Subject: GPS, scanned map


Hi Stephan!
To my opinion, there is no possibility to use your scanned non-mercator map
for your GPS. For doing so you would have to transform the whole map, this
means you have to do a geometric operation ("normalization") to *all* the
points of your map, quite a job. The best would be to used another map,
this time in mercator-projection.
So long
Tell me/us about progresses!
Dietmar
