[OSGeo-Discuss] Finding position based on horizon profile?

[andrea antonello]

Hi, I can't remember the project exactly, but I think I saw do

http://tev.fbk.eu/marmota/eagleeye/
They usually are keen to open source, but I am not sure if that is the
case here. In case you would have to contact them.
