Marble — это графический элемент для приложений KDE, в которых необходим показ географических карт. Marble изображает Землю в виде сферы, при этом не требуется наличие аппаратного ускорения. Поскольку в состав пакета включён минимальный набор географических карт, подключаться к сети Интернет для работы программы нет необходимости.

Этот пакет является частью образовательного модуля KDE.

GMT is a collection of tools that allow users to manipulate (x,y) and (x,y,z) data sets (including filtering, trend fitting, gridding, projecting, etc.) and produce Encapsulated PostScript File (EPS) illustrations ranging from simple x-y plots through contour maps to artificially illuminated surfaces and 3-D perspective views in black and white, gray tone, hachure patterns, and 24-bit color.

GMT supports many common map projections plus linear, log, and power scaling, and comes with support data such as coastlines, rivers, and political boundaries.

gpscorrelate fills EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) fields of digital photos related to GPS (Global Positioning System) information (e.g.: GPSLatitude, GPSLongitude, GPSAltitude, ...). The act of filling those fields is referred to as "correlation".

Inputs of the correlation process are a set of JPEG images and GPS data encoded in GPX (GPS Exchange Format) format.

If GPS data are available at the precise moment the photo was taken (with a 1-second granularity) the GPS data are stored unmodified in EXIF fields. If they are not linear interpolation of GPS data available at moments before and after the photo was taken can be used.

Both a command line tool (package gpscorrelate) and a GTK+ graphical user interface for it (package gpscorrelate-gui) are provided.

This package contains the command line tool and the documentation in HTML format.

Commonly referred to as GRASS, this is a Geographic Information System (GIS) used for geospatial data management and analysis, image processing, graphics/map production, spatial modeling, and visualization. GRASS is currently used in academic and commercial settings around the world, as well as by many government agencies and environmental consulting companies.

Install this virtual package to get a full GRASS system.

The package is enhanced by the following packages: e00compr

A portable, high level graphics toolkit for the development of high performance graphics applications such as flight simulators, games, virtual reality or scientific visualization. Providing an object orientated framework on top of OpenGL, it frees the developer from implementing and optimizing low level graphics calls, and provide many additional utilities for rapid development of graphics applications.

This package contains utilities and examples (binaries).

A Geographic Information System (GIS) manages, analyzes, and displays databases of geographic information. QGIS supports shape file viewing and editing, spatial data storage with PostgreSQL/PostGIS, projection on-the-fly, map composition, and a number of other features via a plugin interface. QGIS also supports display of various georeferenced raster and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) formats including GeoTIFF, Arc/Info ASCII Grid, and USGS ASCII DEM.

Viking создан быть простым в использовании, но достаточно мощным для решения широкого спектра задач связанных с GPS. Он использует иерархическую систему слоев для организации данных GPS, карт и других типов слоев с пространственными данными, такими как координатные линии.

Некоторые из примеров использования Viking:

  • Загрузка и выгрузка точек маршрута и курса из и на GPS.
  • Прокладка курса GPS и его запись в реальном времени.
  • Подготовка курсов и точек маршрута для путешествий с использованием карт с таких серверов таких как OpenStreetmap и Terraserver. Вам необходимо лишь скопировать данные на ваш GPS перед началом путешествия. Карты вместе с вашими курсом и точками также могут быть распечатаны и использованы во время путешествия.
  • После путешествий, курсы и точки маршрута из GPS могут быть загружены, сохранены и использованы в дальнейших путешествиях.
  • Анализ внедорожных путешествий, туристических путешествий, понимание куда вы отклонились и насколько далеко вы были от какой-либо точки.
  • Создание точек маршрута и курсов, следуя которым возможно легко добраться куда-либо, где вы небыли до этого или не имеете данных GPS для этих мест, но для них существуют карты Terraserver.
  • Создание карт с координатными линиями.
  • Анализ скорости в различных местах, добавление точек которые вы забыли отметить, но снизили скорость или остановились.

This package provides a versatile tool for GPS maps in GeoTiff format as well as Garmin's img vector map format. QLandkarteGT is the successor of QLandkarte. Among various improvements (e.g. 2D/3D map rendering and reduced resource demands) the major difference is its device-independent architecture.

Additionally, QLandkarteGT serves as a frontend to the GDAL tools, to make georeferencing of scanned maps feasible for users. In contrast to similar tools (e.g. QGis) its straightforward interface is especially suited for non-scientific users.
