RE: [Paparazzi-devel] GCS KML export

[Elden Crom]

I had not realized that there was already a place to put a GCS to KLM converter 
so I wrote my own (in perl) that works from the command line by importing the 
*.data file and converting it to KML then packs it all up into the KMZ.
Its at http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/User:EldenC
This file contains the KML and associated file along with perl source code and 
the *data and *log file that I used to create it.  (a kmz is just a set of 
files that can be zipped or unzipped with ubuntu's 'zip' or 'unzip' command 
line tool).
To get to the script (utm_geo_convertion.pl) download and 'unzip 
Flight_10_02_14__18_04_10.kmz'.

To rerun it with different parameters you could then call 
perl utm_geo_convertion.pl 10_02_14__18_04_10.data -scale_plane=20.0 
-start_time=20
(by the way I started recording prior to the GPS locking in so you have to tell 
it to ignore the bad data ( -start_time=20) for the first 20 seconds of the log 
or the 'launch' lands in the middle of an ocean)

It may be a starting point/reference for the TODO list item.
