Al Williams has a setup between a Garmin and a laptop that does what John Pliska needs. We're looking to be able to take a lat and log location and immediately map it on a standalone machine.

Barry,
I have a Garmin 305 cycle computer that tracks my training. I can, then, upload the data into Garmin connect and the track is married to Google Maps.

Subject: [lkhc] Needed for Pescadero Road Race, mapping lattitude and longitude coordinates to a map without having an internet connection
Calling all techy geekies on these lists.
For the Pescadero Road Race, we're going to be getting GPS coordinates from around the course, and need to be able to translate this to an actual street location on a map. This needs to be done with a minimum of setup time. The catch is that this needs to be done on a local standalone platform without having an internet connection. Preferably with freeware or open source.
Any recommendations please?
