Golenfound's Google Maps with GPS Tracker is a small, free application that uploads your GPS position regularly via GPRS or 3G and then automatically updates your position on a Google Map display. You need a GPS device to use it, but you can download and try the GpsGate simulator software free for 14 days. Once you're familiar with Google Maps with GPS Tracker, you can buy a GPS device that suits your needs and configure the program to accept it. A small, square, tabbed interface opened on the GPS tab, which showed blank fields.

The program's Web-based documentation and assistance made the setup a snap. We clicked the Settings button and selected the GPS tab, which let us configure GPS Type, the COM Port on our PC we use to connect our GPS device, the baud rate, and kilometers or miles for distance, as well as choose to log our input. The Garmin Protocol tab lets Garmin GPS users enter their product ID, software version, and other data as well as set the protocol. The Share tab contained a single button that let us share our current location via a Web site. Activating this feature called up a slider that let us configure the time out in minutes. The first time we ran the program, we had to permit access through the Windows firewall and our other security tools, but it opened normally after that, displaying our current location with the usual indicator on a Google Map.

Since our movements were within the default GPS radius, we couldn't track them, but Google Maps with GPS Tracker will get a workout on our next trip. We could also configure Google Maps with GPS Tracker to send GPS data to a wide range of outputs, including system ports, com protocols, and even Google Earth. We tried this last option, which included a setup dialog for configuring Google Earth's settings. Full Specifications What's new in version 45.0 Version 45.0 improves map functionality.

0:58 Google Earth has been around for years, yet it still makes my jaw drop. I mean, seriously, for centuries the only way to get a 'bird's-eye' view of our planet was to spin an actual globe. Now we can 'fly' to any location and zoom all the way in from space to a couple hundred feet above real, satellite-mapped ground. Google Earth Pro Screenshot by Rick Broida/CNET Most amazing of all, Google made this tool available for free. This despite an educational - and, let's be honest, entertainment - value that's virtually impossible to measure.

What you maybe didn't know is that Google has long offered a Pro version of Earth as well, one that cost a hefty $399 per year. Now, however, you can get. First things first: The words 'free trial' still appear in that URL, but as you'll see when you click through to the sign-up page, 'Sign up is no longer required for Google Earth Pro.' All you have to do is, run it, then sign in using your e-mail address (as your username) and license code GEPFREE. Second things second: Do you really need this? Probably not, as Pro was created with business/enterprise users in mind - but it does afford some pretty cool extras not found in the free version, including:. Advanced measurements: Measure parking lots and land developments with polygon area measure, or determine affected radius with circle measure.

High-resolution printing: Print images up to 4,800 x 3,200 pixel resolution. Exclusive pro data layers: Demographics, parcels, and traffic count. Spreadsheet import: Ingest up to 2,500 addresses at a time, assigning place marks and style templates in bulk. Movie-Maker: Export Windows Media and QuickTime HD movies, up to 1,920x1,080-pixel resolution. So, yeah, you could print ultra-high-resolution images of, say, your neighborhood. (The free version tops out at 1,000 pixels.) Or add high-def fly-over videos to your movies. Pretty sweet stuff.

And don't overlook the huge thrill of scoring a $400 product for free. That's always fun. Don't ask me how to pronounce it.

Ztylus Bonus deal: Calling all iPhone 6-owning shutterbugs! Ztylus makes a really cool case/camera-lens combo, but it normally costs $100. For a limited time, StackSocial has the, by far the lowest price I've seen anywhere. (Also available:.).
