gpsfetchmap(1) Download maps from a mapserver.

OPTIONS

-w, --waypoint <WAYPOINT NAME>
Takes a waypoint name and uses the latitude and longitude for that waypoint as the centerpoint of the area to be covered. Waypoints are read from 'way.txt', or file defined by '-W'. the special name gpsd asks your local gpsd where your gps thinks you are and uses this point as center. This, '-la' and '-lo', '-sla', '-ela', '-slo' and '-elo' or '-a' is required. A special name is gpsd this waypoint asks your gps where you currently are.
-la, --lat <latitude DD.MMMM>
Takes a latitude in format DD.MMMM and uses that as the latitude for the centerpoint of the area to be covered. Will be overriden by the latitude of waypoint if '-w' is used. This and '-lo', '-w' or '-sla', '-ela', '-slo', '-elo' is required.
-lo, --lon <longitude DD.MMMM>
Takes a longitude in format DD.MMMM and uses that as the longitude for the centerpoint of the area to be covered. Will be overriden by the longitude of waypoint if '-w' is used. This and '-la', '-w' or '-sla', '-ela', '-slo', '-elo' is required.
-sla --start-lat <start latitude DD.MMMM>
Takes a latitude in format DD.MMMM and uses that as the start latitude for the area to be covered. Will override '-la' and '-lo' but will be overriden by '-w'. This, '-ela', '-slo' and '-elo' or '-w' or '-la' and '-lo' is required.
-ela --end-lat <end latitude DD.MMMM>
Takes a latitude in format DD.MMMM and uses that as the end latitude for the area to be covered. Will override '-la' and '-lo' but will be overriden by '-w'. This, '-sla', '-slo' and '-elo' or '-w' or '-la' and '-lo' is required.
-slo --start-lon <start longitude DD.MMMM>
Takes a longitude in format DD.MMMM and uses that as the start longitude for the area to be covered. Will override '-la' and '-lo' but will be overriden by '-w'. This, '-sla', '-ela' and '-elo' or '-w' or '-la' and '-lo' is required.
-elo --end-lon <end longitude DD.MMMM>
Takes a longitude in format DD.MMMM and uses that as the end longitude for the area to be covered. Will override '-la' and '-lo' but will be overriden by '-w'. This, '-sla', '-ela' and '-slo' or '-w' or '-la' and '-lo' is required.
-sc, --scale <SCALE>

   '####-####'       
   - All scales from first to last number given.
-a, --area <#>
Area to cover. # of 'units' size square around the centerpoint. You can use a single number for square area. Or you can use '#x#' to do a rectangle, where the first number is distance latitude and the second number is distance of longitude. 'units' is read from the configuration file (-C) or as defined by (-u).
-p, --polite
This causes the program to sleep one second between downloads to be polite to the mapserver. Takes an optional value of number of seconds to sleep.
--mapserver <MAPSERVER>

landsat covers the whole world with satelite Photos

gov_au is for Australia

incrementp for japanese Maps

eniro covers:
 eniro_se Sweden
 eniro_dk Denmark
 eniro_no Norway

-W, --WAYPOINT <FILE>

--check-koordfile
Update map_koord.txt: search map Tree if map_*.gif file exist, but cannot be found in map_koords.txt file. This option first reads the map_koord.txt file and checks every Map in the filesystem if it also is found in the map_koord.txt file. If not found it is appended into the map_koord.txt file.

Check map_koord.txt File. This option checks, if every Map also exist If any Map-File is missing, a file map_koord.txt.new will be created. This file can be copied to the original file if checked.

--check-coverage
See which areas the maps cover. Output is simple ASCII Art

Set proxy for mirroring image Files
-d, --debug
