Navit is an open source (GPL) car navigation software for Linux, Windows systems and portable devices. It will display your position on a map (in bird-view mode or as a 3D "visualization") from GPS sensor data, and can provide precise route calculation, touch screen functionality and supports Points of Interest (POI), which can be extended via an easy to use plugin system. Unlike other navigation systems, Navit maps are dynamically generated in real time from vector data.

Navit 0.2.0 "Long Awaited" is here! As its codename states, it's been a while since the last Navit release, but a lot of work has been done (we have X commits since last release!)
