Automatically geocode pictures from your camera and a GPS track log. Following Google code closure the only official webpage is (doc, support, code) : https://github.com/notfrancois/GPicSync

openBmap collects data and provides open maps and statistics of all communicating objects: cellular antennas, wifi hotspots. All softwares from back-end to client are open-source under AGPL v3 license.

TopoGen is a small PyGTK application which will make a topographic image overlay for Google Earth using the given coordinate boundaries.

The Geocanvas project aims to provide a very small and simple set of APIs to assist the developer in creating geographically referenced canvas applications within the GTK/Gnome environment.

Warning: I found an error if the DR position is on the southern hemisphere. The PUB249 pdf files did not show this error and are correct (as far as I checked). All Revisions 8+ and the Windows release have been fixed. This Python TK application calculates a good set of stars for a 3 star fix, makes all calculations similar to the FAAs Celestial Computation Sheet (see FAA doc FAA-H-8083-18). Also, you can create a PDF file that generates Pub 249 Vol 1 for any epoch you specify. The PUB249 as PDF is found under "Files". I wrote this for my aircraft bubble octant :-) It is mainly useful for air navigation as it assumes a bubble sextant but may be used for normal sextants as well. Requires Ephem and ReportLab (optional for PDF output) Not to be used for real-world navigation!

LAnd Survey Tools "LAST" was created to preserve and expand on the work invested in an old, privately used, DOS based land survey construction and data collection application by porting much of the C++ coded logic and design concept over to Python.

openModeller is a complete C++ framework for species potential distribution modelling. The project also includes a graphical user interface, a web service interface and an API for Python.

A cross-platform aplication to explore online free maps (OpenStreetMap). Build with python and pygame, full immersive environnement. Actually only source code, require pygame.

Croizat is a free, user-friendly, cross-platform desktop software package which biologists can use to integrate and analyze spatial data on species or other taxa and to explore geographical patterns in diversity under a panbiogeographic and graph-theoretic approach.

AIS Logger is a simple viewer and logger for data received by AIS-transponders or -receivers.

The aim of this project is to translate the geostatistical BMELib Matlab Toolbox (http://www.unc.edu/depts/case/BMELIB/) into Python.

Python script for Geocachers. Takes GPX file (eg from Geotoad), downloads waypoints to Garmin Etrex, and produces OpenOffice quick-reference document with the descriptions and hints.

CitySpeed is a Python package that uses online mapping services to gather statistics on the efficiency and complexity of road networks. This can be used to create maps showing how fast you can drive around a particular city.

FastVersion is a Qgis plugin for data versioning in a Postgis database. This plugin provides data versioning to tables with geometry stored in postgis. It allows to create, changes and eliminate versions, and within each version , to insert, modify and eliminate elements. It is possible carry out the processes of “post” from one version to another, with conflict resolution functionality. The system uses algorithms and data structures so that information is not duplicated each time a version is created. We recommend downloading it from the Qgis app. Plugins->Manage and Install Plugins->Settings->Show also experimental plugins Plugins->Manage and Install Plugins->Search FastVersion If downloaded from sourceforge, it must be unzipped in \.qgis2\python\plugins

Fielddata Mgr Overview This is a Python program, which means that one must install the open source freely available Python interpreter and a few required also open source, freely available modules that support the functionality of the program. The program "Fielddata Mgr", is customized for the Rick survey department, in such that it supports up to 9 chiefs, each having their own folder in one location, 2 supervisers, each with a PC on the network, and access to a main server. Each day, the .RAW file is copied to the appropriate chiefs folder and when Fielddata Mgr is run, or the reload button is clicked, all .RAW files are listed along with a long list of all job folders existing in a designated location, and a short list of frequently accessed jobs that are selected from within the long list. When a .RAW file is selected, the contents are read, interpreted, and the results displayed within the program window. For remaining information please read the info sht.

GISBox by Citiviz is a ready-to-use virtual appliance containing an assortment of powerful, free and open source GIS, Data Mining and Analysis, Modelling and Programming software and packages. The pre-configured and tested GISBox allows you to try and use in few minutes a variety of software used by data scientists, engineers, physicists, mathematicians, geomatics engineers, and geographers from around the globe, without installing anything more than once the Oracle VirtualBox™ software (https://www.virtualbox.org/) on your Linux, Windows or Mac computer. The GISBox is free and open, allowing it to be freely distributed, duplicated and passed around, even with your own datasets and in-house applications.

GPS Navigation System is a software that aids in navigating through important cities.

gpsdb automatically generates websites from your gps track files, enabling you to quickly and easily share your gps data.

Graphical tool for managing database of geocaches and waypoints, importing GPX files and exporting geocaches to many formats including GPX, POI, HTML and others.

Geotag Merge is designed to combine track data from a GPS unit with EXIF data in a series of photographs. A handheld GPS can be simply carried while taking photos, and the photos can later be automatically gettagged (by matching timestamps).

This object-oriented python module converts 3D VRML models into Collada and integrates it in Google Earth (GE) through the Keyhole Markup Language (KML). It enables the visualisation of large scale aerial/satellite images in the Geo Browser.

This script analyzes a GPS-tracklog to find the position where digital images were taken. It's main objectives are to embed this position into the EXIF-data and to display the images in Google Earth.

Liegkat-Archiv delivers ALK converters for spatial data formats (EDBS, BGRUND, SQD, DFK, HK) and coordinate systems used in German cadastral agencies before ALKIS into KML and JML. It delivers Python packages and XSL files.

mapframer is a commandline program that reads a map frame specification from an XML-file and outputs a map frame to a PDF-file.
