Hi, Hamish, thanks for your suggestion about fixing the GPS Babel application issue. It worked and now I can run the module.
I am back with another issue, again ' v.in.gpsbabel' module! My GPS unit records data in UTM projection with WGS84 datum. I just attempted to import the waypoints into GRASS using a Garmin MapSource text (tab delimited) file. I did not check -k flag (do not transform from WGS84). I kept the format box in the Required tab in default and provided PROJ.4 parameter for UTM [ +proj=utm +zone=36 +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +units=m +no_defs ] in the Proj box of the Required tab, since this module assumes lat/long projection with WGS84 datum. Here are the error messages I receive: Loading Waypoints from </Users/barikan2/Grmn.txt>... [ERROR] SERIAL: tcgetattr error: Inappropriate ioctl for device [ERROR] Cannot open serial port '/Users/barikan2/Grmn.txt' GARMIN:Can't init /Users/barikan2/Grmn.txt /Users/barikan2/Desktop/GRASS-6.5.app/Contents/MacOS/scripts /v.in.gpsbabel: line 263: /Users/barikan2/grassdata/TR_WGS84_36N/PERMANENT/.tmp /Bulent-Arikans-iMac.local/1470.0.xcsv: No such file or directory /Users/barikan2/Desktop/GRASS-6.5.app/Contents/MacOS/scripts /v.in.gpsbabel: line 263: [: : integer expression expected ERROR: Error loading data from gpsbabel I used few other Garmin file formats such as Garmin Points of Interest (.gpi) and Garmin MapSource (.mps) and the result does not change. I assume I am doing something wrong with the Projection detail! I will appreciate suggestions/advice. Thanks, -- BÜLENT
