First post - be gentle! I have an issue when using Oziexplorer. I have Oziexplorer installed on my Laptop running a USB GPS Mouse receiver. I use three main...
... I don't thing there's anything you're doing wrong. If two of your map sources appear to work correctly, but one doesn't, it pretty much nails it that the...
Ozi is full of datums. You are correct is setting the Ozi NMEA GPS configuration to the same datum as your GPS (WGS84). The "Select Datum Display" has an...
Thanks. I checked the map calibration and it is set the same as it is displayed at the top of map on the screen (Australian Geodetic 1966). My head is...
... Thanks John. The maps were given to me on a CD and I put them on the laptop for use. The files came as 'ozf.map' Does this help? I'm kind of glad that...
... Ahh, let me guess, they were pre-processed by someone else? And I'll go one further and guess they got it wrong. Owing to how badly things can go wrong...
The issue is not that the map calibration matches the screen datum. The Ozi map calibration datum should match the original source of the background map...
I recently noticed that when using a function key to "find map at current position" The datum of the original map is applied to the new map, irrespective of ...
I would like to have one GPS run more than one mapping application at the same time, preferably using the NMEA output. I understand that GPSGate will do this...
Pom It sounds like you have set the datum to display a specific datum. Any further map you load will use that datum. To overcome this, I always set my datum to...
Doubled checked that was the display settings. It is and is still happens. The sat map is calibrated in lat long, that should not be the problem but I will re...
Thanks John. Yes, I just used the maps as I received them. I haven't used Ozi much at all, but I did notice that when I have played around with it in a local...
Hi Paul, This one also works on WinMobile : http://classic.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=22697&associateid=9 But if you are on WinMobile 5 or +, then...
Pom I cannot replicate your problem. I tried using the the full version & a development version and on each occasion it loads the datum of the loaded map. I...
I have digital 50k topo maps of the north Queensland area and when I print the map contours are very difficult to see [50%+ fading compared to original]. I've...
You can't do anything to a .ozfx3 file directly. You can try using a program called Demapper http://www.terraperfecta.com/demapper.php which works for me but...
Hi Mike, There is a toolbox to convert ozfx3 to bmp files which then Paint.net can enhance. The enhanced bmp can then be converted back to ozfx3. The toolbox...
Maybe not the solution you are looking for, but a program called gvSig (do a google searrch for it) may help. It is a free GIS program with all the bells and...

We are off to Canada later in the year and I have located some topographic maps from Toporama that will work well with OziExplorer. To use the maps I will...
This is a seemingly very unique situation that needs to be rectified. I mapped out a trail using Ozi and other calibrated maps but the trail generated is...
it is rare that the GPS Recievers data itself is that far off, but not rare at all that maps here and there are that far off. meaning it is more likly that...
Adding also that the Datum is set/used correctally on the map, which can do some of that same thing, shifting parts of the map off by specific ammounts. ...
You can move a track around manually. Open your map and display your track in Ozi. Next open the "Track Control." On the menu bar of the Track Control there...
Hi Paul, Sorry for the confusion. I don't know about solution on PC. Regards, Jean-Michel. 2009/6/3 Paul Wilson <opusnz@...> ... [Non-text portions of...
