    Hi all, One way of displaying map of an area for a gps application is to have simple map image (e.g., jpg) together with geo coordinates of its each corner. since, I am just starting with this kind of application can anyone let me know if there is a better (standard) map file format? I need to display current location in the map and possible navigate user to certain point. the area of coverage is quite small (factory area). regards, rnv

        thank you John, I already had a look but maybe i missed it..i could not get it correctly. If I have an image of an area (jpg) somehow i should specify its coordinates. is it specified in a separate file from the jpg file itself? I managed to run map grabber example but it only creates jpg images. where are coordinates saved? regards, rnv
