Mobile25 is a mapping application. It was meant to be used on our
geocaching trips. The maps are
stored as compressed bitmaps on memory card and e.g. the 1:100.000
(TOP100) and 1:25.000 (TOP25) maps of Baden-Württemberg, Germany
together require about 700MB of memory card space.

Mobile25 supports bluetooth GPS devices and can display the current
GPS position on the map.
A simple waypoint system allows to setup and maintain a list of
waypoints. Waypoints can be highlighted on the map and the distance
and direction from the current GPS position will be shown. Waypoints
are displayed in longitude/latitide format as well as in UTM format.
The latest version supports the inclusion of GPX (geocaching)
waypoints. To use this feature simply place the GPX files under
/PALM/Mobile25/gpx/ on your memory card. You can then
import these files into Mobile25 using the menu.

In theory you can convert any digital map in UTM format for use with
Mobile25. You just need a converter tool.
Currently only the top25 maps used in german are supported by a
converter tool. This tool has only been tested with a few maps (see
section below). It is solely based on file format information
available in the
internet and is
provided as is without any guarantee and for private use only.
