Introduction
• GpsDrive is a computer program
designed to act as a vehicle navigation
system. The program displays its user's
position, obtained from an NMEA-capable
GPS receiver, on a zoomable map drawn
on a computer screen. The map file is
automatically selected depending on the
position and preferred scale.
