GPS data logger to KML, GPX and CSV formats
A GPS data logger for the Maemo platform. Main features : * Gathers as much information as possible from the GPS subsystem at a desired frequency (time, satellites, fix loss, etc...). * Exports your saved tracks to KML/KMZ, GPX and/or CSV files in a single operation. * Snap and name a position (POI) while recording to see it later on a map. * Automatically updates system time according to GPS time.

@Thomas : The Pause/Resume feature mainly allows not to stop current track AND to continue to track satellites in the meanwhile (locking enough satellites to get your position can actually take a very long time, especially with N900 hardware).
Using example : You stop for lunch during a road trip. This is faster and more convenient than starting a new track (or even appending one to an existing file since same process is involved internally).
Nice application! I like it, because I can use it offline. But what is the sense of pause and resume? They are only marked as nodes.
I especially like this application for the ability to easily re-synchronize the system clock to UTC. I use the n900 in remote areas lacking gsm and internet access which ntp applications require for updating the system time, which makes GPS Recorder one of my favorites.
