GatherMate2
GatherMate2 is an addon to collect and track herbs, mines, fishing pools, gas clouds, archaelogy finds and treasures, and displays them on the world map and the mini map.
This is the Retail version of GatherMate2, the version for WoW Classic can be found here
GatherMate will remember the location of every herb you pick or every ore you mine, so that you can easily find the positions of the herbs and mines again. Once you come into range of a recorded spot, GatherMate will show an icon representing the type of herb/ore/fish/etc. on your mini map, directly allowing you to decide if its worth checking out. Additionally, all spots are shown on the World Map, to ease navigation to certain types of nodes and making gathering more fun.
To give you a head start, GatherMate2 also offers a pre-filled data module, so you don't need to discover all herbs and mines yourself, but instead can just start gathering right away. Simply install GatherMate2_Data and hit a few buttons to import all the provided data, and you're good to go.

Video about configuring this addon.
Usage
Using GatherMate2 is straight-forward.
After the installation, GatherMate2 is automatically active and collecting data.
You can configure which data should be shown on the World Map or MiniMap in the Configuration Dialog, which can be accessed either via the /gathermate slash command or be found in the Interface options in the WoW Menu.
Localization (Translation of Nodes)
GatherMate2 relies on the node names to be translated in all languages WoW supports. You can contribute additional translations for your language here using the Localization tool:
https://www.wowace.com/projects/gathermate2/localization
Any translations submitted through that tool will be automatically included in the next release.
GatherMate2_Data
GatherMate2_Data has been updated with all fresh data from Wowhead, including support for Shadowlands, and will be continously updated throughout the coming expansion.

it improved a bit but my FPS now with GM2 around 15 FPS, this was while in Deepholm.
in uldum is around 10FPS
we did some optimzation on some of the math, try it now, should be better on FPS
thanks for the report, we are still working on it.
Every time i activate this addon, my FPS drops massivelly, in beta
With GM2 - 5 FPS without - 60+ FPS
Archaeology has been added
I flew around and did some Archeology, and as far as i can tell, the artifact locations are all predetermined. So, if this is the case would it be possible to track this with GatherMate2 thus greatly decreasing the time needed to do surveying?
My observations to observe this are mainly: Digging up artifacts in the same location, and several people obviously tracking down and digging up the same location.
well if you send the SV for it i can add it to gathermate_data, im doing a new version of gm_data for gm2. Ill freeze gm_data when wowhead wipes the db for cata so those on wrath only levels (china for nsatnce) can still use it, and new one will be done for cata level stuff.
about the only ting worth keeping is my massive fishing data that isn't in GM database, i been meaning to send it to you but i aways forget.
there will be a convertor tool so you can pick what to import, after than new data will be harvested form wowhead once it becomes available.
import old data? hope it only imports outlands and northrend, anything else is useless :P
