.SH NAME
navit \- The modular touchscreen-friendly vector based navigation software.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B navit
[\-h] [\-v] [\-d <debuglevel> ] [\-c <config file>]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Navit is a open source (GPL) car navigation system with routing engine.

Its modular design is capable of using vector maps of various formats
for routing and rendering of the displayed map. It's even possible to
use multiple maps at a time.

The GTK+ or SDL user interfaces are designed to work well with touch
screen displays. Points of Interest of various formats are displayed
on the map.

The current vehicle position is either read from gpsd or directly from
NMEA GPS sensors.

The routing engine not only calculates an optimal route to your
destination, but also generates directions and even speaks to you.

Navit is translated in more than 40 languages currently, please see https://translations.launchpad.net/navit/trunk
