Performance/Trip Review

With Memory-Map, it's easy to build a history of your trips and even include features for the outdoor athlete.

Import a track log from a handheld GPS or one created with live GPS and see exactly where you've been, together with your speed and distance covered and profile in a graphical form. Some GPS units record heart rate and pedal cadence, which can also be displayed graphically.

Create a digital journal by adding pictures, text, sounds or other program files to any point on the map. By linking them to marks, a simple double click opens a photo, sound recording or other file.
