Re: Simple GPS software?
 

I think it would be possible to save raw NMEA data in gps-saver so I could implement it also before releasing the new version. This would probably help the data import to external programs.

That's great jukkar, I must really try it out. Somehow I knew I couldn't be the only one wanting to put my tablet and GPS to such an obvious use... but it's good to see you've already done the job, and more ! Thanks.

The best thing to do might be to output it in a format that can be read by gpsbabel.

A new version of gps-saver can now be found in http://gps-saver.garage.maemo.org/
The pre-compiled debian packages for v1.7 are only for OS2008, if you want to use the program in OS2007 you have to compile the deb packages yourself.

Changes:
- works with OS2008
- new python UI for starting/stopping and monitoring GPS status
- GPS data can be saved also in NMEA format
- new -n option in gps-saver does not save the GPS data to file if the user only wishes to monitor the GPS usage. The option can be set from UI

Great stuff!

I won't install OS2008 until the official release, but I will be stress-testing gps-saver as soon as I do.

Does gtag run on the IT or on a PC after the fact? I'm hoping to tag my images on the go and upload them to flickr/panoramio directly. No PC included.
