Debian GIS Gps packages

foxtrotGPS is a map and GPS application. By default, it uses maps from OpenStreetMap. The available features include downloading and displaying tiled maps, recording GPS tracks, automatic map centering, storing points of interest, geocoding photos, setting waypoints, monitoring heartrate via Bluetooth, planning travel routes and finding travel routes using external services on the Internet based on OpenStreetMap.

GPSBabel converts waypoints, tracks, and routes from one format to another, whether that format is a common mapping format like Delorme, Streets and Trips, or even a serial upload or download to a GPS unit such as those from Garmin and Magellan.

GPSBabel supports dozens of data formats and will be useful for tasks such as geocaching, mapping, and converting from one GPS unit to another. Among the interesting formats it supports are several GPS devices via a serial link, various PDA-based mapping programs, and various Geocaching data formats.

Among others GPSBabel supports the following formats:

Cetus, CoPilot Flight Planner, CSV, Custom CSV, Delorme Street Atlas, Delorme Street Atlas 2004 Plus, Delorms GPS Log, Delorme routes, DNA, EasyGPS Binary, Fugawi, Garmin serial, Geocaching.com loc, GeocachingDB, Geoniche, GPilotS, GPSDrive, GPSman, GPSPilot, gpsutil, GPX, Holux, IGC, Magellan serial, Magellan SD, Magellan Navigator Companion, Mapopolis.Com Mapconverter, Mapsend, Mapsource, Maptech, Microsoft Streets and Trips, Navicache, Netstumbler, NIMA/GNIS Geographic Names, NMEA sentences, OziExplorer, PalmDoc, PCX5, PocketStreets 2002 Pushpin, PSITrex, Quovadis, Tab-separated data, Tiger, TopoMapPro, Topo by National Geographic, xcsv, xmap, xmapwpt.

The gpsd service daemon can monitor one or more GPS devices connected to a host computer, making all data on the location and movements of the sensors available to be queried on TCP port 2947.

With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications can share access to devices without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than the different standards emitted by GPS devices.

The gpsd service daemon can monitor one or more GPS devices connected to a host computer, making all data on the location and movements of the sensors available to be queried on TCP port 2947.

This package contains auxiliary tools and example clients for monitoring and testing gpsd.

Map-based navigation system that displays the current position provided by a GPS receiver on a zoomable map. Maps can be downloaded from different map providers or rendered on-the-fly using the OpenStreetMap dataset.

Route planning, optionally with spoken directions, is supported through waypoints.

GPSMan est un gestionnaire de données GPS en mode graphique. Il permet de préparer, inspecter et modifier les données GPS avec une interface ergonomique. GPSMan prend en charge la communication et l'enregistrement des données en temps réel avec les appareils Garmin et Lowrance. La récupération en temps réel des informations à la norme NMEA 0183 est assurée avec n'importe quel appareil.

GPStrans allows a user with a Garmin GPS receiver to upload and download waypoints, routes, almanac (satellite orbit elements), and track routes.

Convertit des fichiers GPS ou GPX en fichiers ESRI/Shape. Inclut les outils gps2shp et gpx2shp. Ils sont très utiles lors de la collecte de points GPS avec des outils de système d'information géographique (GIS) tels que qgis et GRASS.

Marble est un composant générique pour des cartes géographiques et un cadre applicatif pour les applications KDE. Le composant Marble affiche la Terre comme une sphère mais ne nécessite pas d'accélération graphique. Un jeu de données géographiques minimal est inclus, il peut donc être utilisé sans connexion internet.

Ce paquet fait partie du module KDE éducation.

MTKBabel is a command line program to operate the i-Blue 747 GPS data logger. It should work also with other GPS devices based on the MediaTek MTK chipset. For instance the Holux M-241 GPS data logger, the Holux M-1200E, as well as the 747 A+ GPS Trip Recorder, are also known to work.

The main features are:

• Command line interface
• Save data log in GPX and raw binary format
• If required retrieve all the data, also the old one being overlapped
• Change logging criteria: time, distance, speed
• Change log format
• START/STOP logging
• Set OVERLAP or STOP method on memory full
• Erase the internal memory

Navit is a car navigation system with routing engine.

Its modular design is capable of using vector maps of various formats for routing and rendering of the displayed map. It's even possible to use multiple maps at a time.

The GTK+ or SDL user interfaces are designed to work well with touch screen displays. Points of Interest of various formats are displayed on the map.

The current vehicle position is either read from gpsd or directly from NMEA GPS sensors.

The routing engine not only calculates an optimal route to your destination, but also generates directions and even speaks to you using speech-dispatcher.

The Debian packaging for navit doesn't provide any map. To see, where you can get maps from, see http://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Main_Page#Maps.

This package contains the GTK+ GUI plugin.

OBDII is a standard for getting diagnostic information from your car. The main tool, obdgpslogger, is a command-line tool to log that data, with your gps position, to a sqlite database. Provided alongside are various tools used to convert logs to formats such as CSV or Google Earth KML. Also contained in the package is an OBDII and ELM327 simulator, obdsim, that uses plugins to generate data.

OpenBmap is a free and open map of wireless communicating objects (e.g. cellular antenna, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth). It provides tools to mutualize data, create and access this map.

The purpose of this software is to log GSM data, together with GPS coordinate. The result can be sent to their website, in order to build a free database. They store GPS quality, speed, GSM signal strength, etc. to keep a high quality of data.

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.

This package provides a versatile tool for GPS maps in GeoTiff format as well as Garmin's img vector map format. You can also view and edit your GPX tracks. QMapShack is the successor of QLandkarteGT.

Main features:

• Use of several workspaces.
• Use several maps on a workspace.
• Handle data project-oriented.

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.
