It is my understanding that Marius has supplied information on how to decode the .ns1 format to other people (notably the CoWF), but it will involve at least one NDA.

In the meantime, attached is a PERL file (GPS_vz.pl.txt) to convert a NS Summary file to the CSV for use with GPS Visualizer. (Basically, it does all of the conversion steps Dutch outlined above for you.) Make sure you rename it to GPS_vz.pl to run.)

To use:
1) Export a Summary file, naming it "FULLSUM.TXT"
2) Run the PERL script
3) The script will produce a GPS_vz.CSV file, containing the Lat, Long, SSID and MAC.
4) Upload the GPS_vz.csv file to GPS Visualizer.
5) Open favorite beverage and toast Thorn for removing drudgework.
