More ways to explore more local tracks
17/10/2008 | Posted by Nick | Permalink
We've made it even easier to find out what's going on around you in your area. I'm please to say that tracks in places near you or in your country have all been grouped together. It's another great addition that lets you follow other Map My Tracks users that are active in your area.
So how does it work? Simple - on each track the route places and country names now link to a group of tracks for that area. For example, brasaap’s track is in the Netherlands starting from Boswachterij Dorst and finishing up at Zuidewijn. Some places and countries have more activity than others for now but all new public tracks get added automatically.
Here are just some of the, over 85 countries, that have users have made public tracks in:
- Germany
- United States of America
- Great Britain
- Finland
- France
- Australia
- Brazil
- Saudi Arabia
- South Africa
As ever, we hope you enjoy the new tools.
