Beta test Geotagalog 1.2 to try NMEA and Training Center support
2009 April 24We are designing Geotagalog to have the fastest, easiest geotagging workflow available. While GPX is a great GPS data exchange format, some of the handiest loggers on the market record location data in an older format known as NMEA 0183. Garmin's handheld receivers are also quite popular, but most of the units officially supported on the Mac are sports fitness devices. It's possible to convert files from both to the GPX standard — but that adds extra steps, extra hassle and an extra file. We're adding direct support for both NMEA logs and Garmin Training Center files to Geotagalog 1.2, which is available as a public beta today.
Current changes in Geotagalog 1.2 (beta) include:
- Reads GPS log data in NMEA 0183 (.nmea/.nme/.gps/.log/.txt) format
- Reads Garmin Training Center (.tcx) history data
- Ability to open tracklogs with Geotagalog from the Finder
- Some minor interface glitches fixed
We've successfully tested with files from the AMOD AGL3080, the Sony GPS-CS3 and a few others. We'd appreciate feedback, so download Geotagalog 1.2 and let us know how it works with your tracklogs. Please include details about what device you used, and thanks in advance!
