starting to map eastern montreal (canada)

Posted by djo0012 on 6 September 2008 in English.

I've start to map the eastern montreal with yahoo picture but I'm now searching a cheap gps receiver so I could use geotagged picture to add all the feature around here and some pedestrian path that I cannot figure out on the yahoo map or that I did from memory (so not so precise).

so if anyone have a clue of were to find a little gps receiver (bluetooth would be preferable but usb is just fine) the I could use with my laptop (linux or windows but I prefere linux since some pluggin of JSON doesn't work well on win)

thanks for help if you can.

Location: Montréal-Est, Urban agglomeration of Montreal, Montreal (administrative region), Quebec, Canada

I managed to get a cheap bluetooth gps from Amazon UK for 22 GBP, including postage. There is some slightly more expensive models that should be better.

You may want to look into gpsd.
