You can download some interactive maps for mobile phones with J2ME/MIDP (Java 2 Micro Edition) as JAR files. If you want to download the file using GPRS you have to use the link to the JAD file instead. Please refer to your mobile-phone's manual on how to install Java programs. E-mail me, if you find a bug in the software.
To compile and emulate the software on your PC, you need to download the Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) Wireless Toolkit.

Weybridge/UK Example
The map was taken from openstreetmap.org (License: GFDL).
- MobiNav.jar (191 kByte) Java archive
- MobiNav.jad description file
- MobiNav.tar.gz (176 kByte) source code and map-tiles (license: GPL)
- splitmap.tar.bz2 (1912 bytes) source code of GNU/Linux program for splitting up an input file into map-tiles (requires Mimas-2.0). Note, that you need to provide map-tiles for several resolutions (multiresolution pyramid). Therefore you also need a program for scaling images (you can use the command-line tool convert, which is part of ImageMagick)!
