Downgraded importance. Description: ------------ The project is not active any more and but can still be found in the webarchive.

Here the original description of the project:
The aim is to establish a user-driven effort to map the world (or at least parts of it). The result will be free, digital thematic maps containing geographic and temporal data on any land features that people decide to map. This may include natural landmarks, cities or even pubs in your local area. Best regards Your FreeGIS Core Team.

Updates from 1.1 to 1.2. Description: ------------ This is an APT satellite weather image decoder for Linux. It can decode APT images direct from the receivers audio o/p via the computers soundcard or from a file of recorded APT signal samples. Currently wxapt supports the NOAA-type and Meteor-type APT formats. wxapt automatically sets up the sound card and the mixers recording/capture volume to the correct level and then determines the type of satellite form the signature of its sync pulse train. wxapt is a simple non-interactive command line tool for the console and was designed to be efficient and suitable for running on low power machines using simpler processors like the Intel StrongArm and similar. For this reason wxapt uses only integer arithmetic for all processing and does not require linking to math libraries for calculations.

There is also a GTK+-based user interface available which is called xwxapt. Best regards Your FreeGIS Core Team.
