I am looking for a easy-to-use online service or an offline tool that allows to display tracks and waypoints from a GPX file on a OSM map for printing. The color, with and transparency of the track and the shape of waypoint markers should be configurable. It should be possible to display the waypoint description not in a pop-up but permanently on the map. I know, this is possible with QGIS, but QGIS is too complex for the intended audience. umap.openstreetmap.fr is rather close to what I am looking for but dsiplays waypoint description in popups only. |
These free programs work for me http://sourceforge.net/projects/viking/ |
Maybe you can find some more services listed in the OSM wiki about Track drawing websites ... Tell us when a service there is out of order for a longer time, or when a service is missing there. |
Garmin Basecamp will do what you require but you don't need to plug a GPS into your computer as stated above. You can download OSM or OCM in Windows format (Installer for Garmin BaseCamp/MapSource (Windows)) from this address http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/ That will install your chosen OSM on your computer. You can then select the OSM in Basecamp and import both your .gpx file containing your track(s) and your waypoints. This is something I do quite often. opentopomap is also a good source of an excellent rendering of OSM data, the web page map will also display a GPX. They also supply weekly updates of garmin img files that look good on a garmin and they will work on basecamp.

You can create and customise printable PDF maps with your tracks and waypoints online on Inkatlas. The colour of the tracks and waypoints is configurable. Full disclosure: this is my project. |
I used QBigmap for this task. |
