SketchGPS
for the iPhone

Intro:
SketchGPS is a business or pleasure application which measures map paths up to 100 point for running, boating, trips, hiking, real estate, etc.

Features:
SketchGPS saves points to the iPhone's cut and paste clipboard for pasting later in a txt message or email. Also, GPS coordinates acquired from other sources can be copied to the iPhone's cut and paste clipboard, then loaded into SketchGPS. The point limit is 100 points.

Txt or email to share data. Use the iPhone cut and paste clipboard to get pre-loaded data.

GPS coordinates (CSV format):
A GPS coordinate is two points: longitude(E-W), latitude(N-S) separated by a comma. one GPS coordinate pair per line.

longitude-1, latitude-1
longitude-2, latitude-2
longitude-3, latitude-3
(and so on)

You can add description lines for your own use. Only lines with two numbers separated by a comma will be loaded as points. There is no need to remove extra descriptive lines before loading.

Controls:

Tap the ADD button to add a pin in the center of the map. Move around the map by dragging. Zoom out with a two finger tap, Zoom in with a single finger double tap. Wait for your path to refresh before dragging some more.

Tap any pin you add to delete the last pin in your path.

Tap FIT to see all the pins you created: the entire path.

Tap MAP to switch between a simple and a complex map.

Share the current path by tapping SHARE. The current path will be loaded into the iPhone's cut and paste clipboard, for later use in other programs, or for pasting into a txt message or email.

Get path points from the iPhone's cut and paste clipboard by tapping GET NN. The NN is the number of GPS points that SketchGPS detects in the iPhone clipboard. The new path will immediately appear.

Business Trip Jog:

Create your jog path right from your hotel room, or even before you arrive. Just zoom way out and pick a location anywhere in the world. Click for each pin defining your path. Save a snapshot for later use.

Daily Jog:

Nobody like to run the same path everyday. But we all like to keep the same distance. SketchGPS helps you be more creative in designing your path, while maintaining the same total distance.

Big Trip:

SketchGPS is good for up to 100 points, which is useful for bike trips, land layouts, or any sketch requiring moderate detail.

Quick Distance:

Those quick distances (as the crow flies).

Boat ride:

iTrackME is perfect to map out your water path.

Lot Layout:

Txt message a friend or associate that new lot you're thinking about.

Another use:
See how far you walked or drove or rode today! Retrace your steps and find out the total distance.

How it works:

Your iPhone gets gps signals from up to 5 devices floating in space. Your iphone then shows your location in a world map. You can zoom in or out as you wish. SketchGPS stores points that you create, and calculates the total distance in miles and feet.

Tip:

After adding a pin, tap the FIT button to automatically zoom out. This makes it easier to just pan to add your next point. There is a 100 point limit. No need for more, is there?

To empty the iPhone cut and paste clipboard, start a new emty sketchGPS, and tap SHARE. Restart sketchGPS.

Next Version:
Maybe move each pin individually.
