GPSRouteX Features

GPSRouteX is loaded with GPS routing and navigation features such as:

• display current GPS time (UTC and local), position, and velocity data
• display satellites in view and in use
• user-selectable units for distance, speed, altitude
• display distance, bearing, desired track (DTK), velocity-made-good (VMG), estimated time enroute (ETE), and estimated time of arrival (ETA) to selected waypoint
• display cross-track error as numeric distance, and as an aviation-style "course deviation indicator" with selectable sensitivity
• create one or more data files of Waypoints using any latitude/longitude format (degrees, minutes, seconds, any combination of decimal fractions)
• import Waypoints from Google Earth KML or GPX files
• create custom routes from defined waypoints
• import routes from Google Earth KML (perfect for importing driving directions!) or GPX files
• activate a selected route segment, or auto-locate on the nearest route segment based on current GPS position
• auto-sequence along route: as you pass one waypoint, the next route segment activates
• reverse a route with one click
• display total distance remaining to end of route and destination ETA
• user-selectable alerts of waypoint arrival
• optional Growl notifications and spoken warnings:
  • fix acquisition
  • waypoint arrival
  • loss of fix
  • course reversal
• choose spoken waypoint names or comments at waypoint arrival - turn Google Earth driving directions into turn-by-turn spoken directions from your laptop!
• list nearest waypoints to current position
• export your waypoints and routes to Google Earth KML files, or export all your open routes and waypoints at once to one GPX file
• choose GPSd's preferred GPS connection protocol - NMEA if you need to use the GPS with other devices, or Binary mode for enhanced performance (if available)
• floating MiniNav window to integrate GPSRouteX's route navigation with other programs for moving map display
• synchronise your system clock to GPS time - accurate time anywhere in the world!

Combine GPSRouteX with gpsdX (included), gps2geX and Google Earth for a complete GPS navigation and "moving map" solution.
