That's why I decided to give it a start.Īs I needed a simple and reliable source to sketch the concept I decided to use the OpenSky service. But I do acknowledge that starting from scratch without an API or framework is quite high level. So it's still up to those interested in those features to send a pull request. Personally I am not much interested in implementing that kind of stuff. So far there was no framework in QMapShack to handle that kind of data. From time to time there are requests to display the position from a GPS source or to display GIS items that are subject to a time based change like S&R progress. The trick will be to derive timestamps for each point out of that. There are well known models to estimate the tour duration by taking the climb rate and distance into a account. To do the same for hiking will be a future challenge. The parameters are not extensively tested. The idea is to adjust the speed as a function of the slope. It has several preset profiles and a few profiles for customized settings. Karl provided a new track filter to estimate the speed and thus the time on a bike tour. As Wolfgang accompanied the development process by extending the Wiki on the spot there is nothing left for me to write. Thanks to Norbert's persistent work you can convert each waypoint, track, route and area to a no-go area. Wolfgang did a great job and started the QMapTool Wiki: It will be used by QMapTool in the future

Qmt_map2jnx - this is the same as in QLandkarte GT (map2jnx).

Qmt_rgb2pct - this is my replacement of rgb2pct from GDAL, to handle the alpha channel correctly Qmaptool - if QMapShack finds QMapTool in the path there will be a menu entry "Tool->Start QMapTool" I am not sure if there are further changes needed for OS X and Windows. Please tell me if something is missing from the package maintainer's perspective.
#Qmapshack drop zone install#
For Linux I tried my best to make the install process as compliant as possible. I think it's easier for everyone to have this stuff in a single compile environment, installer or package. *Migrating QMapTool and friends into the QMapShack project* Release time! There is quite bunch of changes I want to present in detail:
