Bugs and features list

Here's what we have been working on recently, and what we hope to add soonish:

Changes

Custom icons for routes - allow users to add their own additional icons
Rich text editor for the route descriptions
Route download. Let us know about any bugs
Any user can select display units. If you are logged in, it's stored in your profile, otherwise a cookie is used.
Better location selection during account creation. UK location selection is still not great and will be improved at some point
Improvements to import using new engine for KML and GPX files. Tracks and waypoints as well as routes can be imported.
Import of Exif data from photos
Display of the elevation data source (calculated or GPS)
Automatic creation of Waypoints from either Exif lat/long, or Exif tagged photos associated with tracks by matching timestamp
Better display of track data - by removing excess points
Track data editing. Basic editor for GPS track data to remove elevation spikes and bad values
Import compressed KML (KMZ) formated files. KMZ is the same as KML, only compressed. It will now import correctly. At some point we'll add download support for KMZ.
Map based searching. You can look for routes on a map, and set filters to show only certain types of routes. You can also create permalinks which will allow you to send or bookmark maps
New map control. We have upgraded to the latest Virtual Earth Maps, which are faster and offer more features. There's still a few minor glitches in the popups whch we're working on
Live.com collections. You can now upload collections created in Live.com, to create routes without installing software
Combined map and elevation profile for the route map view
3D view. Microsoft has added highly detailed elevation data for the UK, and the 3D view of routes now looks stunning
Full screen maps - showing the route map full screen for added detail - still a few bugs in the 3d view on this page
Route Collections. The ability to group together routes which are connected with each other
Text Search. You can seach for routes by keyworks, it's not quite google, but it does a reasonable job of find stuff
Route Map in Google Maps. Show the route in Google Maps, works identically to the VE version
Play routes - you can play back route data by clicking on the play icons above the elevation profile
Slideshow - shows all the photos for a route with a AJAX driven slideshow page
Icons - a new look and even more icons. Shout if we're missing something
The English Lake District - we've got loads of new routes, thanks to the kind people at Lake District Walks.
User maps. See who else is on sharemyroutes Example.
Themes: route authors can now select themes to customise the look of routes. Example: Doreen Falls
Hardware upgrade. We're running on a new, faster server, which should speed things up a bit.
Route Editing map improvements. Fixed various niggles including editing in Firefox, and the POI list updating.
Embedded Maps. You can embed an Iframe containing a route, and it works following upgrading the site to .NET 3.5. Example
Total Ascent/Descent. Fixed a minor bug in the calculation of total descent. Ascent may vary slightly from descent if the end of the route is not exactly at the start.
KML export. There was a minor bug in the output of coordinates, which is fixed now
KML import. Import should be more robust now, and handle many more KML files, including Nokia Sportstracker, and other applications
Hill Shading. 3D shading of hills is now available for both Bing Maps and Google Maps. Although the aerial maps work best for many routes, seeing a route with hills shaded is a nice way to visualise a route as well.
Webservices. We're providing an API to manipulate routes from 3rd party applications and websites. If you are interested in using this data, talk to us.
Groups. Members can create groups and invite people of shared interest to these groups.
Conversion units. We've added a new set of units called 'mixed' which give you heights in metres and distances in miles, which is how some people like to see stuff appearently.
Groups. Gather together with other members to form a group of like minded people.
Events. Publish events your group is running. Allow others to add comments and photos to your event.
Layers. Show additional useful information on a route map
Fixed info popup with 3D maps
Photo import. Import photos you have already uploaded to flickr
Facebook. Show your routes on facebook.
Route editing. Edit your route data to remove spikes and glitches

Under development:

Clustering: The map of all routes is getting a slow, now there's loads of routes. We'll be doing stuff to speed this up
Performance data - speed and average speed for GPS tracks
More ways to find other users with similar interests based on your activity tags
