[OSGeo-Discuss] open source alternative to tracking analyst

[Vicente Martins]

Hi David, welcome!

You can use the GRASS GIS[1] for your studies. It's a software robust, and
enables you perform several actions. Together with QGIS[2], you can use with
more facility in visualize your data, and manage them.

Sorry for my small inglish.

Good Job.
