NaviPOWM is planned to become a car navigation software. You can use it on devices running Windows Mobile, Windows and Linux.
The current version is 0.2.6 and it is available at sourceforge:
There is a small WIKI-page with explanations on the site as well:
NaviPOWM can use OSM vector maps (no tiles needed) converted by OSM2POWM.
- NaviPOWM is planned to be a routing software.
- NaviPOWM can already show OSM maps in the background converted by OSM2POWM.
- NaviPOWM can already record GPS data in NMEA format. Have a look at Converting NMEA to GPX when you need GPX-Files. (JOSM and Merkaartor can read NMEA)
Map Downloads
Whole Planet and all Countries
Each single MAP-file (1°x1°) is compressed with 7z. You have to extract them before using with NaviPOWM.
- look at the Mainpage for update status
- download from HTTP-Server
- download single files from OSM-map
- all countries of the whole world are sorted by continent and country. Use wget to load all MAP-files of a country.

If you want to record tracks by foot or by bike, edit the navipowm.txt file. Set the minimum distance to 4m for bikes, to 1m for walking. 10 is default and works fine for cars. To disable SN in the hardware (GPS chip) you have to use other tools.
