Free navigation, 3D maps, voice guidance and tourist information always available on your java enabled mobile phone, without network connection.
We-Travel is a personal initiative to develop a free navigation solution for Java enabled mobile phones.
Features:
Turn-by-Turn Voice Guided Navigation:
Based on your location, We-Travel gives you clear voice directions to reach your destination in an optimal way, either by car, bike or foot, supported by a 3D 'bird's eye' rotating map display.
Open and Free:
We-Travel is a totally free navigation software for java enabled mobile phones, based on map data from Open Street Map. No good map navigation maps available for your area Help Open Street Map!
Always Available:
All map data is stored locally on your phone. This ensures We-Travel works offline in places where there is no mobile phone reception, abroad or in the countryside. And as a plus, there are no telecom costs associated with route calculation or map display!
We-Travel is developed as a platform, on which several location based services can be added.
This could be anything from city guides, tourist tours to speed camera's and online traffic information, or meeting friends. Imagination is the only limit!
And maybe, very maybe or in a parallel universe, We-Travel could play an enabling role in the creation of the holy grail of modern transport, a true dynamic ride sharing platform.
Yes, I believe it's possible and the world is ready for it, just nobody is realising it yet ...
But back to reality...
As a first feature, We-Travel already allows you (optionally) to record your trips and submit them automatically or upon request to the We-Travel website, from where you can export them to Open Street Maps, Google Earth, ... etc. Note that you are only allowed to see your own traces and retention time of traces might be limited in the future.
