GMap.NET1.6.0.0

GMap.NET is a simple-to-use tool designed to let you easily navigate Google Maps, which can be integrated into Windows forms. It features support for data cachine, so that you can export routing and geocoding to file.

No installation necessary, apart from .NET Framework

Those who just want to test the tool without integrating it into software can simply drop the program files to a custom directory on the disk and just click the executable to launch the app. Otherwise, GMap.NET can be saved to a pen drive to directly run it on any PC, provided that it has .NET Framework installed.What's more, unlike most installers, GMap.NET does not modify Windows registry settings or create extra files on the disk without your permission, thus leaving no traces behind after its removal.

Simple interface with comprehensive options

The UI is based on a normal window with a straightforward look that shows all available options. The maps are automatically loaded at startup, and you can easily explore them, zoom in and out, add a marker, as well as jump to a specific location by entering its coordinates.

Add markers, plan routes, change the map

It is possible to switch to another maps provider, hide the current marker or add extra ones, disable map dragging, put together a route, as well as to export and import cache files when it comes to routing and geocoding. Moreover, GMap.NET implements tools for viewing a vehicle or flight radar demo, as well as for testing performance and the TCP/IP connections.

Evaluation and conclusion

There were no kind of stability issues in our tests, since GMap.NET did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. It had minimal impact on system performance, running on low CPU and RAM. All in all, this app features plenty of useful functions for viewing, planning and exporting maps and routes.
