GNSS

Sistemas Globais de Navegação por Satélite em inglês Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) trata-se de um termo genérico para referir os sistemas de navegação por satélite. Neste momento existem dois sistemas a operar, o GPS (Norte-americano) e o GLONASS (Russo). Encontram-se, ainda outros dois em desenvolvimento, o Galileo / Galileo (Europeu) e o Compass ou BeiDou (Chinês) (Wikipédia). Está também em desenvolvimento o Sistema Indiano Regional de Navegação  IRNSS NAVIC e o Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) no Japão.

WinGDB3
WinGDB3 provides additional powerful features for Garmin’s MapSource. The primary function of WinGDB3 is the conversion of waypoints, routes and tracks, e.g. via points to waypoints, routes to tracks and tracks to routes. It uses the MapSource internal GDB format. GDB versions 1, 2 and 3 are supported. A route or track, manipulated by WinGDB3, is often more useful than the standard MapSource files, for many GPS applications. WinGDB3 is a general applicable program and has not been specialized for a particular type Garmin GPS receiver. Some receivers have no or a limited TracBack function (like e.g. the Quest and Nüvi) and then it can be useful to convert a track to a route. Other receivers (like the GPSMAP 60) will always recalculate routes and then a conversion of a route to a track makes sense. Sometimes it may be useful to make via points invisible to avoid an excess of flags and spoken texts at the receiver (Zumo, Nüvi). Apart from the conversion functions WinGDB3 also has a number of possibilities to adjust the size of the obtained routes and/or tracks to the characteristics of the GPS receiver. This is called filtering. If you specify the maximum number of route- and/or trackpoints your GPS receiver supports WinGDB3 will assure that the route or track always fits. For very big routes there is a possibility to split routes into smaller segments.
Other characteristics of WinGDB3 are:
  • Multiple language support (English, Dutch, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Spanish, Turkish, Czech, Hungarian).
  • Importing tracks from gpx, crs ,tcx, fit, kml, kmz, itn and nmea/nma/log files
  • Support of the Edge 500, 605, 705 and 800 and courses as output in tcx files
  • Conversion of routes and tracks with the clipboard of MapSource or BaseCamp
