Anquet

Downloadable Anquet routes are available here: Anquet routes database including some that I have uploaded.  In due course I hope to upload Anquet routes to my walking log pages.  In the meantime, please e-mail me if you would like a copy of one of my Anquet routes (see home page).

The only other Anquet walking route files I have found are available at:

Here is an example of what can be done with the OS OpenSource mapping now available to developers:

This shows an OS map with a Google map side by side and synchronised.  Very impressive.  I want to be able to add routes and photos.  I hope that the Anquet MARS system being developed will enable this for ordinary users.
