No. Up until very recently the Google Maps licensing was so restrictive that we couldn't use them at all. At that point they specifically excluded any sort of vehicle tracking. At some point within the last few months they changed their licensing drastically, making it possible that we might be able to use their maps in the future. Nobody has seriously looked into doing so yet. > Like the one in use at the DB0ANF APRS Server > > (Or other zoom able maps for Europe) You might investigate the Shapefile format maps that Henk de Groot has on his site, or look for WinAPRS/APRSdos/ or PocketAPRS maps that are out there. Xastir can use any of them. You might also prowl around on ESRI.com to see what they have for downloadable maps. They have another site linked there that they also provide which has a lot of downloadable Shapefiles. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.
