Importing Maps
To import your favourite map into GPSDash, initially three steps have to be taken:
1. Copy your favourite map in raster format (PNG, GIF, JPEG, BMP) to your PocketPC.
2. In the GPSDash Mapview load the map by choosing the "Add New Map..." Command from the Context Menu (tap&hold)
3. Define at least two reference points.
After you have defined your Reference Points, you may enable the map relative position tracking by selecting the "Track Position" command from the context menu.
Defining Reference-Points
Reference-Points are necessary to map the geographical coordinates - provided by your gps receiver - to karthesian or UTM coordinates which describe a position on a raster-map. To define a Reference-Point for your already loaded map do the following:
1. Make sure you are connected to your GPS receiver (good reception is important).
2. Move the Position Marker to your current position on the map by tapping with your stylus.
3. Select the "References..." command from the context menu (tap&hold).
4. Enter a name for your Reference Point (optional), tap the "Add" button and save it with "ok".
