What's new in GSAK 9.0.0.0:

  • Changes:
  • Added support for the new (as of May 2018) Groundspeak API
  • Switched from Google maps api to Leaflet maps api

GSAK (if not already running) will start and you get a window titled 'Open a GSK file'. You want the 'Install the macro' option which should already be defaulted. Click the 'Go' button. The 'Run Macro' window will now open. Don’t buy a Windows license, don’t reboot or use a virtual machine until you try CrossOver for Mac, Linux, or ChromeOS.

Read the full changelog

Navigation has greatly evolved nowadays, and not only in terms of traffic information and guidance. Travel locations and waypoints can also be found through specific services so you can plan vacations and trips. With proper applications like GSAK you can keep track of preferred locations based on GPS coordinates in databases and create your own.

Well-organized interface

The main window is cleverly organized and allows you to view both the list of stored locations, as well as a map and specific details. You can adjust the separator size for easy navigation or for more viewing space. In addition, an integrated search field and sorting options make it possible to find just the right spot in the fastest time possible.

View, sort and edit location lists

With an active Internet connection, you can stay up to date with locations, so you receive the latest maps and updates on location details. What's more, you can thoroughly customize your list by deleting entries, modifying them, or creating new ones from scratch by providing thorough details, such as coordinates, name and even link it to an URL, if available.

A large variety of export possibilities

Furthermore, the application lets you export data to an abundance of file formats for later processing. Amongst others, possibilities range from basic CSV or text files, to HTML, memory, map, POI, WPT and more. Info can also be printed out on a sheet of paper, with configurable output data, or viewed as a thorough navigable tree, structured by several criteria.

Monitor location changes and updates

Your database can be saved using a backup utility just to be on the safe side. Moreover, if multiple databases are saved you can bring up a change log display to review latest entries. More on location editing, waypoints can be colored for better organizing, provide a check status, access the location's web page or have details updated.

In conclusion

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that GSAK is a handy tracking utility adventurers might want to keep around. It's easy enough to use and available info and editing fields let you build a thorough database, as well as staying up to date with routes. Flexibility is also a plus, thanks to the abundance of supported formats and customization options.
