qgis

FIXME: These instructions are not tested! Just off the top of my head.

open GeoTiff

where on the disc is one?

(if needed geotiff and shapefile export could be added to the GRASS testing procedure to make some)

open PostGIS data I

From the menu: Layer → Add PostGIS Layer ...
PostgreSQL Connections: [New]

    Name: medford
    Host: localhost
    Database: medford
    Port: 5432
    username: user
    password: user
    SSL Mode: allow

   Test Connect should show success
   select sample point, line and poly layers
   view selected data

open PostGIS data: (run the PostGIS test first so that the osm_barcelona DB exists!)

From the menu: Layer → Add PostGIS Layer ...
PostgreSQL Connections: [New]

Name: ________ "OpenStreetMap Import" 
Database: ____ "osm_barcelona"

Click on [Test Connect], with luck you will get a message that the connection to the database was successful.
Click [Ok] to close the New Database window.
Click on [Connect] in the top left of the Add PostGIS Table window. You should see a listing of tables come up.
Click on all of the table names to highlight them.
Click on [Add] at the bottom.
After some moments you should see the data displayed in the main map canvas.
Zoom, pan, query as you like.

This should at least prove to you that the database is correctly populated and running.

open shapefile

where on the disc is one?
From the menu: Layer → Add Vector Layer ...

Do not select New Vector Layer ... (that's for creating new data, not opening existing data)

Dataset: [Browse]

? where on disc ?

Ctrl-click on each of the *.shp files in that directory, then click [Open] and finally [Ok]
After some momements you should see the data displayed in the main map canvas.
Because the some of the shapefiles use a different map projection than the PostGIS database, things may not line up exactly. In the Settings → Projection Properties, Coordinate Reference System tab, you can tick the [•] Enable 'on the fly' CRS transformation box to overlay them. Be warned that this is computationally expensive and the layer may need to have its CRS set manually.
Zoom, pan, query as you like. Drag layer names up and down in the left-pane list to change their position in the stack.

open OSM data

need to enable plugin?
open /usr/local/share/osm/Barcelona.osm.bz2

Test the GRASS plugin

(it's installed, right?)
Go menu "Plugins, Pluginmanager, activate "GRASS plugin", OK button: a set of new buttons should appear
open location/mapset → ~/grassdata/spearfish90/PERMANENT
click "Add GRASS raster layer" button, select "elevation" map
click "Add GRASS raster layer" button, select "elevation_shade" map
click right mouse button in legend on "elevation_shade" map, move transparency to 40%
click "Add GRASS vector layer" button, select "roadsmajor" map, select layer "1-line" (level 1 is the topological level), OK

Enter Explore Mode again ("e") and left click on the great barrier reef
Options -> Map -> Download
- Map source: NASA LANDSAT, Scale: 1:500,000, [Download Map]
- When download is complete click [ok] then change the preferred scale slider to 1:500,000
- This will be of more use in remote areas.
Explore to the coast, click on an airport, headland, or some other conspicuous feature. You might want to use the magnifying glass buttons to zoom in on it better. Use a right click set the target on some other conspicuous feature nearby then demagnify back out.
Options -> Map -> Download
- Map source: OpenStreetMap, Scale: 1:150,000, left-click on map to center the green preview over your target and what looks like a populated area.
- [Download Map]
- When download is complete click [ok] then change the preferred scale slider to 1:150,000 and you should see a (rather rural) road map. This will be more interesting in built up areas.

Overlay a GPX track

In the ~/.gpsdrive/tracks/ directory you will find australia.gpx which is a track line following the coastline.
Options -> Import -> GPX track
Hidden folders are hidden in the file picker, but just start typing ~/.gpsdrive and hit enter. You should then see the tracks/ directory and be able to load australia.gpx.
A red trace should appear along the coastline.
Check that it lines up well with the coast as shown in map tiles of varying scale.

If a GPS is plugged in

Make sure gpsd is running by starting "xgps" from the command line.
The program will automatically detect gpsd and jump to your current position. This should bring up a continental map as you won't have any map tiles downloaded for your area yet.
See the above "Downloading Maps" section to get some local tiles.
If you have a local GPX track of some roads try loading that and making sure everything lines up, as detailed in the above "Overlay a GPX track" section.

That's it.
