stamped latitude and longitude values. The IGC format also contains

altitude information (pressure and/or GPS) and the task (route). IGCview
|

can also import Gardown format files and export them in IGC format.</P

>The program is oriented wholly towards looking at the GPS log traces
|

produced by glider flights. You can examine other traces, but the analysis

|
will not be particularly useful. It can compute quantities such as: start
|

|
to finish, average task and individual leg speeds, climb rates, L/D,
|
|||
|
etc. It can also read and compare multiple flights in detail making it
|

a very useful learning tool for cross country and competition oriented
|

soaring pilots.</P
