GPS introduction

GPS. Official OziExplorer Web Site - GPS Mapping Software for Tracking and Navigation. Supports Garmin, Magellan, Lowrance and GPS. GPSBabel: convert, upload, download data from GPS and Map programs. CyberTracker GPS Field Data Collection System - Home. GME | SpatialEcology.Com. Overview The promise of GIS has always been that it would allow us to obtain better answers to our questions. But this is only possible if we have tools that allows us to perform rigorous quantitative analyses designed for spatial data. The Geospatial Modelling Environment (GME) is a platform designed to help to facilitate rigorous spatial analysis and modelling. GME provides you with a suite of analysis and modelling tools, ranging from small 'building blocks' that you can use to construct a sophisticated work-flow, to completely self-contained analysis programs.

It also uses the extraordinarily powerful open source software R as the statistical engine to drive some of the analysis tools. One of the many strengths of R is that it is open source, completely transparent and well documented: important characteristics for any scientific analytical software. GME incorporates most of the functionality of its predecessor, HawthsTools, but with some important improvements. GeoLab Software: BitWise Ideas Inc. Free geocoders: Convert addresses to GPS coordinates. 1. Geocode a single address If you only need to find the coordinates of a single location, use GPS Visualizer's Quick Geocoder. This utility returns a small map and a nicely formatted table of information. 2. Geocode multiple addresses If you have a large batch of addresses for which you need coordinates, GPS Visualizer's Multiple Address Locator is the solution.

This form allows you to geocode an large number of addresses using the geocoding API service from Bing Maps, Google, or MapQuest. NOTE: If your data consists entirely of ZIP codes, Canadian postal codes, airport codes, states, or countries, use the converter described below in #3, or go straight to the map form. 3. Not only will the mapper or converter be faster, but you can also take advantage of features like the quantitative data form, which can colorize or resize your data points based on frequency or other parameters.
