How about converting the "splat" output from each repeater
into Multi-line objects that can be injected into an Xastir
server port.
With the above info in a database, it may be easier to just have
the user enter their location on a web page and get back an
estimation of what repeaters will likely be reachable given
their power/antenna characteristics.

Hello,
I've been working on a sort of collaborative repeater database /
mapping
project (k5ehx.net/repeaters). I was trying to come up with some
form of
link into APRS, my first idea was a query service to return
repeaters near
the origin of the query. Bob pointed me toward the "Local Info"
initiative,
and so I've been trying to figure out a way to do that. It appears
that
Xastir has a persistent object file format, and so I've made an
exporter for
that format based on an example file.
My question is whether anyone has any pointers. My goal is some
simple way
to get repeater information from my database into Xastir, preferably
for
"not necessarily tech savvy" users.
Thanks and 73,
Tom White, K5EHX
