  1. Hello,

    I've written an application which takes Garmin Training Center history
    files or logbook files (used for the Forerunner 201/301/205/305 and
    Edge 205/305) and creates a lot of statistics and graphs based on the
    activities in your file. But best of all, it will draw out your route
    on a satelite image using google maps.

    Its free to use (no limits of any kind) and is available at the
    following site.

    http://running.hobby-site.com:8080/

    There's also a sample page and a full feature list on the site.

    Regards,
    ~Bruno

    Despite the spamming quality of thispost, that's a pretty nifty site (if it
    works properly, I don't have a Garmin forerunner to test with). I'm doing
    something reasonably similar, but for GPX files.

    Maybe you can let me into how you are doing your graphs. 😉

  3. Yeah I'm sorry about the spaming taste to it, but I thought it was
    worth letting people know. Besides, I'm actualy typing this stuff out,
    its not like its some bot posting.

    I'm also looking into supporting GPX files, so if I tell you how I do
    the graphs, what would differentiate our apps? ;-)

    Want to have a friendly race to see who supports GPX first ;-)

    I already do .. Http://gps.elyob.com 😉

    However, I haven't put in the upload part yet, and am altering the original
    code to save the files to MySQL instead of just outputting to the screen.

    I should be able to create graphs in PHP, but just need to put some time
    into it, sometime.

  5. Damn, I've been beaten before I even start ;-) It looks like your
    concentrated on the google map part of it in order to share route.
    I'm sort of focused on the stats side of it (as in sharing your
    running/biking data with your coach or students or ...) and the route I
    have is more of a "cool feature" to the page. So I sort of see
    different applications to our apps.

    Nice site btw. One comment though, the black line looks good when on
    the "streets" view, but its hard to see when on the "satelite" or
    "hybrid" views. Just my opinion. I have a similiar issue, I'd like to
    change the colour of the polyline depending on the map view the user
    has, but I haven't spent enough time looking into how to do that.

    Thanks, yes I know that looks bad when viewed that way! I will allow people
    to decide themselves their preferred colours, so not something that I'm
    working on at the moment.

    I've got a lot of work to do on it, and have some big plans. But also have
    plenty of other stuff to do.

    Oh, have neither of us answered this one yet? I'll be the first.

    I think we have different ideas, maybe later. Just not now.

    Thanks though.
