GeoScout is a great utility, but I prefer using Memory-map Navigator (OS version) for off-road navigation so would like to be able to import caches that Geoscout has downloaded from the web into it.
Unfortunately, the PocketNav version only has an import NMEA option.

Is there any SQL or converter that can produce Memory-Map MMO files or does anyone have the MMO specification?   I have decoded a lot of it, but am struggling to identify in what format/units it holds the coordinates.


I have all the Memory-Map files for my local area. Does anyone have a way of converting them into tiles for use in GeoScout?

GSAK (www.gsak.net) has an Export Memory Map function.  So, in theory, all you would need to do is load the GPX file(s) into GSAK, and then Export it to Memory Map.  I can't vouch for how well that would work, as I've never had to do this myself.

Thanks Frank,

I already use GSAK, but I don't think there's a Windows Mobile version and I want to create the MM files when I'm out.
From GPSBabel, I've now got enough of the MMO format to be able to convert a file myself when I get the time to build a utility. Meanwhile, I've found GPSVisualizer which is a front end to GPSBabel and will do the job when I'm on-line.
