Free and Open Source Tools for GPS Data Management and Analysis

This poster highlights methods for dealing with large amounts of spatial data generated from GPS tracking technology, specifically focusing on Free and Open Source software. The advantages to using Free and Open Source software are it is inexpensive (free), works on any operating system, uses open data formats, and has a large and friendly community for help. Examples below demonstrate how to use a combination of Spatialite1, Quantum GIS (QGIS)4, R5 and Python3 for an inter-connected system of data storage, visualization, analysis, and automation.
