"Track@Way is an Open-Source (released under GPLv3 license) application for mobile phones which lets you track your way using the embedded GPS in your mobile phone (or, where supported by the phone, an external GPS antenna).

Many use Track@Way (spelled "track-a-way") during their sport activities, some uses it during their travel to geoference their photos, some use Track@Way just for fun! Myself, i use Track@Way for my sport activities and leisure vacation.

Suppose, for example, that you go out for trekking in the mountains: Track@Way in its most basic usage can record where you have been so that you can review later your path, project it on a map (check gpsvisualizer.com for a free converter tool for Google Maps and Google Earth) or even reuse it as a guide for your next trekking in the same area!"

Usage examples:
- import your old oziexplorer maps (ozfx2/ozfx3)
- load one jpg/png from your scanner and geo reference it with the internal calibrator tool
- load your offline piece of map and view that placed above the OSM Cycle Map to complete the missing areas.
- create your tracks, view statistics and export to gpx or upload to gobreadcrumbs.com
- navigate using a saved track
- while offline, search a place or a city on your map using one GNS database (development).
- the application is available for symbian, maemo and meego

Attached you can find the file extra_map_sources.tar.gz to add some online map source (gmaps, terrain, hybrid, sat, cloudmade and wanderreitkarte...)

Feel free to contact the author (Willy) for requests, bugs or suggestions.
There is also a "supporter version" with a few more features and an bigger number of maps loadable at the same time.
You can request this version to the author giving him a little donation.

Maemo version contains has also a little addon to run an external script to jump to a location on the map.
With one click near the coordinates in the lower part of the screen, a new window appears with the "Custom search" button.
Pressing it, you could enter a string to search that will be passed as argument to the script "/opt/trackaway/custom.sh"
In this way:
/opt/trackaway/custom.sh" $CURRENT_LAT $CURRENT_LONG $STRING

The result of that script is expected to be in the form of:

LAT
LONG
DESCRIPTION

(separated by \n)

After this, the map will jump to that place.
I have also prepared i script that using an sqlite db filled of city/coordinates returns a list of places ordered by distance.
A good source for this kind of data is GNS:

A great app by a great developer!! Many thanks Willy!!

I love this app, can't understand why it's so underated. IMHO it's way better than Sports Tracker, at least for Harmattan.

New version in first post!

The v 2.0 does not like the version of /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 installed, stating it needs 'version 'CXXABI_ARM_1.3.3'.

Is such available? Must be if it works for you

thanks for this,

Works for me (though had to run it from shell, menu shortcut didn't work).
Newer libstdc++: http://maemo.org/packages/package_in.../4.6.1-maemo6/
You should definitely do a backup first. I've got 4.6.1-maemo4 installed it seems.

Doh! It is so long since I looked at updating etc that I failed to recognise FapMan's upgradeable icon (not very different to the installed icon). So thank you....

Off to play......

Exellent thingy better then viewranger

Well done! A good piece of software.

I installed the Free version on my N900: the software has been optified but the /usr/bin/ link is missing! Isn't it? Am I the only one with this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, this great app is also available for Harmattan but there is no mention in the first post, @xes can you update? thx

Nope, everyone will have an icon that does not work due to the missing link. I believe it was noted earlier.
