qct maps of Portuguese Pyrenees.

[wobbly]

I am now running AlpineQuest for navigation.

I have a trip to the portugal / spanish pyrenees in planning, and am trying to get hold of qct type mapping files.

Does anyone have any? If you have them in a different file type please let me know and I can check compatability.

Cheers

Pete

I thought QCT was the memory map format?

this programme
http://www.fileheap.com/software-mobile-atlas-creator-1-9-5-rev-download-122060.html

it can amongst many formats, export AlpineQuestMap (AQM) format

and these maps
OpenStreetMap 4umaps.eu (Europe)

seem to be pretty good

Thanks. I will have a look at how difficult it is, im not over-encumbered with technical ability....

QCT was the format memory map used initially, but because its unencrypted they changed, cos people werent buying them. Its not their format though, just the one they chose to use.

The best maps are the 1:25000 military ones, but I would need loads of them.

Will check out the opensource ones, but im using tracks in sparsely occupied areas, so maybe not the volume of users updating the maps.

Cheers

its not too difficult to use... but.. although I am a Geologist, i do work in technical sales in an oil & gas software company these days... so have some degree of technical ability
so it might not be easy for everyone to figure out
