Features/separateupdatelocs #17

Closed belasco closed 10 years ago

belasco commented 10 years ago

This is a proposal to create a separate script for updating locations, taking the --update-locations option out of gpx2spatialite and adding gpx2spatialite_updatelocs in the /bin folder.

The script also has an --all-locations option which resets all locations to unknown and then uses a different method to lookup and redefine all trackpoints in the database. This method is much faster than the one used for updating unknown locations only.

Cool! I like the idea to separate the locations update into a separate script.

I will add some comments.

The new script should also be added to setup.py to the scripts array in setup

Since I have a bit of time to work on this, I am gonna merge the stuff and make some changes.

The old partialupdate function is not needed anymore I think. Your solution to get the locations first is better and I need only to add a parameter to the getlocations to get only the unknown locations.
