Martin Loetzsch developed an map overlay for Google Earth (kml file) which displays all OSM public GPS traces:

These GPS traces are a good supplement to the OSM map at locations where paths are inaccurate or missing. Therefore I would like to display the GPS traces as an overlay in OruxMaps.



The direct solution using the kml file as an map overlay doesn't work for me, maybe because the network link requires Google authentication. Another solution would be using a WMS server but I didn't find any serving the OSM public GPS traces.



Does anyone have an idea how to implement my wish?
