we have some bit of archived material, raw and well finished and we wanted
to be able to see them, manipulate them etc

add on new data, layers,

like the new maps that NASA has just released.

import GPS points directly onto a layer etc

am a GIS novice, most of the work was done by others and on closed systems
but i want to make sure as much works on Ubuntu.

am not sure of what all but right now want to install everything because
once i get home won't have access to broadband to install

regards
ram
