Small demo for tkgeomap
xeartk is a tkgeomap application that uses the geomap::wdgeomap command
to create an interactive map. The geographic data is from the xearth
root window program. by Kirk Lauritz Johnson in an interactive widget.
xeartk is not part of and does not require xearth. It only uses the
outline data defined in file mapdata.c of the xearth source
distribution. The cities are from factmonster.
Adjust the map view by Shift-Double-Clicking or Shift-Dragging. Double
click a dot to display information about the city there on the terminal.
Interactive astronomical ephemeris program
Xephem is an interactive astronomical ephemeris program for X Windows
systems. It ...
computes heliocentric, geocentric and topocentric information for fixed
celestial objects and objects in heliocentric and geocentric orbits;
has built-in support for all planet positions; the moons of Jupiter, Saturn
and Earth; Mars' and Jupiter's central meridian longitude; Saturn's rings;
and Jupiter's Great Red Spot

Displays a view of the Earth (like xearth) with a rendered photo map
Displays a rendered view of the earth in your root window, similar to
xearth, but instead uses a satellite image map of the earth. You can also
substitute surface maps of other planets if you're feeling cosmic.
Version of John Walker's classical moontool for X11/Motif
John Walker's moontool for the X11 desktop. It shows a real-time picture
of the moon phases and displays some related astronomical data about the
moon and the sun. -- This version of the program uses the Motif toolkit.
Application for viewing, editing, and converting GPS coordinate data
GpsPrune is an application for viewing, editing and converting
coordinate data from GPS systems. Basically it's a tool to let you
play with your GPS data after you get home from your trip.
It can load data from arbitrary text-based formats (for example,
any tab-separated or comma-separated file) or Xml, or directly from
a GPS receiver. It can display the data (as map view using openstreetmap
images and as altitude profile), edit this data (for example delete
points and ranges, sort waypoints, compress tracks), and save the
data (in various text-based formats). It can also export data as a
Gpx file, or as Kml/Kmz for import into Google Earth, or send it
to a GPS receiver.
Draw pictures of the earth textured by an image
Xplanet was inspired by Xearth, which renders an image of the earth into the X
root window. Xplanet uses the Imlib library to read user supplied maps of the
earth (or another planet). Orthographic and Mercator projections can be
rendered to the root window or saved to a file. An image that the user can
rotate interactively can be popped up in a window using OpenGL or Mesa.
Harmonic tide clock and tide predictor
The xtide program predicts and displays tides. It is capable of
producing output in a variety of dynamic and static formats, and has
extensions for X, plain ASCII, and HTML.
