NAME
gaia - 3D interface to the planet.
SYNOPSIS
gaia [options]
DESCRIPTION
gaia is an Earth viewer that lets you navigate around the globe and
zoom into almost any place.
OPTIONS
-w, --world=MODEL
Select world model. Default model is ‘flat’, which gives you
simple flat world view, similar to plain paper map. No rotation
or tilt, but this model is fastest. Another model currently
available is ‘3d’, which will show you earth as a globe with
extended navigation functions. It’s currently not finished, so
not much of use.
-m, --master=TYPE
Select master layer. Master layer determines where earth data
comes from and how it’s shown. Default master layer is ‘nasa’,
which needs no explanation. Another layer is ‘test’ used
primarily for testing other components.
-t, --test
Add test slave layer. Used for testing like test master layer.
-g, --grid
Add grid slave layer. Shows dynamic geographical grid (not fully
functional currently).
-p, --gps=SOURCE
Add GPS slave layer. Shows location of GPS device and it’s
route. Available sources are:
gpsd://host[:port] - Connect to gpsd running on specified host
and port. Port is optional and defaults to 2947. Gpsd supports
many GPS devices and may be run locally or remotely. For
details, see http://gpsd.berlios.de/
nmea://path - Path to device (socket/fifo also works) that
outputs NMEA information from GPS device.
test:// - Provides fake coordinates for layer testing.
