That means we could,potentially,contribute to freemap with GPS enabled cell phones if we had a way to *record* the position(and co-ordinates)of landmarks like the device which will be distributed does.So,if we don't want progress on freemap to be restricted by the number of devices[I'm going to call this device MuktTrack] available,we need a software which can be installed on cell phones and records co-ordinates,eh?Then we get the output of that software and convert it to gpx by either this script or gpsbabel,whichever is applicable.Comments please.
is freemap something different from openstreetmap?
