GPS + Python + POI database + sqlite - small project , need your help

Hi,

just completed 2 projecvts, in Semantic Multimedia and Geolocation.
Now need your help and advice in pursuing
GPS + Python + POI + sqlite - non-GUI project.

Now I need to learn how to read GPS data from gpsd Python ?)
process them and save into db as a track,
build POI database and more

Maemo-mapper already does all the above,
unfortunately it is one-man closed project, assissted by Cezary (POI database).

Please tell me know to start.
- GPS data acquisition
data logging as xml file (parser)

Than I need to build a basic database logging gps data + some instrument
data like sound level, temperature, sun intensity level and more
to make Google Maps.

Your comments, advise, help is welcome.

Darius

Re: GPS + Python + POI database + sqlite - small project , need your help [In reply to]

Thanks.
But I need to start from the basics, logging GPS data into a file.
Maemo-mapper is great project, application.
I still wonder why nobody developed new features to fit it.

So shell script application only.
GPSD update from http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/maemo/developers/31553
is not installable under OS2007HE

Source for gpsd already installed with maemo-mapper
http://gpsd.berlios.de/

Python GIS
http://www.pygps.org/

GPSDrive
http://www.gpsdrive.de/download.shtml

GPS Navigator
http://www.gnustep.it/enrico/position/

and finally Kismet,
http://www.kismetwireless.net/

Any chance to have Kismet to work with gpsd and log gps data in xml format - OS2007HE ?

Frankly speaking would welcome to see third party application enhancement to maemo-mapper, based on the below source code.
There is a long list of features I would like to be incorporated,
to make maemo-mapper No.1 in GPS navigation (free open source) one day.

Hey,

There are some reasons why gpsd might not be the best for resource
constrained devices. I have successfully used gypsy before and i wrote
up what i did here (for Ubuntu Mobile, but there is no reason why this
would not work on arm too):

Re: GPS + Python + POI database + sqlite - small project , need your help [In reply to]

Thanks.
I would like to see it working on maemo.
Personally have to start with Kismet as it already saves gps in xml file format.
I can remove other data entries and parse xml with txt file logging data from measuring instrument on another device.

Now sure if kismet supports gps logging under OS2007HE.

Thanks.
Darius
