Summary:
C: GPS data editor, analyzer and viewer
Description:
C: >-
<p>Viking aims to be easy to use, yet powerful in accomplishing a
wide variety of GPS related tasks. It uses a hierarchical layering
system to organize GPS data, maps, and other layer types with
spatial data, such as coordinate lines.</p>
<p>Some of the things you can use Viking for are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Uploading and downloading waypoints, tracks to/from GPS.</li>
<li>Realtime GPS tracking and track recording.</li>
<li>Import and export of gpx files.</li>
<li>Preparing tracks and waypoints for trips using maps from
services such as OpenStreetmap and Terraserver. You only need to
upload the data to your GPS before you leave. The maps together
with your tracks and waypoints can also be printed and used
during the trip.</li>
<li>After trips, tracks and waypoints from GPS can be
downloaded, stored, managed and reused in later trips.</li>
<li>Analyzing OHV and hiking trips, understanding where you went
and how far you were from something.</li>
<li>Making waypoints and tracks to follow to easily get
someplace you've never been before or don't have GPS data for
but Terraserver maps exist for it.</li>
<li>Making maps with coordinate lines.</li>
<li>Analyzing speed at different places, adding waypoints where
you forgot to mark one but did slow down or stop.</li>
</ul>
