Josef Kleber submitted an update to the

getmap

package.

Version number: v1.6 License type: lppl

Summary description: Download OpenStreetMap, Google Maps or Google Street View maps

Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

The goal of this package is the simplest possible provision of map images (OpenStreetMap, Google Maps and Google Street View are supported). In the simplest case, the specification of an address is sufficient. The package loads the map using the write18 feature, which you must activate to use this package. The image will be downloaded by an external Lua script. You can use this script also from the command line.

License: LPPL

Changes in v1.6:

- added gpx2epl, gps2epl and gpx2gps modes to getmapdl.lua

parses gpx and gps files and outputs gps or epl (encoded polylines) to STDOUT, e.g:

getmapdl -m gpx2epl -G myroute.gpx >myroute.epl

- removed gpx2gps bash file

- updated documentation
