8 <para>Welcome to Maemo Mapper.</para>
10 Maemo Mapper is a geographical mapping tool that can be used to:
14 Download map data to your device's main memory or to an external
18 View that map data on the screen.
21 Navigate that map data by panning around the screen and zooming in
25 Display your position and other GPS information from a GPS
29 Store and display Point-of-Interest (POI) data.
32 Download directions between arbitrary points on the map.
35 Save or open track data or route data.
39 Use the <ref refid="help_maemomapper_" refdoc="index"/> to peruse the
40 various sections of this help document, or go to <ref
41 refid="help_maemomapper_getstarted" refdoc="Getting Started"/> to
42 get up and running quickly.
46 <topictitle>Getting Started</topictitle>
47 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_getstarted"/>
49 When you first start Maemo Mapper, you will be presented with the
50 <display_text>Settings</display_text> dialog box. Most of the
51 settings have reasonable defaults, but if you have a GPS receiver,
52 you should fill in the <display_text>Bluetooth</display_text> field
53 with the MAC address of your GPS receiver. If you don't know the
54 MAC, turn on your GPS receiver and push the
55 <display_text>Search</display_text> button. Maemo Mapper will
56 attempt to automatically discover the MAC address of your receiver.
57 For more information about the <display_text>Settings</display_text>
58 dialog box, see <ref refid="help_maemomapper_settings"
62 Alternatively, you can leave the
63 <display_text>Bluetooth</display_text> field blank, and Maemo Mapper
64 will attempt to automatically search for and use any bluetooth GPS
65 receivers that it can identify. This is particularly useful if you
66 tend to use multiple different GPS receivers. This feature is not
67 guaranteed to work on all Nokia devices or with all bluetooth GPS
71 If you are using Maemo Mapper on a device with an internal GPS
72 receiver, then you should probably use the "Bluetooth" receiver type
73 and leave the field empty.
76 When you are finished setting up Maemo Mapper to your preferences,
77 pressing the <display_text>Ok</display_text> button will lead you to
78 another dialog box: the <display_text>Manage
79 Repositories</display_text> dialog.
82 To get started quickly, press the
83 <display_text>Download...</display_text> button. Maemo Mapper will
84 download a set of pre-defined repository information for you to use.
85 If you use the pre-defined repositories, you can delete the
86 <display_text>Default</display_text> repository. For more
87 information about repositories and the <display_text>Manage
88 Repositories</display_text> dialog, see
89 <ref refid="help_maemomapper_repoman"
90 refdoc="Managing Repositories"/>.
93 Certain repositories (most notably, the commercial ones) may have
94 license agreements attached with their use. It may be illegal to
95 use a certain repository with Maemo Mapper or under certain
96 conditions. This includes the repositories downloaded via the
97 <display_text>Download...</display_text> button. If you are not
98 sure if you are legally allowed to use a particular repository, you
99 should delete it from your list of repositories. The authors of
100 Maemo Mapper cannot be held responsible for your use of a particular
104 Once you have your Repositories set up the way you like, press the
105 Ok button, and you will be presented with a blank screen, because
106 you have not yet actually downloaded any map data to your device.
107 To allow Maemo Mapper to automatically download map data as it
108 becomes needed on the display, enable the
109 <display_text>Auto-Download</display_text> checkbox in the
110 <display_text>Maps</display_text> menu.
113 If you have a working internet connection, Maemo Mapper will attempt
114 to download maps and display them on the screen automatically as
115 the downloads complete. You should see a map of the world. Be
116 careful when you enable Auto-Download, because it can quickly fill
117 your available disk space. See
118 <ref refid="help_maemomapper_mapman" refdoc="Managing Maps"/> for
119 details on how to manage disk space for a particular repository.
121 <heading>The Graphical User Interface</heading>
123 The main view of Maemo Mapper emphasizes simplicity. By default,
124 the map is all that is displayed. You current position (if you have
125 a GPS receiver) is indicated by a blue circle. The blue line
126 extending from the blue circle indicates your current heading and
127 speed. <i>Tracks</i> are red and represent where you have been.
128 <i>Routes</i> are green and represent where you want to go, i.e.
129 directions to a location.
132 The hardware buttons on your device provide quick access to common

170 to: Hide/Show Tracks and Routes
174 You can also pan around the map by tapping on the screen. Maemo
175 Mapper will center the display on where you tapped. If you had
176 <display_text>Auto-Center</display_text> enabled, tapping a location
177 to center on it will automatically disable that functionality.
180 From this point, you can use the menus to manage routes, tracks, and
181 map data; to change the view; to change settings; or to see detailed
182 GPS information (if you have a GPS receiver).
185 There is also a context-sensitive menu that appears on the map when
186 you tap and hold a location on the map. From that menu, you can
187 download directions, calculate distances, or add/modify
188 Point-of-Interest (POI) data.

197 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_mainmenu"/>
199 This help topic describes the functionality of each of the menu
200 items in Maemo Mapper.
202 <heading>Route</heading>
204 The <display_text>Route</display_text> menu is used to manipulate
205 the current <i>route</i>. A route in Maemo Mapper is defined as a
206 set of points and waypoints describing <i>where you would like to
207 go</i>, e.g. driving directions from 123 Main Street to 456 Elm
208 Street. It can include multiple segments. The current route is
209 empty until you open or download a route.
212 The <display_text>Route</display_text> menu has the following menu
217 <display_text>Open...</display_text> - Open a route from a GPX
218 file on the file system. The opened route is <i>appended</i> to
219 the current route, so you can string together different routes
220 together to create a trip with multiple destinations.
223 <display_text>Download...</display_text> - Download a route from
224 the internet. See <ref refid="help_maemomapper_downroute"
225 refdoc="Download Route"/> for more information.
228 <display_text>Save...</display_text> - Save the current route to a
229 GPX file on the file system.
232 <display_text>Show Distance to Next Waypoint</display_text> - Show
233 the distance left to be traveled (along the current route) until
237 <display_text>Show Distance to End of Route</display_text> - Show
238 the distance left to be traveled (along the current route) until
239 the end of the current route. The calculated distance includes
240 the distance between breaks in the route (i.e. between the end of
241 one route segment and the beginning of another route segment).
244 <display_text>Reset</display_text> - Reset Maemo Mapper's tracking
245 of your progress along the current route. Use this if Maemo
246 Mapper loses track of where you are with respect to the current
250 <display_text>Reset</display_text> - Clear the current route,
251 effectively replacing it with an empty route.
254 <heading>Track</heading>
256 The <display_text>Track</display_text> menu is used to manipulate
257 your current <i>track</i>. A track in Maemo Mapper is defined as
258 a set of points along which you have been traveling, i.e. <i>where
259 you have been</i>. It can include multiple segments. Tracks are
260 most useful if you have enabled a GPS receiver. The current track
261 is empty until you get at least one valid position point from your
262 GPS receiver, and it is appendeded to whenever you stray far enough
263 from the last track point.
266 The <display_text>Track</display_text> menu has the following menu
271 <display_text>Open...</display_text> - Open a track from a GPX
272 file on the file system. In contrast to route data, the opened
273 track is <i>prepended</i> to the current track, so if you are
274 trying to rebuild previous track data, you must open the tracks
275 backward in time (most recent tracks first).
278 <display_text>Save...</display_text> - Save the current track to a
279 GPX file on the file system.
282 <display_text>Insert Break</display_text> - Artificially insert a
283 break in your current track data. This simulates the loss and
284 re-acquisition of a GPS fix, and it can be used to track, for
285 example, refueling stops.
288 <display_text>Insert Mark</display_text> - Artificially insert a
289 mark with a description in your current track data. This can be
290 used to mark important landmarks.
293 <display_text>Show Distance from Last Break</display_text> - Show
294 the distance traveled (along the current track) since the last
298 <display_text>Show Distance from Beginning</display_text> - Show
299 the distance traveled (along the current track) since the
300 beginning of the track. The calculated distance includes the
301 distance between breaks in the track (i.e. between when a GPS fix
302 is lost and later re-acquired).
305 <display_text>Clear</display_text> - Clear the current track,
306 effectively replacing it with an empty track.
309 <heading>Maps</heading>
311 The <display_text>Maps</display_text> menu is used to control your
312 map repositories. This menu will be populated with a list of all of
313 your map repositories, from which you can select to switch to a
314 particular repository.
317 The <display_text>Maps</display_text> menu has the following menu
318 items in addition to the list of available repositories:
322 <display_text>Manage Maps...</display_text> - Download or delete
323 maps for the currently selected repository. For more details, see
324 <ref refid="help_maemomapper_mapman" refdoc="Managing Maps"/>.
327 <display_text>Manage Repositories...</display_text> - Configure
328 each of your available repositories, or add new ones. You can
329 also download a pre-defined set of repositories. For more
330 details, see <ref refid="help_maemomapper_repoman"
331 refdoc="Managing Repositories"/>.
334 <display_text>Auto-Download</display_text> - Toggle Maemo Mapper's
335 ability to automatically download maps as they are needed in order
336 to fill the screen with map data. This is useful for arbitrary
337 exploration of the world while connected to the internet, or if
338 you have a constant connection to the internet (i.e. via a
339 cellular data service).
342 <heading>View</heading>
344 The <display_text>View</display_text> menu allows you to customize
345 the view by showing or hiding certain features of the display.
348 The <display_text>View</display_text> menu has the following menu
353 <display_text>Zoom In</display_text> - Zoom in by one zoom level.
354 You can also use the <graphic
355 filename="2686KEY_zoom_in"/> button.
358 <display_text>Zoom Out</display_text> - Zoom out by one zoom
359 level. You can also use the <graphic
360 filename="2686KEY_zoom_out"/> button.
363 <display_text>Full Screen</display_text> - Toggle full-screen
364 mode. You can also use the <graphic
365 filename="2686KEY_full_screen"/> button to toggle
369 <display_text>Scale</display_text> - Toggle the display of the
373 <display_text>Route</display_text> - Toggle the display of routes.
376 <display_text>Track</display_text> - Toggle the display of tracks.
379 <display_text>Velocity Vector</display_text> - Toggle the display
380 of the velocity vector (the blue line extending from the blue
381 circle that represents your current location).
384 <display_text>POIs</display_text> - Toggle the display of POIs.
387 <display_text>POI Categories...</display_text> - Define POI
388 categories and which categories are displayed on the map. For
389 more details, see <ref refid="help_maemomapper_poicat" refdoc="POI
393 <heading>Auto-Center</heading>
395 The <display_text>Auto-Center</display_text> menu is used to control
396 whether or not Maemo Mapper should re-center the display as your
397 current location changes. The sensitivity of re-centering (how
398 close you get to the edge of the display before Maemo Mapper
399 re-centers the display) can be configured in the <ref
400 refid="help_maemomapper_settings" refdoc="Settings"/> Dialog.
403 There are three different modes of Auto-Center:
407 <display_text>Lat/Lon</display_text> - Keep your location centered
411 <display_text>Lead</display_text> - Depending on your speed, keep
412 a location in front of you centered on the screen. The faster you
413 are going, the more lead distance is used.
416 <display_text>None</display_text> - Do no re-center the display
420 <heading>Go to</heading>
422 The <display_text>Go to</display_text> menu is used to center the

432 Latitude and Longitude on which to center the display.
435 <display_text>GPS Position</display_text> - Center the display on
436 your current GPS position. This is the manual counter-part of
437 the <display_text>Auto-Center</display_text> functionality
441 <display_text>Next Waypoint</display_text> - Center the display on
442 the next waypoint in your route. By default, the next waypoint is
443 colored a slightly darker green than normal waypoints.
446 <display_text>Nearest POI</display_text> - Center the display on
447 the enabled POI nearest to the current view center.
450 <heading>GPS</heading>
452 The <display_text>GPS</display_text> menu is used to access features
453 of the GPS receiver, including textual information not displayed on
454 the map. It is also used to control your connection to the GPS
459 <display_text>Enable GPS</display_text> - Toggle communication
460 with a GPS receiver. You must have a GPS receiver set up in order
461 to use this menu item. When on, Maemo Mapper will constantly
462 search for the GPS receiver.
465 <display_text>Show Information</display_text> - Toggle display of
466 additional information provided by the GPS receiver. This
467 information will appear in the main display as a panel on the

508 <topictitle>Context Menu</topictitle>
509 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_cmenu"/>
511 By tapping and holding on the screen, you can access the context
512 menu to execute actions on either that location, the nearest route
513 waypoint, or the nearest POI.
516 The context menu is separated into two hierarchical levels. The
517 first level (<display_text>Location</display_text>,
518 <display_text>Waypoint</display_text>, or
519 <display_text>POI</display_text>) determines what kind of data on
520 which the operation applies.
522 <heading>Location</heading>
524 The <display_text>Location</display_text> submenu performs actions
525 on the exactly latitude and longitude on which the tap-and-hold
526 operation was performed. With that location, you can do the
531 <display_text>Show Lat/Lon</display_text> - Display the latitude
532 and longitude of the selected location, in the style chosen in

556 <display_text>Add Waypoint...</display_text> - Add a waypoint
557 to the current route, based on the selected location. You must
558 provide a description for the waypoint to be legitimate. By
559 specifying an empty description, however, you can create a break
560 in the route. The break will not be connected to the rest of the
561 route, so it can be used to start a new segment.
564 <display_text>Add POI...</display_text> - Add a POI to the POI
565 database, based on the selected location. If the category in
566 which you place the POI is disabled, it will not be visible on the

673 <topictitle>Managing Repositories</topictitle>
674 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_repoman"/>
676 In Maemo Mapper, map data is divided into specific units called
677 <i>repositories</i>. A repository is a source of map data, each of
678 which has its own way of visualizing the Earth. For example,
679 repositories based on street maps typically draw roads as lines and
680 buildings as areas, whereas repositories based on satellite data
681 draw the Earth as it would appear from space. There are also
682 "hybrid" repositories that overlay street map data on top of
683 satellite data, as well as topographical maps that show altitude
687 Each repository is made up of maps at 16 different zoom levels.
688 Zoom Level 0 is the highest resolution (closest to the Earth, i.e.
689 "zoomed in"), and Zoom Level 15 is the lowest resolution (furthest
690 from the Earth, i.e. "zoomed out"). Not all repositories are
691 available at all zoom levels, and some repositories may even produce
692 an error (which you can usually ignore) if you try to download maps
696 Once you have set up at least one repository, you can start
697 downloading maps from that repository to your device's file system.
698 For details on how to do this, see
699 <ref refid="help_maemomapper_mapman" refdoc="Managing Maps"/>.
702 You can set up any number of repositories in Maemo Mapper, but only
703 one can be active at any given time. The <display_text>Manage
704 Repositories</display_text> dialog is accessed via the
705 <display_text>Manage Repositories...</display_text> menu item of the
706 <display_text>Maps</display_text> menu, and it allows you to add,
707 edit, and remove repositories.
710 The <display_text>Manage Repositories...</display_text> has a combo
711 box that controls which repository is being viewed and edited. When
712 a repository is selected, the controls below it display the current
713 settings, which you can change:
717 <display_text>URL Format</display_text> - A specially formatted
718 string that looks like a URL, but it needs to have at least one
719 printf-style substitution strings (like %f or %s). Normally, you
720 must either get these URL formats from the internet
721 (www.internettablettalk.com is a good source), or you can use the
722 <display_text>Download...</display_text> button in the
723 Repositories dialog box to download a sample.
726 <display_text>Cache DB</display_text> - A database file on the file
727 system (either on the device's internal memory, or an external
728 memory card) in which maps are stored. Maps are kept here
729 indefinitely (until you delete them), so pick a location with a
730 lot of free space. You can use the
731 <display_text>Browse...</display_text> button to select the
732 database file with a graphical file system browser, or you can enter
733 the filename manually.
736 <display_text>Download Zoom Steps</display_text> - Controls which
737 zoom levels should be avoided when automatically downloading maps
738 (i.e. Auto-Download is enabled). The lowest setting (one bar)
739 means to download every zoom level. The highest setting (four
740 bars) causes Maemo Mapper to only download every fourth zoom level
744 <display_text>View Zoom Steps</display_text> - Similar to the
745 above-described <display_text>Download Zoom Steps</display_text>
746 option, except that it controls how Maemo Mapper behaves when
747 zooming. For example, at two bars, pressing
748 <graphic filename="2686KEY_zoom_in"/> causes Maemo Mapper to zoom
749 in two levels instead of just one. Setting this equal to
750 <display_text>Download Zoom Steps</display_text> ensures that you
751 see all maps at their native resolution.
754 <display_text>Double Pixels</display_text> - This forces Maemo
755 Mapper to avoid using the native resolution of any maps, instead
756 using pixel-doubling. This is useful if your repository's maps
757 contain small, hard-to-read text, and you want to double the size
758 of the images to make them more readable. This setting can also
759 affect the zoom levels that are downloaded when Auto-Download is
763 <display_text>Next-able</display_text> - This oddly-named option
764 determines whether or not the "Select Next Repository" action
765 (which can be mapped to any of the hardware keys) will be able to
766 select this repository. When unset, the "Select Next Repository"
767 action will simply skip over this repository.
770 <display_text>Downloadable Zooms</display_text> - This setting
771 governs the minimum and maximum zoom levels Maemo Mapper should
772 attempt to automatically download for this repository (when
773 Auto-Download is enabled). Some repositories support more zoom
774 levels than others, and supported zoom levels may even vary from
775 location to location.
779 In addition to the per-repository controls, there are a few buttons
780 that provide additional functionality:
784 <display_text>Rename...</display_text> - Renames the currently
788 <display_text>Delete...</display_text> - Deletes the currently
792 <display_text>New...</display_text> - Adds a new repository.
795 <display_text>Reset...</display_text> - Resets your repository
796 list to the factory default. This will remove all of your
797 repositories and replace them with the single default repository
798 that comes with Maemo Mapper.
801 <display_text>Download...</display_text> - Downloads information
802 about several preset repositories, and adds them to your
803 repository list. They will be appended to any existing
804 repositories you already have. They are not read-only - you may
805 edit them as you wish. This is a good way to get started.
809 Certain repositories (most notably, the commercial ones) may
810 have license agreements attached with their use. It may be
811 illegal to use a certain repository with Maemo Mapper or under
812 certain conditions. This includes the repositories downloaded
813 via the <display_text>Download...</display_text> button. If you
814 are not sure if you are legally allowed to use a particular
815 repository, you should delete it from your list of repositories.
816 The authors of Maemo Mapper cannot be held responsible for your
817 use of a particular repository.
821 <topictitle>Managing Maps</topictitle>
822 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_mapman"/>
824 In Maemo Mapper, <i>repositories</i> represent sources of map data,
825 and <i>maps</i> are just image files (e.g. PNG or JPEG) that are
826 drawn onto the screen. Once you have a repository set up (see
827 <ref refid="help_maemomapper_repoman"
828 refdoc="Managing Repositories"/>), you can download maps from a
829 repository into a Map Cache, which is just a database file on your
830 device's file system.
833 Maemo Mapper downloads maps from the current repository so that they
834 can be drawn onto the screen and later recalled from disk, instead
835 of downloading a map every time it is needed. This is called
836 <i>caching</i>, and it allows you to use Maemo Mapper even when you
837 are not connected to the internet.
840 Because Maemo Mapper downloads maps to your device's file system,
841 you must be aware of how much disk space your maps are taking up,
842 especially if you enable Auto-Download. If space is a concern, you
843 may also choose to go without a cache entirely. You can do this by
844 leaving the Map Cache DB field blank in the <display_text>Manage
845 Repositories</display_text> dialog. Note that this will cause Maemo
846 Mapper to download maps each time they are needed. If you are using
847 a cellular data plan that charges per kilobyte, you probably want to
848 use a cache. For more information about repositories and the
849 <display_text>Manage Repositories</display_text> dialog, see
850 <ref refid="help_maemomapper_repoman"
851 refdoc="Managing Repositories"/>.
854 Aside from the Auto-Download functionality, you can also download
855 maps manually using the <display_text>Manage Maps...</display_text>
856 menu item of the <display_text>Maps</display_text> menu. The
857 <display_text>Manage Maps</display_text> dialog allows you to
858 download, overwrite, or delete maps, either by area or along your
859 current route. It contains up to three tabs, all of which control
860 which and how many maps are downloaded.
862 <heading>Setup</heading>
864 The <display_text>Setup</display_text> tab controls what you what to
865 do. You can download maps (optionally overwriting
866 already-downloaded maps) from the current repository to your
867 device's file system, or you can delete maps (pertaining to the
868 current repository) from your device's file system. Both of these
869 operations can be done either over a rectangular area or along your
874 <display_text>Download Maps</display_text> - If selected, Maemo
875 Mapper will download maps from the current repository to your
876 device's file system, for the area you specify. By default, Maemo
877 Mapper only downloads the maps that you don't already have.
880 <display_text>Overwrite</display_text> - If selected, then Maemo
881 Mapper will download maps and overwrite any maps that you may have
885 <display_text>Delete Maps</display_text> - If selected, Maemo
886 Mapper will delete maps from your file system, for the area you
890 <display_text>By Area</display_text> - If selected, Maemo Mapper
891 will download or delete maps for a particular rectangular area of
892 the world, based on the latitude and longitude of an upper-left
893 and lower-right corner. See the <display_text>Area</display_text>
894 tab to specify the coordinates.
897 <display_text>Along Route</display_text> - If selected, Maemo
898 Mapper will download or delete maps along your current route.
899 This is useful if, for example, you are about to embark on a trip
900 and want to make sure that you have maps for all points along the
904 <display_text>Radius (tiles)</display_text> - If
905 <display_text>Along Route</display_text> is selected, then you can
906 specify the radius around your route for which maps will be
907 downloaded or deleted. For example, if you specify 4 (the
908 default), then Maemo Mapper will download all tiles that are
909 within 4 tiles of your route.
912 <heading>Zoom</heading>
914 The <display_text>Zoom</display_text> tab controls which zoom levels
915 at which maps are downloaded or deleted. The current zoom level is
916 selected by default, but you can enable or disable any zoom levels
919 <heading>Area</heading>
921 The <display_text>Area</display_text> tab, available if the
922 <display_text>By Area</display_text> option is selected in the
923 <display_text>Setup</display_text> tab, defines the rectangular area
924 of the world for which maps will be downloaded or deleted. If
925 applicable, the fields are pre-filled with your current and previous
926 view center coordinates. This allows you to graphically choose your
927 rectangle by first centering on one corner of the rectangle, then
928 centering on the opposite corner, by tapping the screen or by using
929 the <display_text>Lat/Lon</display_text> menu item of the
930 <display_text>Go to</display_text> menu.
934 <topictitle>Downloading Routes</topictitle>
935 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_downroute"/>
937 Route data can be loaded from GPX files, like the ones provided by
938 the GPX Driving Directions web service
939 (http://www.gnuite.com/cgi-bin/gpx.cgi). Or, route data can be
940 downloaded directly within Maemo Mapper using the
941 <display_text>Download Route</display_text> dialog.
944 Downloading routes requires an active connection to the internet,
945 but once a route is loaded into Maemo Mapper, the internet
946 connection is no longer needed (unless
947 <display_text>Auto-Update</display_text> is enabled). The route
948 download functionality in Maemo Mapper actually uses the
949 aforementioned GPX Driving Directions web service.
952 To download a route, you must specify an
953 <display_text>Origin</display_text> and a
954 <display_text>Destination</display_text>. The GPX Driving
955 Directions web service will return a route taking you from the
956 origin to the destination.
959 The <display_text>Download Route</display_text> dialog contains the
964 <display_text>Source URL</display_text> - The web service from
965 which driving directions are retrieved. The default is fine, and
966 it is usually left unchanged.
969 <display_text>Auto-Update</display_text> - This option, only
970 available if <display_text>Use GPS Location</display_text> is
971 enabled, will cause Maemo Mapper to automatically re-download a
972 new route if you stray from the route. Note that you must have a
973 continuous connection to the internet (i.e. cellular data service)
974 for Auto-Update to work.
977 <display_text>Use GPS Location</display_text> - If selected, then
978 the current GPS location will be used as the
979 <display_text>Origin</display_text>.
982 <display_text>Use End of Route</display_text> - If selected, then
983 the end of the route will be used as the
984 <display_text>Origin</display_text>. This is useful for stringing
985 together multiple route downloads into a single route.
988 <display_text>Origin</display_text> - If selected, then you must
989 enter your own origin. An origin can be specified in any format
990 understood by Google Maps. Some examples: "25, -43" (lat/lon),
991 "68712" (zip code), "San Francisco, CA", "123 Main St, 45112",
992 "5th and Main, 12151". In fact, if your route download fails with
993 a "Could not generate directions" error message, you can use
994 Google Maps to test your origin for accuracy.
997 <display_text>Destination</display_text> - The destination to
998 which the directions will lead. Like the
999 <display_text>Origin</display_text>, a destination can be
1000 specified in any format understood by Google Maps.
1005 <topictitle>Downloading POIs</topictitle>
1006 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_downpoi"/>
1008 Points of Interest (POIs) can be loaded from GPX files, like the
1009 ones provided by the GPX POI Search web service
1010 (http://www.gnuite.com/cgi-bin/poi.cgi). Or, POI data can be
1011 downloaded directly within Maemo Mapper using the
1012 <display_text>Download POIs</display_text> dialog.
1015 Downloading POIs requires an active connection to the internet,
1016 but once a POI is loaded into Maemo Mapper, the POI is accessible in
1017 Maemo Mapper regardless of whether or not you are connected to the
1018 internet. The POI download functionality in Maemo Mapper actually
1019 uses the aforementioned GPX POI Search web service.
1022 To search for POIs, you enter an <display_text>Origin</display_text>
1023 and a <display_text>Query</display_text>. The GPX POI Search web
1024 service will return up to 10 matching POIs in the vicinity of the
1025 origin. You can access more POIs from the same query by using the
1026 <display_text>Page</display_text> modifier.
1029 Once you have downloaded POIs, they are automatically added to your
1030 POI database, and you are presented with the <display_text>POI
1031 List</display_text> dialog to to review the POIs that were
1032 downloaded and added to your database. You must manually remove any
1033 POIs that you don't want in your database. For more information
1034 about the <display_text>POI List</display_text> dialog and
1035 deleting POIs, see <ref refid="help_maemomapper_poilist"
1036 refdoc="POI List"/>.
1039 The <display_text>Download POIs</display_text> dialog contains the
1044 <display_text>Source URL</display_text> - The web service from
1045 which POIs are retrieved. The default is fine, and it is usually
1049 <display_text>Use GPS Location</display_text> - If selected, then
1050 the current GPS location will be used as the
1051 <display_text>Origin</display_text>.
1054 <display_text>Use End of Route</display_text> - If selected, then
1055 the end of the route will be used as the
1056 <display_text>Origin</display_text>. This is useful for searching
1057 for points of interests (like hotels or restaurants) near your
1058 current destination.
1061 <display_text>Origin</display_text> - If selected, then you must
1062 enter your own origin. An origin can be specified in any format
1063 understood by Google Maps. Some examples: "25, -43" (lat/lon),
1064 "68712" (zip code), "San Francisco, CA", "123 Main St, 45112",
1065 "5th and Main, 12151". In fact, if your route download fails with
1066 a "Could not generate directions" error message, you can use
1067 Google Maps to test your origin for accuracy.
1070 <display_text>Category</display_text> - Specifies the default
1071 category in which all resulting POIs will be placed. You can
1072 always change the category later. If you have not yet entered a
1073 <display_text>Query</display_text> when you select a category,
1074 then the name of the category will be entered into the
1075 <display_text>Query</display_text> field for you. This allows you
1076 to, for example, quickly search for restaurants and put them in
1077 the Restaurant category.
1080 <display_text>Page</display_text> - Specifies the page of results
1081 that you want to retrieve. Think of it as the page number in a
1082 web search. Page 1 contains the first 10 results. Page 2
1083 contains results 10-19. And so on.
1086 <display_text>Query</display_text> - A free-form text query that
1087 describes the POIs for which you are searching. This can be
1088 anything from "food" to "hairstylist" to "museum." Note that the
1089 selected <display_text>Category</display_text> is not part of the
1090 query unless you explicitly include it in the
1091 <display_text>Query</display_text> field.
1096 <topictitle>Browsing POIs</topictitle>
1097 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_browsepoi"/>
1099 Once you have imported or downloaded POIs into your POI database,
1100 you can use the <display_text>Browse POIs</display_text> dialog to
1101 search for certain POIs in your database and to view those POIs in a
1105 To browse for POIs, you enter an <display_text>Origin</display_text>
1106 and a optional <display_text>Query</display_text>. Maemo Mapper
1107 will search the database for all POIs matching your query, and it
1108 will calculate the distance from each POI to your specified
1109 <display_text>Origin</display_text>. You may also filter your
1110 results by <display_text>Category</display_text>.
1113 Once your search is performed, you are taken to the
1114 <display_text>POI List</display_text> dialog, where you can view,
1115 edit, and delete any of the POIs that matched your query. For more
1116 information about the <display_text>POI List</display_text> dialog
1117 and editing POIs, see <ref refid="help_maemomapper_poilist"
1118 refdoc="POI List"/>.
1121 The <display_text>Browse POIs</display_text> dialog contains the
1126 <display_text>Use GPS Location</display_text> - If selected, then
1127 the current GPS location will be used as the
1128 <display_text>Origin</display_text>.
1131 <display_text>Use End of Route</display_text> - If selected, then
1132 the end of the route will be used as the
1133 <display_text>Origin</display_text>. This is useful for searching
1134 for points of interests (like hotels or restaurants) near your
1135 current destination.
1138 <display_text>Origin</display_text> - If selected, then you must
1139 enter your own origin. An origin can be specified in any format
1140 understood by Google Maps. Some examples: "25, -43" (lat/lon),
1141 "68712" (zip code), "San Francisco, CA", "123 Main St, 45112",
1142 "5th and Main, 12151". In fact, if your route download fails with
1143 a "Could not generate directions" error message, you can use
1144 Google Maps to test your origin for accuracy.
1147 <display_text>Category</display_text> - Filters the results based
1148 on the selected category.
1151 <display_text>Query</display_text> - An optional substring which
1152 must appear in either the label or description of a POI in order
1153 for the POI to match. Any spaces, commas, or other punctiation in
1154 the query must also be in the label or description. If left
1155 blank, then all POIs are matched.
1160 <topictitle>POI List</topictitle>
1161 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_poilist"/>
1163 The <display_text>POI List</display_text> dialog is a tabular
1164 display of POIs. With this dialog, you can go to a specific POI,
1165 edit POIs, change the categories of a set of POIs, delete POIs, and
1166 export POIs to the GPX file format.
1169 The main view of the <display_text>POI List</display_text> dialog is
1170 a table with five columns, all of which (except the checkbox) can be
1171 sorted by tapping on the appropriate header:
1175 <display_text>*</display_text> - This checkbox column contains a
1176 checkbox for each POI in the table. All of the POIs that are
1177 checked will be affected by operations in the
1178 <display_text>Checked POI Actions</display_text> dialog, described
1179 later. You can tap on the column header to enable or disable
1180 all of the checkboxes at once. Note that this checkbox has no
1181 effect on whether or not the POI is visible in the map.
1184 <display_text>Category</display_text> - The category in which the
1185 POI belongs. Categories can be edited, enabled, and disabled with
1186 the <display_text>POI Categories</display_text> dialog. For more
1187 information about the <display_text>POI Categories</display_text>
1188 dialog, see <ref refid="help_maemomapper_poicat"
1189 refdoc="POI Categories"/>
1192 <display_text>Dist.</display_text> - The distance from the Origin
1196 <display_text>Bear.</display_text> - The bearing (in degrees from
1197 true north) from the Origin to the given POI. A bearing of zero
1198 or 360 means that the POI is due north of the Origin. 90 means
1199 east; 180 means south; and 270 means west.
1202 <display_text>Label</display_text> - The label of the POI.
1206 Below the table are four buttons:
1210 <display_text>Go to</display_text> - Pans the map display to the
1211 currently selected POI (i.e. the currently highlighted row).
1212 Remember that you can tap and hold on the title bar of the dialog
1213 in order to see the map behind it.
1216 <display_text>Edit...</display_text> - Opens the
1217 <display_text>Edit POI</display_text> dialog for the currently
1218 selected POI (i.e. the currently highlighted row). You can also
1219 double-tap on a row in the table to open this dialog.
1222 <display_text>Checked POI Actions...</display_text> - Opens the
1223 <display_text>Checked POI Actions</display_text> dialog, which
1224 allows you to perform actions on the currently checked POIs in the
1225 table. From that dialog, you can set the categories of the
1226 checked POIs, delete the checked POIs, and/or export the checked

1239 POI Categories are a means by which you can organize your POIs for
1240 selective display. The <display_text>POI Categories</display_text>
1241 dialog is accessed from the <display_text>View</display_text> menu
1242 and allows you to enable/disable, add, edit, or delete categories.
1245 Each row in the table represents a category. There are three
1246 columns displayed for each category:
1250 <display_text>Enabled</display_text> - Controls whether or not
1251 POIs in this category are drawn on the map.
1254 <display_text>Label</display_text> - A short label to describe the
1255 category. This is the name that will be visible when viewing a
1259 <display_text>Description</display_text> - A longer description of
1260 the category. This description is not visible anywhere except in
1261 this dialog; it is only used to get an idea of how the category is
1266 Selecting a row in the table and pressing the
1267 <display_text>Edit</display_text> button will allow you to edit the
1268 above three attributes of a category, and to delete a category. You
1269 can also add a new category by using the
1270 <display_text>Add</display_text> button.
1273 A POI may only be associated with a single category at a time.
1277 <topictitle>Settings</topictitle>
1278 <context contextUID="help_maemomapper_settings"/>
1280 The <display_text>Settings</display_text> dialog (accessible from
1281 the main menu) provides access to a plethora of configurable options
1282 that control how Maemo Mapper appears and runs. In addition to the
1283 tabs, which are described below, there are also two buttons at the
1284 bottom of the diagram labeled <display_text>Hardware
1285 Keys...</display_text> and <display_text>Colors...</display_text>.
1288 The <display_text>Hardware Keys...</display_text> button brings up
1289 another dialog box, which allows you to customize the actions that
1290 each hardware key causes. For example, you can map the
1291 <graphic filename="2686KEY_esc"/> button to cycle through map
1292 repositories, giving you quick access to switching among them.
1295 The <display_text>Colors...</display_text> button allows you to
1296 customize the colors that are used for drawing on-map objects.
1298 <heading>GPS</heading>
1300 The <display_text>GPS</display_text> tab tells Maemo Mapper the
1301 source (if any) from which to retrieve GPS data. It is only
1302 applicable if you have access to a GPS source, such as a bluetooth
1303 GPS receiver or a GPSD server. Technically, Maemo Mapper uses GPSD
1304 for all of its GPS receiver communication, but you can instruct
1305 Maemo Mapper to use GPSD in one of three ways:
1309 <display_text>Bluetooth</display_text> - Select this option
1310 if you are using a bluetooth GPS receiver, and enter the
1311 MAC address in the field provided. If you don't know the MAC
1312 address, turn on your receiver and press the
1313 <display_text>Scan...</display_text> button to select it from a
1314 list of nearby bluetooth devices. Or, leave the field blank and
1315 Maemo Mapper will automatically try to use any bluetooth GPS
1316 receivers that it can identify. This
1317 option is also appropriate if you are running Maemo Mapper on a
1318 device with an internal GPS receiver, in which case you should
1319 leave the field blank.
1322 <display_text>File Path</display_text> - Select this option to use
1323 a device file on your file system, such as an RFCOMM device, and
1324 specify the pathname of the file in the appropriate field.
1327 <display_text>GPSD Host</display_text> - Select this option if you
1328 want to connect Maemo Mapper to any GPSD server (local or remote).
1329 Enter the hostname and port of the server in the fields provided.
1330 The default values (127.0.0.1 on port 2947) cause Maemo Mapper to
1331 use the local GPSD server, if available.
1334 <heading>Auto-Center</heading>
1336 The <display_text>Auto-Center</display_text> tab allows you to
1337 configure how Maemo Mapper automatically re-centers the display when
1338 either <display_text>Lat/Lon</display_text> or
1339 <display_text>Lead</display_text> is enabled from the
1340 <display_text>Auto-Center</display_text> menu. The Auto-Center
1341 feature is most useful in conjunction with a GPS receiver.
1345 <display_text>Lead Amount</display_text> - When Auto-Center is set
1346 to <display_text>Lead</display_text>, then Maemo Mapper will keep
1347 the center of the screen focused on an area in front of you. When
1348 driving, this allows you to view more of the road ahead of you.
1349 The distance in front of you on which the screen is centered is
1350 based on two variables: your current speed and the value of the
1351 <display_text>Lead Amount</display_text> option.
1354 <display_text>Fixed</display_text> - Controls whether or not your
1355 lead amount is affected by your speed. If checked, then your
1356 speed will not affect the lead amount.
1359 <display_text>Pan Sensitivity</display_text> - Controls how often
1360 Maemo Mapper re-centers the display, based on how close your
1361 position (or the position of your <i>lead</i>) gets to the edge of
1362 the screen. When set to a low value, Maemo Mapper will only
1363 re-center the screen when you are near the edge of the screen.
1364 When set to the maximum, Maemo Mapper will keep your position as
1365 close to the center as possible.
1368 <display_text>Min. Speed</display_text> - Controls how fast you
1369 must be moving in order for Auto-Center (and Auto-Rotate) to
1370 activate. For example, walkers may wish to set this threshold
1371 low, while drivers with inaccurate GPS receivers may wish to set
1372 this high (to avoid spurious auto-rotates when parked or waiting
1373 at a red light). The speed is specified in your chosen units.
1376 <display_text>Rotate Sensit.</display_text> - Controls how often
1377 Maemo Mapper rotates the display based on your heading, depending
1378 on how far your current rotation is from your heading rotation.
1381 <display_text>Points</display_text> - Controls which direction
1382 on the screen your heading points to when auto-rotating. The
1383 default is for your current heading to point up.
1386 <heading>Announce</heading>
1388 The <display_text>Announce</display_text> tab controls how and when
1389 Maemo Mapper displays or speaks waypoint information. When you
1390 approach a waypoint in your route (defined by the presence of a
1391 description in the GPX file), Maemo Mapper will pop up a text box
1392 with the contents of that description. When downloading routes from
1393 within Maemo Mapper, the text describes your next action, e.g. "Turn
1394 left at Main Street. Go 2.4 miles."
1397 As you approach a waypoint, Maemo Mapper will continue to display
1398 the description of that waypoint, so long as you are within the
1399 range defined by the <display_text>Advance Notice</display_text>
1400 option, or until you pass the waypoint. Because the amount of
1401 notice is dependent on your speed, it is possible to see the text,
1402 then slow down to a point where the notice disappears. This is
1403 possible, for example, if you are stopped at a red light. The text
1404 will reappear when you have picked up enough speed to again break
1405 the <display_text>Advance Notice</display_text> range.
1408 If you have installed <i>flite</i>, which is available in the same
1409 repository from which you downloaded Maemo Mapper, then Maemo Mapper
1410 can optionally also speak the same directions that appear on screen.
1411 Maemo Mapper will only speak the directions once, at the exact
1412 moment you first reach the distance from the waypoint defined by the
1413 <display_text>Advance Notice</display_text> option. The same
1414 directions are on-screen if you need to reference them.
1418 <display_text>Advance Notice</display_text> - Controls how much in
1419 advance Maemo Mapper begins to provide the waypoint description.
1420 The exact distance at which Maemo Mapper begins to announce a
1421 waypoint also depends on your speed, so the value of this option
1422 can be thought of more accurately in units of time. At the
1423 minimum value, Maemo Mapper gives you almost no notice. At the
1424 maximum value, Maemo Mapper gives you about two minutes of notice.
1425 Experiment to find your happy medium.
1428 <display_text>Enable Voice Synthesis</display_text> - If you have
1429 installed <i>flite</i>, this option will cause Maemo Mapper to
1430 speak the description of the next waypoint when you enter the
1431 range defined by the <display_text>Advance Notice</display_text>
1435 <heading>Misc.</heading>
1437 The <display_text>Misc.</display_text> and <display_text>Misc.
1438 2</display_text> tabs contain miscellaneous options.
1442 <display_text>Line Width</display_text> - Controls the thickness
1443 of all lines drawn on top of the map images. This includes your
1444 mark, all tracks and routes, and the default POI image.
1447 <display_text>Unblank Screen</display_text> - Controls when Maemo
1448 Mapper keeps the display on without user input. When set to
1449 <display_text>When Receiving Any GPS Data</display_text>, Maemo
1450 Mapper will keep the screen on whenever a GPS receiver is
1451 connected and producing data. When set to
1452 <display_text>Never</display_text>, Maemo Mapper will not attempt
1453 to keep the screen on, and the screen will go blank after a period
1454 of inactivity on the user's part. The default is
1455 <display_text>When Moving (Full Screen Only)</display_text>
1458 <display_text>Info Font Size</display_text> - Controls the font
1459 size for all information that is popped up to the user in the
1460 upper-right corner, including waypoint descriptions.
1463 <display_text>Units</display_text> - Controls the units in which
1464 distances and speeds are displayed in the user interface.
1467 <display_text>Degrees Format</display_text> - Controls how
1468 latitude and longitudes are displayed in the user interface.
1471 <display_text>Auto-Download Pre-cache</display_text> - Controls
1472 how much of the world surrounding the view Maemo Mapper should
1473 download when <display_text>Auto-Download</display_text> is
1474 enabled. When set to the minimum, Maemo Mapper will only download
1475 the maps that are required to draw the screen. As you pan around
1476 the world, you will see black areas where Maemo Mapper has not yet
1477 downloaded maps, until those maps are downloaded. If you increase
1478 the Pre-cache amount, the Maemo Mapper will download more of the
1479 surrounding areas, making it less likely that you ever actually
1480 see black areas. A general rule of thumb is to limit the
1481 Pre-cache based on the bandwidth of your internet connection, but
1482 the default setting (two bars) is usually sufficient for most
1486 <display_text>Speed Limit</display_text> - Enables notification
1487 when you have exceeded the given speed limit (specified in the
1488 units defined via the <display_text>Units</display_text> option).
1491 <display_text>Location</display_text> - Controls the location on
1492 the screen of the speed warning.
1495 <heading>POI</heading>
1497 The <display_text>POI</display_text> tab allows you to define your
1498 POI database and how POIs are drawn on the screen.
1502 <display_text>POI database</display_text> - The location on the
1503 file system where the POI database is located. The database must
1504 be in sqlite3 format. A default (empty) POI database is
1505 automatically created for you when you first run Maemo Mapper.
1508 <display_text>Show POI below zoom</display_text> - Defines the
1509 maximum zoom (furthest away from the Earth) at which POIs will be
1510 drawn. When zoomed out beyond this level, no POIs will be drawn.
