I don’t have a smartphone to test these out on, but Mobile Atlas Creator can also generate raster maps for the following mobile phone apps:
GPX tracks/waypoints will not show up on the generated raster maps.
You can also create waypoints on the map, and save them as a GPX file, or load GPX files and display them on the map. Set the maximum map size to 1024 for these, or else maps will be scaled down to a maximum size of 1024 x 1024 regardless of their original size, resulting in resolution degradation. Google Earth KMZ files compatible with the Garmin Colorado/Oregon/Dakota series. A nice guide to creating RMP maps with this program is available at the Triton Forum. RMP maps for Magellan Triton units be sure to set the maximum map size to 18000 before creating maps in this format. If there’s one feature I’d like to see added, it would be the ability to include any WMS (Web Map Service) as a data source. However, the requirements are fairly strict, and rule out most map servers. And the Readme file offers instructions on how to add your own map sources. Many, many more map sources from around the world. Google Maps (street, terrain, hybrid) these are likely a violation of the Google Maps TOS, and Google tends to change the URLs on these to prevent this kind of use. Terraserver USA topographic maps (1:24K, 1:100K, 1:250K depending on the zoom level) unfortunately, includes the annoying USGS watermark stamps. Map sources currently built into the program include: Written in Java, it comes with a Windows executable and Linux shell script to start up the program I don’t have a Mac, but I’d guess there’s some way to get it to work with Macintosh computers as well. Mobile Atlas Creator (formerly TrekBuddy Atlas Creator) is an open-source program that downloads map tiles from a variety of sources, and converts them into a large number of formats compatible with mobile phone mapping apps, some Garmin and Magellan GPS units, and OziExplorer.
