Oh Joy, something new to learn...  :-)

I actually don't have enough planning to realize the potential with PostGIS. Now if I can include a photo of the point that would help. Someone suggested EasyGeotagger, but it seems to be standalone.

thanks for all your input.

Tom

Hi Tom,

For a bit more power & flexibility, load your GPS points into a POstGIS database, and create columns based on criteria such as reliability that you can use to set the size/colour/symbol.

PostGIS gives you useful tools to query & manage the data & QGIS gives you the ability to use PostGIS columns to control symbology.
