Hallo allemaal,

ik kijk erg vooruit naar de OpenMoko telefoon. Heb op Fosdem er eentje
vastgehouden, erg gaaf! Er zijn nu al tenminste 2 applicaties
(tangoGPS en ondergenoemde) applicaties die de ingebouwde GPS van deze
telefoon (http://openmoko.com en http://openmoko.org) gebruiken icm
OpenStreetMap kaarten. *kwijl*

Groeten,

Christ

Hi!

 I am happy to announce the shiny new release of Yet Another Map
 Application - Yama in short :-).

 Yama is capable of viewing openstreetmap.org maps on PC and on OpenMoko.
 Some features:

    *  OFFLINE vector based maps in an own format optimized for viewer
    *  zoom, rotate(not implemented in SWT GUI yet), move around free
    *  compiler for OSM and Garmin(in format polish text) maps
    *  rendering template is stored in xml, can easily be edited
    *  can load any maps at the same time without performance degradation
    *  free software under GPL :-)

 Yama is written in Java so you have to install Jalimo on your device to
 use it. See the quickstart wiki page:

    * To get it wok on your PC or OpenMoko see quickstart page on Yama's
      wiki: http://yamamap.wiki.sourceforge.net/user-quickstart
    * There is an applet version that you can check out in a minute (you
      only need Java plugin 6 installed on your browser):
      http://yamamap.org/demo.php
    * For some documentation see: http://yamamap.wiki.sourceforge.net/
    * To compile the offline version of OSM for your area see:
      http://yamamap.wiki.sourceforge.net/user-compile-osm

 There is no .ipk package yet. I will create that soon!
 I would be happy to get feedback from you about the software!

 I have no Neo device yet so this version was not tested on OpenMoko.
 Previous version was - I hope it still works.

 Yama is still pre-alpha - work is in progress. I wonder the performance
 of floating point arithmetics on Neo with Jalimo. There is an
 undocumented command that runs a simple performance test. Would someone
 be so kind to execute it and send me the results? You can execute it
 with the following command:

 $ java -jar yama.jar measure

 Results on my notebook are:
 process load binary file N 1000 takes: 462 millis
 process transform to earth coordinates - N 1000 takes: 601 millis
 process transform to screen N 1000 takes: 141 millis
 process transform to screen using float N 1000 takes: 139 millis

 On my Windows PDA (300MHz ARM) with MySaifu JVM the whole test runs for
 about 15 minutes. I hope Cacao (JVM of Jalimo) performs better on Neo
 hadware.

 Cheers
 Schmidt András
