Automatic Position Reporting System (APRS™) is an amateur radio based digital communication system for real-time exchange of digital information to users on the network. APRS was originally developed by Bob Bruninga, WB4APR more than 20 years ago. It has since evolved into a robust system of interconnected networks. XASTIR is a computer application that provides client access to this network using the APRS protocol.

XASTIR is an open source software project maintained by Developers and Contributors from all over the globe and is provided free under the GNU General Public License. From its early beginnings, XASTIR has evolved into a very robust client with a rich feature set that rivals any other client currently being used.
