some notes, pictures, movie, audio, etc. and then saving the “permalink” for friends and such is great. An easy way to build up a guided tour.

    This link is awesome. I was just coming here to tell you about it, but you seem to be on top of things.

    Just a pointer to TrailRunner. It’s also a route planning software.

    TrailRunner will import GPX-tracklogs from GPS receivers and then plot the data on a map. Within the map, TrailRunner can then calculate routes for a given distance.

    You can even export directions as small NanoMaps to your iPod nano, journalize in a diary you can publish as a weblog and improve your performance with the build in exercise plan.

    TrailRunner runs on Mac OS X and is free!

    This is the coolest site. Thank you. I do have a question. I’m able to route anywhere in the U.S. but cannot connect to any outside countries. I tried Vatican City and others but to no avail.
