How to open maps ???

Post by Frankyfly »

One more question for the experts...
Say I have two - three maps stored locally for the same geolocal site, Does Alpine Quest app open them rightaway when I activate the real time position , or I have to tell it what map to use ?

Doest it check the real time position with the coordinates of the stored maps ?

You'll have to first select one of your map manually, using the app maps explorer.
Then, the application will automatically load other maps that are in the same folder, based on the your location, if the current map does not cover it.

O.K. , I knew that.
But I was not clear enough.
The question is another.
Imagine I loaded three maps for the same location ( ex. google satellite, OSM and Open TopoMap) , when I start moving after activating the real time position what happen ?!? What map choose the app to open ? I have to tell it what map use beforehand ?

So yes, the map will move over your real-time location, and if some data has been stored here, it will be used, otherwise it will try to download the area if Internet is available.
Note that when you store an area with the "Store complete map area", it's not exactly a map, but a stored map area. All stored areas for one map are added in the same map storage.
