In depth

A closer look at Tig2aprs

tig2aprs is a utility to convert US Census TIGER/Line(R) (1994 or 1995 version) map data into maps suitable for use with the Automatic Packet/Position Reporting System (APRS) by Bob Bruninga, WB4APR. In the documentation that follows, you are assumed to be very familiar with APRS, which can be found at the TAPR FTP site. tig2aprs is a C program that was developed and only been tested under Linux, a free Unix system. If you port it to other platforms, or otherwise improve upon it, please send me your changes so that I can incorporate them.

tig2aprs reads US Census TIGER/Line(R) 1994 files and generates DOS/APRS maps. tig2aprs reads the collection of TIGER/Line files as a single standard input stream and creates one or more output maps plus one or more maplists. This is well suited to dealing with the TIGER/Line data on CD-ROM or even across the network since you can "unzip -p" the files directly from the CD and pipe them into tig2aprs.
