Seeker
Accurately Locate Smartphones using Social Engineering
Seeker is an open source project that demonstrates how to obtain precise location information from devices using social engineering and web-based techniques. The tool sets up a phishing page that asks for location permissions, allowing GPS and other device data to be shared if the user consents. It can capture latitude, longitude, accuracy, altitude, direction, and even speed, with results displayed in a terminal. The project supports both manual deployment and tunneling services like Ngrok for external access. While primarily intended as an educational resource on security awareness, it highlights the risks of exposing geolocation data online. Its simplicity and effectiveness have made it a popular project in cybersecurity learning circles. -

EvilTransform
Transport coordinate between earth(WGS-84) and mars in china(GCJ-02)
eviltransform is a compact library for converting geographic coordinates between the global WGS-84 system (used by GPS) and the Chinese GCJ-02 system (used by many Chinese map services such as Google Maps China and AutoNavi). The project implements forward and inverse transformations (WGS→GCJ and GCJ→WGS) as well as a higher-precision inverse method (GCJ→WGS exact) that trades speed for sub-meter accuracy, and it includes a utility for computing geodesic distance in meters. It’s implemented (or ported) across many languages and platforms — you’ll find reference implementations in Go, C/C++/Obj-C, Java, JavaScript, Python, PHP, C#, Haskell, Rust, Swift, MATLAB and more — which makes it easy to drop into server, client, or mobile codebases. The README documents the API signatures and describes expected numeric accuracy (e.g., ~1–2 m for the standard inverse, <0.5 m for the exact inverse) and when to use each routine. -

libpostal
A C library for parsing/normalizing street addresses around the world
A C library for parsing/normalizing street addresses around the world. Powered by statistical NLP and open geo data. libpostal is a C library for parsing/normalizing street addresses around the world using statistical NLP and open data. The goal of this project is to understand location-based strings in every language, everywhere. Addresses and the locations they represent are essential for any application dealing with maps (place search, transportation, on-demand/delivery services, check-ins, reviews). Yet even the simplest addresses are packed with local conventions, abbreviations and context, making them difficult to index/query effectively with traditional full-text search engines. This library helps convert the free-form addresses that humans use into clean normalized forms suitable for machine comparison and full-text indexing. Though libpostal is not itself a full geocoder, it can be used as a preprocessing step to make any geocoding application smarter, and simpler. -

eGPXviewer
eGPXviewer is a 3D GPX track viewer
eGPXviewer is a GPS track viewer capable of summarizing key data of input track GPS series, displaying the track's altitude & speed profile and provide interactive 3D perspective views of it. The GPS track data should be input from a GPX exchange formatted file which is typically obtained by downloading a GPX file from a GPS receiver/tracker (e.g. Garmin™) or an iOS™/Android™ tracker app. The GPX exchange format is a standard output file format available in most GPS tracker devices/applications. It is human readable text file written in XML. Read more about the GPX exchange file format here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_Exchange_Format. eGPXviewer is currently available for Win10 and Linux (Ubuntu/Mint, CentOS, OpenSUSE, Raspbian) operating systems. ™ Registered trademarks for the respective owners. -

Karto
Tool to work on map data, to check the data and generate your own maps
Karto allows to calibrate a scanned map (or aerial photos) with some known geo-points (Lambert, UTM, ...). After that, you can add any points (GPS points) in the map to build your own map. You can also add a transparent GIF image in the map after calibration (cave, mines, roads, ...). You can realize your own cartes with the data you add inside adding/showing/hiding layers of data. You can import/export your data files (after checking and correcting them) in differents formats. -
