Hi, I made a very quick test and here are first results:
- Installation was successful by following the instructions. It means, unzip. Easy. - Virtual serial port must exist before launching OpenJUMP. If OJ is running and virtual serial port is created later the plugin will not find it. - Adding points successful. You can add point to any editable OpenJUMP layer. Just select the layer and add a point. Simple. - EX Buttons is a good pair with GPS plugin because it gives a button and shortcut key for adding points. EZ Buttons cannot show the status of GPS plugin, though. Pressing a button does not do anything if GPS tracking in not active, naturally. - I can't guess what "Set task to track" should do. Now I am not sure if it is doing anything. - "Insert point from GPS" is a bit odd tool. User must have a line or polygon selected and then the plugin inserts more points somewhere in between the geometry. I would have more use for Start digitising a line/polygon tool without a need to have something ready on a map. Now I think I would measure an area by adding just points from GPS and digitising a polygon manually with snapping on later. -Jukka Rahkonen- -----Alkuperäinen viesti----- Lähettäjä: edgar.sol...@web.de [mailto:edgar.sol...@web.de] Lähetetty: su 25.7.2010 21:10 Vastaanottaja: OpenJump develop and use; openjump-us...@googlegroups.com Aihe: [JPP-Devel] gps extension release candidate With some delay, I expected to have it done earlier, you might find an updated version of the gps extension on sourceforge. http://sourceforge.net/projects/jump-pilot/files/p_GPS%20Extension/ Features are: - use of serial gps devices (garmin,nmea,sirf) - tracking of selected tasks - creating/adding points from gps coordinate I'd appreciate anybody testing the extension and coming back with feedback or bugs. A known limitation right now is that reprojection of gps coordinates is broken (cts extension usage). This means coordinates from gps will for now always be in the datum of the gps receiver is configured to output. I am working it. .. kind regards ede ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
