Fig. 29 The map photos and tracked paths
If location data is available, the current position will be marked on the map in the form of a blue dot
. Button
switches the map view to a satellite or a map view.
There is a black dot in the photo mode of the map at the location where
the image was taken, with a small icon above it. The green circle
determines the azimuth direction of the mobile device's screen at the
time the photo was taken. Press the image icon to display an overview of
the basic attributes of the image. You can record a path in the map
view. Click the RECORD button, the dialog opens for entering a path
name, which is optional. When this dialog is confirmed, the path will be
recorded. The user can switch the application screens at will when
recording the path, but the application must remain active. The path is
recorded in the form of points, between which there is an approximate
recording interval of 1 second. When recording, the path is
simultaneously drawn on the map in the form of a black linearly angled
curve. Each point on the curve is represented by a pin
. When you click on it, an overview of its geolocation data is
displayed. Click the STOP button to end the recording. The path is then
drawn as a polygon, where the first and last points of the path are
connected. Click the PATHS button to go to the list of already
recorded paths (Paths), where you can select a path to draw it on the
map. Fields id and name of the drawn path on the map (currently
recorded or already recorded) are displayed in the overview next to the
buttons for recording the route. Clicking in this report will move the
map view to this path. In the application settings, you can turn on a
sound tone when recording a path point and automatically pan the map
view to the current location during recording.
Paths#
