Lifetime Maps Tablet option

[Ragnar406]

Yeah, I saw the drama in the WV facebook group about BobT's maps. It's not just selling a service of putting maps on tablets. There are countless hours that go into mapping, cleaning up, programming, supplier invoicing, phone support, answering inquiries, website building and updates, mapping updates, packaging supplies, stickers, shipping, etc. I invest 30 hours minimum per week into this mapping adventure above and beyond running my graphics business and anyone who has dealt with me knows that my service is 110%.

I've been in business for almost 25 years. I learned early on that there are haters in every arena. People will bash you for spanking your kids, drinking a unique beer, driving a certain brand, etc. It doesn't phase me in the least. Some hate because of their life circumstances. Some hate because they were born angry. Some just have nothing better to do than hate. Lifetime Trail Maps speak for themselves and the community support for what we are doing is phenomenal.

Anyone who has ever dealt with crowd sourced data, even reviewed answered surveys should be able to relate. Just organizing all the information and keeping current would be a chore. People have just gotten use to going to the internet to get answers - it is tough enough to get people to search for the answer rather than just posting to have someone answer for them. You are also taking a lot of responsibility on with dealing with other people devices and cleaning up the routes you get. Plus it looks as you are adding value by having tutorials online that customers can watch - that is a big investment of time on your end.... I look at it as time I don't have to invest and I am willing to exchange to get my time back.

While I don't know the exact drama in the WV FB group I am willing to bet the same people upset that you might be using someone's trails that were publicly posted have no problem using that same data and not compensating someone for it.

You are exactly right and what's ironic is that I offered financial compensation to BobT for using some of his Hatfield tracks. Of course, he said no big deal. Drama llama farms are popping up all over the interwebz.

Been playing all morning with the tablet. Adjusting, changing just to tweak it to my preferences. This thing is awesome. The only thing I would like to have is the ability to save points of interest to the map. Aside from that I can't wait to use it this weekend at Coalmont.

 

[Lifetime-Trailmaps]

You can certainly save points of interest on the map. Call me.

Thanks for calling me Chris. He straightened me out on how to save points of interest without losing them when you clear the "track". Easy, just kept missing it. Again looking forward to using it this Saturday at Coalmont. Gonna be a blast.

Do you plan to use 1 big card or a couple smaller cards?

Used the tablet with the Lifetime Maps on it for the first time at Coalmont. It worked absolutely perfectly. Money well spent.
