== FRViz
ForeRunner Visualizer is a GUI to help you get information out of the
.gmn files produced by the Garmin Tools.
Basics are to list all found files with activity dates below the data
directory which is currently fixed to the $HOME/.frviz location.
To store the data of your Garmin ForeRunner device there, just use:
mkdir $HOME/.frviz
cd $HOME/.frviz
garmin_save_runs
When you click on a listed file, it displays the laps overview and shows
the XML data produced by garmin_dump. The file list is grouped by year
for a better overview.
English and German languages are supported at the moment.
If Marble is found on the system, you can use it to display the track
or single laps of the selected file, if way points are included in the file.
The GUI is inspired by Garmin Traning Center (Windows) and
Sportwatcher (Linux) application. It's work in progress and lacks some
features like reading new data from the Fore Runner device or showing
diagrams.
There are quite some points on my TODO list.
== Requirements
ForeRunner Visualizer requires the Garmin Tools to process the .gmn files
(and to read the data from devices soon) as well as the RubyQt bindings.
To display tracks on a map it can use Marble if it's found on the system.
It is planned to use Google Earth as an alternative in a later version.
