Read this description carefully.  If you do not follow my directions when you apply, I will reject you immediately.<br/>Project Description:<br/>We are looking for someone to create a small map based project that accomplishes these goals:<br/><br/>1. A way to display a map with a path(.gpx file) on the iphone<br/>2. A way to cache the map tile images so you can use them offline.<br/>Note, we are not expecting to use Google maps, because routing data would seem to break their license. Advise if you know otherwise.<br/> <br/>We will probably use something like this to display the map(since we know we would like to cache the map later and this is not supported with google maps):<br/>http://code.google.com/p/route-me/<br/>The point of displaying the map and your current location is to know where you are on the trail and avoid getting lost when following a path(.gpx file).  <br/><br/>A way to cache the map tiles so you can use them offline<br/>The interesting part will be getting the data to cache in a meaningful way so you can access it while disconnected( a lot of times our users don't have good reception when outdoors ).  What this will probably mean for us is working out an algorithm that takes a given set of points( a gpx file) and caches all the tile images associated with that path(at various different zoom levels)<br/><br/>Factor these 2 points into your bid.<br/>Your bid should describe these things:<br/>1. What 3rd map product you recommend using and why<br/>2. Your relevant mapping experience(if any) on the iphone<br/>3. Any related iphone projects.<br/>4. Your willingness to produce unit tested code(you can include this as a separate item if it increases the bid)<br/><br/>Do not reply without these, I will reject you.<br/>Also.<br/>A piece of sample code (any sample objective c++ class that I can check for style) will be requested in an interview.
