The 21st century brought new means of transport and similarly people who travel hundreds of kilometers daily. For those who have a job that implies traveling long distances and unknown destinations, companies have developed a satellite based system called GPS. The GPS was not from the very begging an application for civil use, but nowadays it became not only a civil helpful application, but also a free one. Of course, Google could not lose the opportunity to offer to their “always on road” users many free GPS software.
It is difficult to say which of these programs is better as all of them have the same function and an easy to use interface. From a large amount of offers, some of them deserve to pay attention to. One of these, the EasyGPS, an application that connects you with the best Internet mapping sites on the Web. It is one of the faster and easier GPS applications, as it provides you information not only about directions or distance, but also it informs you about weather and besides it shows you even aerial maps in just a couple of seconds. The EasyGPS gives you the chance to ordinate all the routes you can take when you are driving towards an unknown direction. You can ordinate it by distance or by name. An innovation that is brought by EasyGPS is the socializing platform. The Free software allows its user to communicate with other users located all over the world.
Moreover, another GPS software is the Mapyx Quo application. This is also an easy to use program and has two main advantages: on one hand it shows you not only the distance and waypoints, but also the time that is remained since you reach your destination. It supports many types of format, such as: Google Earth KML, GPS Exchange, Geocathching, and Magellan types.
