altitude

Post by moodman »

I have used offline maps for land navigation, but I noticed you have plugin for export of KML files. THis is good, but I would like to know if there is a way to make the waypoints and before I export them to include an altitude field.

My intended use is to use offline maps to go in the field with a drone, set waypoints by their UTM or lat/lon coordinates, along with what altitude I want the drone to fly. Then export the kml file and my drone will read the file and fly that mission.

I'm reaching here, but am also hoping. Thanks.

Hi,

In the current version, the only way to do this would be to use the "Compute slope" tool:
- Tap the map center icon -> Create a placemark -> Compute slope.

For each point you enter, the application will ask for an elevation.
Then you can export the create route as KML. Note that it will create a route (ordered list of waypoints) and not waypoints...

Let me know if it can do the job
