Tool for online and offline geocaching
Advanced geocaching tool for Linux downloads geocaches including their description, hints, difficulty levels and images. Searching for caches in your local database is a matter of seconds. Premium account needed for premium caches.
- Map view - supporting Open Street Maps and Open Cycle Maps by default, configurable for other map types, including google maps.
- GPS view - shows the distance and direction to the selected geocache.
- Cache details - all necessary details are available even in offline mode.
- Paperless geocaching features - take notes for a geocache on the go, see the hints and spoiler images, check the latest logs.
- Multicache calculation help - Let your phone do the math for you. Working for some of the multi-stage geocaches, AGTL finds the coordinate calculations and let you enter the missing variables.
- Fieldnotes support - Ever came home after a long tour and asked yourself which geocaches you found? Never again: Log your find in the field and upload notes and log text when you're at home. Review them on the geocaching website and post the logs.
- Text-to-Speech-Feature! - Select a target, activate TTS and put your headphones on to enjoy completely stealth geocaching.
- Download map tiles for selected zoom levels - for offline use.
- Advanced waypoint handling - AGTL finds waypoints in the geocache descriptions, in the list of waypoints and even in your notes. For your convenience, they're displayed on the map as well - see where you have to go next.
- Search for places - in the geonames.org database to navigate quickly.
- Sun compass - Compensates the lack of a magnetic compass.
- Instant update feature - Follow web site updates as soon as possible.

Search doesn't work (doesn't even show any error message if search fails...). Maps loads nicely, so its not internet connection's fault at least.
Found my first cache using AGTL!
As the website keeps reverting to the old description, here's the long one: AGTL, the all-in-one solution for on- and offline geocaching, makes geocaching paperless! It downloads geocaches including their description, hints, difficulty levels and images. No premium account needed. Searching for caches in your local db is a matter of seconds.
AGTL is Open source and in active development.
