Hema on the Ipad -iOS6

[megatexture]

I was lucky enough to get a copy of maps ( Hema, ubd and many mining lease maps) off my wife's uncle but you can buy the app for like 7$ and it comes with 3 aus wide maps ,
then upload maps you have or memory map disk can be bought online

If you want full aus wide maps Hema on memory map app would be the go as it would get costly to get all areas on memory map maps

Apparently the app is free now.

A small side note, I found an app called my tracks on the android market a while back.. it tracks your trip and records things like time, distance, average speed, max speed, altitude etc.
My phone has a built in GPS, so not sire if it'll work via data from towers?? Also not sure on availability to apple??
Could someone have a quick look?

MR,
I was running the Hema product (which is memory map) on the Woods Point weekend. I had scanned and uploaded the relevant Rooftops maps of the area.
It worked a treat. Kept all my tracks of the weekend too. I had it set up on my iPad and fixed to the dash with a Ram mount. I have both Mud Maps and the Hema app and reckon the Hema app is better for the way in which I use it.
I've also done a DIY guide on here explaining how to scan and calibrate a map into the Hema/Memory Map app.
I ended up buying the Hema app because it had the touring maps all included, I figured it just save mucking around.

I'll add, the ability to scan in your own maps is the winner in my book.
I know on the Woods Point trip, we had much clearer mapping (using my scanned maps) than those with "out of the box" GPS units and the Rooftops maps are the best around the high country.

Thansk Drew, i remember your thread about scanning maps but did not have an ipad at the time so took little interest. i will have to review that thread if i start scanning maps for sure.

How much did the Hema App cost you and did it come with the full Hema catalog of maps? or do you buy as required?

I have a heap of maps already on Ozi Explorer and also NissHead sent me a heap on disk. can i use these into MudMap and or Hema?

and drew have you got your RAM mount bolted to the floor? did it move around much? did it get in the way of changing gears?

From memory the app cost me $130 or so with the full range if Hema maps.
If you already have OE maps and others, you can import those most of those into Hema/Memory Map (they are the same base software, with Hema you are paying for the included maps).
There is one particular OE format that is difficult to import but I think it's a later version. If you do a quick google search for Memory Map Oziexplorer conversion, you should get a bunch of results.
If you have those maps, it comes down to if you can be bothered spending the time to convert and import them as to whether you go for Hema or Memory Map (IMHO). Be aware that even though the Memory map PC and IPad App may be free, to import and calibrate maps you will need to pay an extra $50 (same with Hema).

Nah, I figured it would bounce around too much (kinda like a pendulum). I've screwed mine into a blank switch area in the dash facia and it stands up well (have a look in the above pic), even on those corrugations coming into Woods Point.
I can take a few more pics if you need.....
Cheers,
Drew.

Yep a few more pics of how you have connected the mount would be great. i have just done an ebay search and there are plenty of options. seriously thinking of a floor mount job on a HD flex mount like this RAM-Strong-Passenger-Seat-Stand-Mount-Holder-for-Apple-iPad-1-2-3-
