Hi there.

I've been looking for some software like street planner. I've found RealMaps and nothing else, since all the other I'v come across have been discontinued.

The main problem with RealMaps is that I can't find city plans for all the cities I need (like Madrid or Lisbon).

It's possible I've not been looking in the right places. Can anyone help me to find mor city maps for realmaps or tell me other software I can use?

Thanks,
Luís

I'm sure they're out there somewhere. A quick Google turned up this map of Lisbon:

If you want to use it with a GPS you have to determine the coordinates of the corners of the map, but otherwise you just need to save the map image and convert it for RealMaps/Psion.

By the way, RealMaps is a cracking bit of software. 10 out of 10
