After writing my last blog I spent some time on Google to find out about further GPS navigation tools available in India specifically on the direction and navigation front. We already know that mapmyIndia.com and satguide.in already provide car GPS navigation system (including those on PDAs). What interested me was when I came across http://www.mapmyindia.com/mobile/. Here you could get the online version of the popular desktop version of http://maps.mapmyindia.com/ on your mobile. http://maps.mapmyindia.com/ uses mapping and navigation data from CE Info Systems which is also used on maps.yahoo.co.in (which again show great driving directions for major cities in India). My intial trials were very impressive. I could get wonderful driving directions for various places in Bangalore, however the downside is you require a constant internet connection through your carrier.
So go download from http://www.mapmyindia.com/mobile/ and start enjoying accurate driving directions in all major cities across india.
Below are pictures of some driving directions (From ITPL, Whitefield, Bangalore to 80 Feet Road, Koramangala, Bangalore) I took on my N95 using this. Looks like this is going to be my favorite application on my N95 for some time now.
