Newcomer / Intro 3rd party tools for logging exploration

Hi All
i know there are quite a few tools built for Elite but i wonder if anyone can point me at one that might use the log files to graphically show where you are and where you have been in the Galaxy, i have installed ED ToolBox which has a number of areas to record details and of course to look for stations etc but it doesnt seem to show all exploration info. i am sure i saw someone on a youtube vid using such a tool but i can not backtrack to the correct video again.

Thanks

"Galaxy map which shows where you've been (using the ED3D Glaxy Map
ext.png
plugin)"

Seems like ED ToolBox already has that feature. Alternatively EDDiscovery and/or Captain's Log. edsm.net with any software that submit your jump data. There's quite a few tools and/or website that should do what you want.

If you use EDMC (Market Connector) you can use it to update EDSM (and a couple other tools) automatically.

I always return to EDDiscovery.
Yes, it has quite a large footprint by time you are an Elite Explorer, but it does everything, and it does nearly all of it well (Not a fan of the 3d map)

My vote also goes to EDDiscovery. You can make an EDSM account and link it to EDDiscovery as well, so the information gathered will be updated there as well. What I absolutely love about EDDiscovery is map logging tool. You see your way on the map while you're at it.

Thanks everyone for the help, i have added both EDDiscovery and EDSM and hopefully linked them up correctly. although the graphics are not the same as one i saw it deos give a lot of information very quickly and much easier to digest rather than running through the game Tabs,

Now if we had such tools for the PS4 and that account i would be very happy :)
