Josef Kleber submitted an update to the
getmap
package.
Version number: v1.5
License type: lppl
Summary description: Download OpenStreetMap, Google Maps or
Google Street View maps
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The goal of this package is the simplest possible provision of
map images (OpenStreetMap, Google Maps and Google Street View
are supported). In the simplest case, the specification of an
address is sufficient. The package loads the map using the
\write18 feature, which you must activate to use this package.
The image will be downloaded by an external Lua script. You can
use this script also from the command line.
License: LPPL
Changes in v1.5:
- added gpx2gps bash file
transforms a gpx file (exported route) into a plain list
of geographical coordinates (latitude,longitude) to create
an encoded polyline (route) for the map
- updated documentation
