I'd love to take a look at it, even though my programming experience consists mainly of about a decade of POV-Ray scene construction code and another decade of GWBASIC. I really tried
VB.Net and that differs from its ancient GWBASIC roots kind of like how a '10 Prius differs from a '78 Corolla, multiple layers of complexity vs. utterly straightforward. Pixel-level graphics manipulation at least simply did not appear possible, but accessing MS Office data was fairly easy (what a surprise...).

That could need a Large variable storage space... Would it make more sense to re-program a GPS unit to provide look-ahead topo data to the MIMA via USB with the GPS also providing a MIMA GUI? I have no idea how accessible GPS programming is, if at all (possibly pure Assembler?).
