FreeBSD - Linux C Based Program to Read a Serial Port
Submitted by parkviewadmin on Wed, 2012-11-21 22:19.Back in 2007 or so I wrote a C program to read my TP-200 serial port based GPS unit. I was supprised to find that in 2012, the same program would compile on a Raspberry Pi Linux environment! Go POSIX programming.
Attached is the C code file and my Makefile I use to compile it. Use at your own risk. It works for me, but maybe not you? To use it, I just run ./gps > gps_data_file-20121121.txt and a number of lines will be written to the file each second.

Displaying iPhone Photographs in Quantum GIS
Submitted by parkviewadmin on Wed, 2012-06-20 20:55.I have been playing with the Quantum GIS software and using it to record some botanical field information I have been collecting. After I had played around with the PHP scripts on this page: http://www.bdug.org.au/node/193 I thought it would be interesting to see a visual representation of where the photos had been taken, much like people had done in Google Earth etc. I could also use it to see what photographs I had taken with the iPhone out on my survey site.
