  • Save data to a PostGIS database (required)
  • Generate basic statistics and perform analysis

TripGIS Data Management Tool (DMT) takes the collected mobile data and allows you to edit and tag it with other metadata. It ties in to the Google Web Services to allow for address looking and mapping to WGS 84 coordinate reference system. The finished data can then be loaded into a database.

Output data is in CSV format and PostgreSQL PostGIS database tables. Either format is accepted by many GIS systems. For prelimary report generation, QGIS was used. Data was also exported to KML and verified to work with Google MyMaps. It's your choice how you wish to go with it.


Expect the next version to be released this winter with several improvements.
