I created a SIG for applications of geographic information systems
technology to robotics. This replaces the Geographic Info project on
kforge.ros.org.
http://ros.org/wiki/sig/GeographicInfo
Topics include: satellite navigation systems like GPS, cartography, geodesy
and geographic coordinate transformations.
We mainly focus on defining common interfaces and best practices, so
various classes of drivers and applications work consistently with other
ROS components. Please join if you are interested and wish to contribute.
