GPLIGC is a program for analyzing IGC flight data from GNSS flight data recorders used by glider pilots. It uses Perl/Tk and gnuplot. The openGLIGCexplorer (written in C++) allows one to view the data in 3D with OpenGL, and can also be used as a digital elevation model terrain viewer. It can also be used for off-screen rendering of 2D and 3D images of flight tracks or terrain/map data.

Recent releases


Changes: Calibration of the altitude has been improved. Options for storing additional information for each igc-file have been added. A new oxygen debriefing might be interesting for those addicted to wave flying. Some bugs have been fixed.


Changes: kml and gpx export were added for GPLIGC. openGLIGCexplorer can be compiled with gcc-4.3 now. Many bugfixes and new options were added for offscreen rendering with openGLIGCexplorer.


Changes: This release fixes a few bugs. Some options were added that allow you to specify a destination folder and filenames for screenshots. The background colors (including gradients) can be changed.


Changes: Apart from a lot of bugfixes and minor feature enhancements, some new functions have been implemented, such as the photo-locator. The geographical position of photographs can be determined using the GPS track-log and the EXIF time-stamp of the digital camera.


Changes: GPLIGC was adapted to Perl/Tk 804.027. Onlinecontest optimization functions were extended to DMSt and holc. Flight claims can be done more easily, since some data is directly put in the olc flight-claim form. openGLIGCexplorer's full-scene rotation functions were improved. The follow mode can also be used in 2D, and airspaces can be selected by type. Furthermore, compiling should be possible with gcc 3.4.
A simple tool for managing the urge to do "just one more thing".
