[GRASSLIST:4043] Re: v.in.garmin

[trivial import of vector lines from a Garmin GPS]

The v.in.garmin.sh in GRASS 5.3 is finally updated to automatically
transform waypoints, routes, and/or track data into the current
projection. All features are imported as lines, if you import multiple
features they connect end-to-end. If you want point input instead of
lines, use s.in.garmin.sh.

Automatic projection only works from WGS84 lat/lon GPS input, and can 
be easily disabled. You need to install gpstrans from gpstrans.sf.net.


A more advanced version for 5.7 is in the works ..



enjoy,
