>From Middle-Europe you require a clear view nearly to the south (similar to Astra TV-satellite, look at the antennas), because the EGNOS satellites are in a geostationary orbit above Africa and from Middle-Europe-sight not too far away from Astra. For other receiving-positions look at the EGNOS satellite positions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Geostationary_Navigation_Overlay_Service#Satellites Many GPS-Loggers (i.e. Garmin, satellite view, letter "D" for DPGS) support EGNOS, because the signal is already available for a few years as "beta". Look at the description of your logger. If a satellite is not available, there is possibly another solution. I did not try it and I am not really sure. Look at http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-development/filter_track.html and look for ²DPGS". That sounds to me as if GPS-Babel could support EGNOS. If this true, you possibly can throw your track into GPS-Babel, configure it accordingly and it will automaticly fetch the EGNOS-data by internet and correct the track, assumed the time stamps in the track are correct. Otherwise do not use it. If your GPS-Logger is supported by GPS-Babel, it will also import the tracks to your PC. All that inclusive outputting your desired format (i.e. OSM compatible GPX) will be done in one turn, if you configure GPS-Babel accordingly. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
