GPSMan just got better

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

My last two posts described tricks I use to manipulate GPSMan data files. I communicated these techniques to the nice people who gave us GPSMan, and found out there are way to edit waypoints and tracks, as well as routes and groups, which enable grouping of points and tracks, chopping away parts of tracks, combining different tracks into larger entities, and many more useful tricks.

I think that rather than go into all of that here and now, I will write a series of mini-tutorial or mini-howto blogs, each describing some of GPSMan’s functionality and application.

About the one thing that GPSMan can’t do for me yet is exporting to KML format, which Google Earth uses. But the program’s author promised to look into that. If they do that, it will be a huge time saver for me.
