libkgeomap

[Gilles Caulier]

libkgeomap is a wrapper between marble for local map, OpenStreetMap,
and GoogleMaps, to display geolocated items place over a world map.

A widget is provided, and collection of tools to process :

- Reverse Geocoding,
- Tracks management,
- Selection over map to process searches.

It used in digiKam to :

- show geolocation info about selected items from icon view,
- show a map with region selector to process searches
- show a big map view to replace icon-view by a map with all items superimposed.

It used too, in kipi-plugins with GPSSync tool to :

- Correlate items with a GPX track
- Made GPS track
- Perform reverse Geocoding using Internet server.
