Perhaps a better way would be to build an algorythm that 'learned' the
terrain you travel through by plotting the points the calc recieves. GPS
includes lattitude, longitude /and/ altitude so a full topographical map
would be possible to draw dynamicly.
I was interested in building a GPS reciever for my computer a year ago
but wasn't able to find any resources. Where can I find technical info
on decoding GPS signals on the internet, anyone know?
