mga peeps, may nag-iinstall na ba ng gps navigation sa mga sasakyan dito sa pinas? meron na ba tayong existing provider? sa palagay ko maganda kasi malaki ang tulong nya in finding places. di mo na kailangang bulaklatin ang road map mo. standard feature na kasi yan sa tate at europe.

So far wala pre. What we have now here in Phils are GIS cos who happens to have digital maps ng Pinas which they use as part of their business by subscribing to these cos to track or locate your car and not to give a service of finding a certain location. Isa pa, mahirap maglaunch ng ganyang service dito sa tin kasi pabago-bago ang daan like names of the street, and the right direction kasi minsan two-way then minsan one-way.

*cesar actualy bro meron na dito sa pinas ngayon..you just need to buy a device like mitac and it is buddle with guideme software developed by a local company which also the developer of findme vps and trackme. alam ko a-toyz nagbebenta ng mitac

guideme software can locate your location and plot it on the map. to know about the software just visit www.findme.com.ph

Wala bang subscription ito? Just what i said Findme is a GIS company that sells their services on location base system. So if this Mitac that u said is a device u can install sa sasakyan mo, who will update the data on it?

Mga tsikoteers, i know ang pinaguusapan ay GPS sa Pinas, pero gusto ko lang pong i share ang experience ko sa aking GPS device, gaya po ng sinabi ni vindiesel they're readily available sa europe, us at lalo na po sa japan. pero hindi kailangan ng installer, you can get a portable one kagaya po ng sa akin, at hindi rin po kailangan mag subscribe cause its free. These are very reliable little devices, para pong may navigator ka sa passenger side, every time po na lalarga kami sa malalayong lugar ay naka gps, at may voice guide pa kahit hindi ka na tingin ng tingin sa gps, all you have to do is listen at kung na-miss mo exit or turn ay usually re-route ka ng gps automatically. Ni minsan eh di po kami naligaw. Ang set up ko po ay PDA, portable GPS (nakalagay sa CF slot ng PDA) at Mapping software (Destinator 3 map of western Europe). Kung po sa Pinas ay readily available mga PDA at GPS naman u can get online pero po ang mapping software hindi po ako sure kung meron o available na.
