TopoDraw allows you to draw new waypoints and tracks directly onto a 2D map simply by pointing and clicking. You can also use TopoDraw to present navigation data gathered with your Garmin GPS unit on a 2D map.

You can turn any graphics file into a map for use with TopoDraw. Use any jpeg, gif, tiff or pict that you find on the internet, export from a CD-rom atlas, or scan from a real topographical map.

TopoDraw integrates support for Link2GPS. You can upload data created with TopoDraw directly to your GPS unit with Link2GPS, and you can drag and drop navigation data directly from Link2GPS onto a TopoDraw map.

Limitations:
TopoDraw is distributed as shareware. You can try it out for 30 days. During this trial period the application is fully functional, but a splash screen will remind you to support shareware.

What's New:
Fix: Corrected the time format for track points in a GPX file.
Fix: Fixed problem with calibrating a map using UTM coordinates.
Fix: Time stamps were not correctly read from old .gps files.
Fix: Very old .gps files were not correctly imported by the new XML parser.
Requirements:
Garmin GPS Unit
