Description: # PyTopo
        
        PyTopo is a tiled map viewer and a track log viewer/editor.

        Downloaded map tiles are cached locally, so you can use PyTopo offline
        if you've already cached the tiles for an area.
        
        See the project home page at http://shallowsky.com/software/topo
        for more information, examples, screenshots, hints on creating
        custom maps, and more.
        
        By default, PyTopo uses tiles from OpenStreetMap, but you can specify
        a variety of tile sources (which may or may not require API keys);
        or you can create your own tiles.
        It can also use tiles from a few commercial programs like the old
        National Geographic Topo!
        
        The package also includes ellie, a simple script for reporting and
        plotting distance and elevation change statistics from a GPX track log.
        More information: http://shallowsky.com/software/ellie/
        
        ## Track Logs and Waypoints
        
        PyTopo can read track logs in GPX, KML, KMZ or geojson format.
        It can make simple edits, like splitting a track or deleting to
        the begin or end point and can save as GPX.
        
        It can also measure distances and bearing angles between points,
        or report the coordinates of a point.
        
        ## Installing and Dependencies
        
        You can install PyTopo with ```pip install pytopo```
        
        Dependencies include GTK (and its various dependencies), numpy,
        and (optionally) matplotlib.
        If you want to read from a GPS, you'll need gpsd and python-gps.
        
        The first time you run pytopo, it will create a ~/.config/pytopo
        directory for its configuration files, and a ~/Maps directory for
        map data.
        
        ## Other Info
        
        pytopo -h gives usage examples.
        
        If you need custom maps., edit ~/.config/pytopo/pytopo.sites to add new
        map Collections (see examples in that file or on the project home page).
        
        Code contributions appreciated!
        
        ## Tests and Documentation
        
        There are some unit tests in the test/ directory;
        run them with
            python -m unittest discover
        from the top-level directory.
        
        The docs directory contains documentation on the two apps and the API.
        To build the documentation:
        
        ```
        python setup.py build_sphinx
        ```
        
        or
        
        ```
        cd sphinxdoc
        make html
        ```
        
        Happy mapping!
