Free map software for linux

Maps project is a topographal map and aerial photo generator and viewer.

Maps allows users to generate topographical maps and aerial photographs of any region in the United States.

It uses data provided by the USGS through the geoserver system.

The interactive view lets you move around, zoom in and out, and locate named geographical features.

SILC Map is an utility which can be used to visualize the topology of a SILC network. This project can create maps which indicate the exact global position of the servers and it can create HTML pages out of the information it gathers from the servers.

It is also possible to create a HTML map page which allows the user to click the servers on the map image to get more detailed information of the server. The links between the routers and servers can also be drawn on the map image.

GD::Map is Perl extension for creating geographic map files with GD.

SYNOPSIS

use GD::Map;
my $m = GD::Map:new(
basemap_path => "[required]",
output_path => "[required]",
verbose => 1,
);
$m->set_basemap("northamerica");
$m->add_object(id => "route", type => "line", color => "255,0,0");
$m->add_data(
id => "route",
start_long => 123.1,
end_long => 124.7,
start_lat => 49.3,
end_lat => 37.5,
);
$m->draw();

my $filename = "$m->{filename}.png";
my $w = $m->{map_width};
my $h = $m->{map_height};

ABSTRACT

Perl extension for creating geographic map files with GD

NestedMap is a module to make nesting map{}s inside map{}s easierc.

SYNOPSIS

# show all combinations of (A,B,C) (a,b,c) and (1,2,3)
print join("n",
nestedmap {
nestedmap {
nestedmap {
join(,@NestedMap::stack[0..2])
} qw(A B C)
} qw(a b c)
} qw(1 2 3)
);

# a zip() function for any number of lists of varying length
sub zipn {
my @args = @_;
[
nestedmap {
nestedmap {
defined($args[$_][$NestedMap::stack[1]]) ?
$args[$_][$NestedMap::stack[1]] :

} 0..$#args
} 0 .. max(map { $#{$_[$_]} } 0..$#args)
]
}

NB - older versions of perl may not like the code blocks I use in these examples.

You may have to use:

nestedmap sub { ... }, @list;

instead of

nestedmap { ... } @list;

See the test suite for examples of the above code modified to use that syntax.

easygmap is an online map builder to create simple, easy-to-use maps with Google Maps.

The project allows the user to add markers to the map and optionally giving each marker a name, description, and picture. The finished map can then be sent to the email address of the users choice.

Mila Ajax Map is an AJAX Web application witch can be used with a Web browser to display a network map with monitoring functions.
How Install
- You need apache, python, python gadfly and cup of coffee.
- At first you need create gadfly db with create_db.py.
- You need determine x and y coordinates for your nodes.
- For each x and y determine node center, i.e x = node x + gif-image size/2. This is center of image. y has same option.
- Write now connections in map.html with jg.drawLine(x,y,x2,y2).
- Write custom tooltips for each node in map.html.
- You can use rrdtools for creating round-trip-time or traffic graffics(see demo page).
- Then copy all from "cgi-bin" and "htdocs" dirs to your apache dirs.
- Add poller.py to crontab (and script for rrd, if you use it). Open http://your.host/map.html and relax.
- You can customize scripts as you want.
Enhancements:
- Changes were made in JavaScript support.

Puzzle Maps is a software version of the Montessori Puzzle Maps activity.

Puzzle Maps presents users with a choice of maps in which they can remove and replace the various countries or states that make up the map.

In this way, they familiarize themselves with the geography of the world.

GMap is a Map editor for GPS maps that runs on linux. This project is a work in progress. GMap reads various formats and writes .mp polish map format files suitable for compiling using the cgpsmapper compiler.
I also have some notes relating to the use of GPS tools on Linux and the use of cGPSmapper on Linux and M$-Windows.
Currently the development is at an alpha stage. However it is starting to provide some basic funtionality so there is a copy here for anyone that wants to play.
Note that this is the only doc there is at the moment, it is incomplete and may also be slightly out of sync with the uploaded executable.
Main features:
- Display tracks and area (POLYLINE/POLYGON) features.
- Some POI support
- Editing of track and area features.
- Limited UNDO, currently should handle add, delete and move points. Split tracks. Convert a track to an area feature. Dont rely on it. Save often.
- Read and write data data to Polish format map data files. These are suitable for feeding to the cGPSmapper map compiler.
- Read tracks and waypoints from ".gpx" files (from gpsbabel or mapsource uploads)
- Read Tracks and points from google earth ".kml" files (not .kmz)
- Saves to named file or first input file. Original input is renamed to oldname;version (eg gmap fred.mp -> save renames to fred.mp;1 etc)
- Holds 2 sets of map data, one as a reference which is not written out. You can merge as many files as you like on read.
- Some handling of things with holes.
- Map warping. Allows you to warp one set of map data so it aligns correctly with another set of data. Example being to fix data estimated from images or maps against correct ground tracks.
- Knows something about the world being curved.
- Can read tracks, waypoints and current position from my garmin GPSMap 60CSx and a ForeRunner301
