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>
-
Scales of map(s) to download. Default: 50000.
Formats:
'####' - Just this scale.
'####,####,####' - All scales in the list. May be combined with other formats.
'>####' - All scales above and including the number given.
'<####' - All scales below and including the number given.
'####-####' - 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>
-
Mapserver to download from. Default: 'landsat'.
Currently can use: landsat
geoscience, gov_au, incrementp and eniro have download stubs, but they are !!!NOT!!!! in the right scale.
geoscience
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
eniro_fi FinnlandOverview of Area covered by eniro_fi:
http://maps.eniro.com/servlets/fi_MapImageLocator?profile=Main¢er=26.;62.&zoomlevel=1&size=800x600 - -u, --unit <UNIT>
- The measurement system to use. Default is read from configuration file <-C>. Possibles are: miles, nautical, kilometers.
- --mapdir <DIR>
- Override the configfiles mapdir with this value.
- -W, --WAYPOINT <FILE>
- File to read waypoints from. Default: '~/.gpsdrive/way.txt'.
- -t, --track <FILE>
- Download maps that are along a saved track. File is a standard track filed saved from GpsDrive.
- -r, --route
- Download maps that are along a route defined by waypoints. You must give a list of waypoints as parameters separated with space.
- -C, --CONFIG
- File to read for GPSDrive configuration information. Default: '~/.gpsdrive/gpsdriverc'.
- -P, --PREFIX <PREFIX>
- Takes a prefix string to be used as the start of all saved map files. Default: ``map_''.
- -F, --FORCE
- Force program to download maps without asking you to confirm the download.
- -n
- Dont download anything only tell which maps are missing
- -U
- read map_koord.txt file at Start. Then also check for not downloaded map_*.gif Files if they need to be appended to map_koords.txt.
- --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
- --PROXY
- Set proxy for mirroring image Files
- -d, --debug
- Prints debugging information.
- -v, --version
- Prints version information and exits.
- --help -h -x
- Prints the usage page and exits.
- --MAN -M
- Prints the manual page and exits.
- Download
-
When downloading Maps the output reads as folows:
_ Map already exists in Filesystem E Error while downloading Map + Map got downloaded u updated map_koords.txt File S Simulate only
