30 Description: visualize, edit, convert and prune GPS data
31 GpsPrune is an application for viewing, editing and converting coordinate
32 data from GPS systems. It's a tool for preparing GPS data before you go on a
33 trip, and for playing with your collected GPS data after you get home again.
35 It can load data from arbitrary text-based formats (for example, any
36 tab-separated or comma-separated file) or XML, or directly from a GPS
37 receiver. It can display the data (as map view using OpenStreetMap
38 images and as altitude profile), edit this data (for example delete
39 points and ranges, sort waypoints, compress tracks), and save the data
40 (in various text-based formats). It can also export data as a GPX
41 file, or as KML/KMZ for import into Google Earth, or send it to a GPS
44 Some example uses of GpsPrune include cleaning up tracks by deleting
45 wayward points - either recorded by error or by unintended detours. It
46 can also be used to compare and combine tracks, convert to and from
47 various formats, compress tracks, export data to Google Earth, or to
48 analyse data to calculate distances, altitudes and so on.
50 Furthermore, GpsPrune is able to display the tracks in 3d format and
51 lets you spin the model round to look at it from various directions.
52 You can also export the model in POV format so that you can render a
53 nice picture using Povray. You can also create charts of altitudes or
54 speeds. It can also load Jpegs and read their coordinates from the
55 EXIF tags, and export thumbnails of these photos to Kmz format so that
56 they appear as popups in Google Earth. If your photos don't have
57 coordinates yet, GpsPrune can be used to connect them (either manually or
58 automatically using the photo timestamps) to data points, and write
59 these coordinates into the EXIF tags.
