Ancient Maltese mariners used stars in the southern cross for celestial navigation 5,000 years ago https://www.universetoday.com/articles/ancient-maltese-seafarers-likely-navigated-by-the-stars Ancient Maltese seafarers had both a complex cosmology and likely at least rudimentary skills in celestial navigation. It's thought that they used stars in the southern constellation of Crux to make… #science #archaeology #navigation

Apple inför annonser i sin kartapp men förbjuder flera typer av tjänster eftersom företaget vill prioritera nya platser och sevärdheter, inte för att hitta hantverkare.#nyheter #annonser #apple #applekartor #ios #ipados #navigation Apple stoppar annonser i sin kartapp

Android Auto bekommt GPS-Tacho-Anzeige Google Maps kann es schon lange auf Smartphones: Die Geschwindigkeit nach GPS anzeigen. Offenbar kommt das nun auch für externe Displays. https://www.heise.de/news/Android-Auto-bekommt-GPS-Tacho-Anzeige-11370056.html?wt_mc=sm.red.ho.mastodon.mastodon.md_beitraege.md_beitraege&utm_source=mastodon #GoogleMaps #GPS #IT #Mobiles #Navigation #news

Zum Wochenende: Urlaubszeit ist Kartenzeit Für eine unbeschwerte Urlaubszeit empfehle ich euch zwei freie Karten- und Navigations-Apps. Die erste eignet sich für alle – die zweite ist für Feinschmecker gedacht. #CoMaps #OsmAmp #Ferien #Urlaub #Karten #Navigation #Linux https://gnulinux.ch/zum-wochenende-urlaubszeit-ist-kartenzeit

I wonder if there's any navigator for on foot which besides the quickest route, there's also the option for the most comfortable route, in terms of either fewest turns or smallest incline. Many times when I walk in some areas I know, I'm thinking of where should I walk from in order to avoid steep paths and even stairs (sometimes you don't want to tire your legs a lot). Sometimes I will compromise with a bit of steep incline if the less-incline route would take me further away. #OpenStreetMap #navigation #OSM

“Swinburne University #Professor #AllisonKealy, an expert in #positioning, #navigation and #timing, told the ABC she had raised this exact scenario when she approached Telstra earlier this year while seeking support for a proposed critical #infrastructure #resilience #research centre. Professor Kealy said the pitch to #telcos and other critical infrastructure operators was that they needed to identify shared points of failure before an outage exposed them.” "We have been approaching all the critical infrastructure sectors to tell them, we have to act now," Priorities set by Business leaders and Politicians VS Academics and Engineers. #NTP / #GPS / #telecommunications / #Swinny / #SwinburneUniversity

My #CoMaps t-shirt just arrived! CoMaps has been my first go to navigation app, and I'm loving the experience. Yes, I still fallback to that bigtech's map every other time, but CoMaps is definitelly my #1 pick for #maps and #navigation. Thank you everyone involved (which is pretty much everybody, including me 🙃 ) #FOSS #OSS #NoBigTech #OpenStreetMap #OSM @CoMaps@floss.social @CoMaps@pixelfed.social @openstreetmap@en.osm.town

Does anyone have an opinion of #HereWeGo as a mobile #map app? I can't believe something owned by a car company would be any good at cycle routing, pedestrian pathing, or public transit. I've been using a combination of #MagicEarth / Magic Lane that comes natively on /e/ OS, #CoMaps, and NS or a couple other train apps. #maps #degoogle #navigation
