  MapTrack for Palm OSMapTrack is a Palm OS application to generate and display vector based maps on the Palm screen.  You can enter your longitude and latitude coordinates and a crosshair display will show your exact position on the map.

  But please note that a GPS is not required to use this program.   Click anywhere on a map to instantly get the latitude and longitude of that point.  Measure distance and heading between two points on the map by simply clicking on them. 

 

  Distance can be shown in meters, kilometers, miles, feet or nautical miles. Headings is always in true north. Waypoints can also be easily added to any map using a special built- in waypoint lookup database.
