Title: [Q] Offline Maps in Linux?
Post by: spence91 on September 19, 2012, 07:16:34 AM

Hi guys -

I've got an Android phone, it's really easy to store OSM or google maps data offline with it. Even my old S60 OS Nokia I could download maps.
...there's nothing immediately obvious that's available for Linux, do you guys have any suggestions?

I've used GPSDrive offline in the past on a eee901. Worked very well once set up with OSM maps for the region. gpsdrive.de

TangoGPS , Mobac (Mobile Atlas Creator), Prune; they all work in Linux.
