Hi every one and thank you to the group admin for all the hard work put into this group.

As this software has been around for years ,i am surprised at the limited number of maps available.

In the maps folder there is a good map of europe ,from that i was wondering who and where this map came from ?

Reason i am asking is that i would like an enlarged section of the UK and Ireland.

Can anyone help with this request Please ??

Kind Regards
Graeme

I don't know where the OEM maps provided from UIview came from, but there is a source for an unlimited number of static (non-scrolling non-zooming fixed view) maps for UIview for any part of the world.

"Universal Maps Downloader" is a shareware program that will automatically download and stitch bitmap tiles from Google Maps, Microsoft Bing Maps, Yahoo Maps, Open Street Maps and may other sites into seamless map images of virtually any size.? It allows you to download either street map, satellite views or relief/topo views from any of these sources. You only have to provide the lat/long coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of the area of interest.

I have generated hundreds of maps for numerous UIview installations with this application. Go to my web site for more details at:

HI

Given that it is very east to generate static maps for yourself, most people do this and don't bother to publish them anywhere as they are generally customized to personal taste.

There are many on-line sources of maps where you can grab a .jpg or whatever, such as Google maps, VirtualEarth, OpenstreetMap, etc

Hello,

When you like to make your own UIview maps, download TAHO v4.12 or higher. It makes the maps and "inf" file.... It is FREE.
Dimitri Junker is the programmer!!!
