Tracks4Australia provides an alternative
free map set
that can be used both with MapSource on a PC or
uploaded to a map capable Garmin GPS unit.
The aim is to provide a high quality map set for all
of Australia with a focus on non metropolitan areas.
The set will NOT be adequate for marine or
aeronautical navigation.
The
Tracks4Australia group seeks contributions of track logs &
waypoints from both members & non-members.
Members will all be given the appropriate email
address when they join.
Non members cannot post messages to this group but
their track log contributions are absolutely
welcome. Non members should email track logs to
no_spam_4_me@iinet.net.au
Non-members who wish to join should follow the Yahoo
process - please include at least your home city &
GPS model in the comments, your real name is nice
but not compulsory.
Tracks4Australia will never share members personal
information, please review the options when you
create your Yahoo identity.
We cannot use track logs that have been traced from
any map, regardless of whether they are in the
public domain or not.
