Detailed Description

A simple program that reads AIS data from a CSV file and outputs a few of these records converted into temporal values.

In the input file located in the data/ subdirectory it is assumed that

• The coordinates are given in the WGS84 geographic coordinate system, and
• The timestamps are given in the GMT time zone. This simple program does not cope with erroneous inputs, such as missing fields or invalid timestamp values.

The program can be build as follows

gcc -Wall -g -I/usr/local/include -o 02_ais_read 02_ais_read.c -L/usr/local/lib -lmeos
