After considering the various options and permutations I decided to work with MyGPS one of the few uncrippled freeware applications. But I don't think you have to understand these things in detail in order to produce something useful. I'm struggling to grasp the intricacies of geodetic datums, cartesian reference system, transverse mercator projections and so on. Now remember I'm a complete novice at GPS and much of the functionality of these applications remains a mystery to me.

Here's a list of the software - with a variety of different licenses attached - that I've downloaded and tried out over the last few weeks.

Now I'm not one of those people who expects to get everthing for nothing in the software world but in the spirit of building an open source free map of Ireland I think its best to create a framework which can avail of as many free tools as possible so as to make the publication and consumption of OpenEir data as.
One thing I've learned, to my disappointment, is that there really isn't the breadth and depth of shareware/freeware GPS software out there that I was expecting to see. I'm sure there as many ways of going about building an Open Source map of Ireland as there are formats for storing GPS data, and as a GPS newbie I'm probably going about this the wrong way completely but there's nothing like diving in head first so here's a proposal and attempted bootstrap for one approach.
