NAME
QLandkarteGT - GPS mapping (GeoTiff and vector) and GPSr managementSYNOPSIS
qlandkartegt [ -d | --debug ] [ -h | --help ] -m FD | --monitor=FD ] [ -n | --no-splash ] [ files... ]DESCRIPTION
QLandkarteGT is a versatile tool for GPS maps in GeoTiff format as well as Garmin's img vector map format. QLandkarteGT is the successor of QLandkarte. Among various improvements (e.g. 2D/3D map rendering and reduced resource demands) the major difference is its device-independent architecture, which is not limited to Garmin devices anymore.Additionally, QLandkarteGT serves as a frontend to the GDAL tools, to make georeferencing of scanned maps feasible for users. In contrast to similar tools (e.g. QGis) its straightforward interface is especially suited for non-scientific users.
OPTIONS
QLandkarteGT currently understands the following options. Note that long options must be specified in full (by now).- -d
- --debug
- Enable additional debugging messages to standard output.
- -h
- --help
- Print a short option summary, and exit.
- -m FD
- --monitor=FD
- Monitor the file descriptor FD for activity. If any new data arrives on the descriptor, a single byte is read from it, all currently active data are discarded, and the geo data files that have been specified at the end of the command-line when starting QLandkarteGT are read and evaluated again.
- -n
- --no-splash
- Do not display the splash screen on startup.
All remaining positional arguments are considered names of geo data files to be read and evaluated upon startup.
