you can also have a look at something like www.openpaths.cc they have an
api you can plug into but you need to post your gps data to them
doesn't quite fit the offline part but to start it takes a lot of the
heavy lifting for you
alternatively you could save your gps co-ordinates to an xml file and
send that via email, which you can then push up to google maps
again, doesn't quite fit the offline part, but i'm not sure how you
would visually see your map if it's headless unless if it's on another
computer
