as for #2 I was surprised locus can calculate current position distance/time to a point clicked on the track and even jump in to the 2nd track and calculate correctly...1 out of 2 times.  Yes it was not consistent...strange.

What I could not find in locus is click anywhere on a track (not current position) and click again and get distance time values between those 2 clicked points.

On an adv motorcycle forum I asked what's the deal with DMD2 since there is sooooooo much it can't do compared to Locus.  I was promptly told what it does do it does very well.  I was skeptical and I got the paid version and played with it....well I am stunned...it is true it has at least 2 features that I wanted for locus and I think many others wanted for years...please correct me if I am wrong...  Intermediate time/distance to various targets and a simple time/distance measure tool along a track.  It has a high contrast mode and a better "dashboard" experience too.

So I am trying a hybrid approach to nav by keeping locus for the planing and back end library but using dmd2 for the actual following of the tracks for now....I wish locus just had all these features.

You can look at this area "Norwood, CO" in Gaia and it is impressive how much data they have.  I was told they pay to access the USGS servers for that.  I'd pay in the Locus Store for access to MVUM and PADUS as an online layer we can download.

Once a year you might want to look at, osmand, gaia, DMD2.  Recently I was told DMD2 has a feature that shows on screen time/distance to multiple waypoints within the overall track all while navigating all on a highly legible screen...something that this long time locus user told me locus does not have and is superior to all other apps...I have not loaded it to try it.  His claim was DMD2 is the absolute best for following tracks...not making them.  I had the chance to play with it a bit at a recent navigation seminar at a bike shop and one thing I noticed is that it appears to have the PADUS/BLM colors nicely on an imported OAM map...how?  Will have to figure that one out.

Maybe one of your 3rd party map devs could add some of this???

darn...I was hoping you could do it.  kind of like you did with PADUS...take a url and convert it in to syntax like this:

 </provider>   
   <provider id="11000" type="0" visible="true" background="-1">
      <name>USGS PADUS</name>
      <mode>USGS Fee managers</mode>
      <url><![CDATA[https://gis1.usgs.gov/arcgis/rest/services/padus3/Fee_Managers/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}?format=png32]]></url>
      <zoomPart>{z}-8</zoomPart>
      <zoomMin>8</zoomMin>
      <zoomMax>25</zoomMax>
      <tileSize>256</tileSize>
      <extraHeader>Referer#http://locus.asamm.cz/</extraHeader>
   </provider>







</provider>
<!-- FS-Topo maps -->
    <provider id="10805" type="0" visible="true" background="-1">
        <name>FS-Topo</name>
        <mode>Map</mode>

thanks anyway

thanks...many of them don't work for some reason???  I was always able to get active fires but that is gone???

We always have fires running here...loads of them...using "My Radar" app there is probably over 100 now.

can you get any fires???

I found a WMS source for the MVUM!!!
https://www.geoseer.net/rl.php?ql=b83d317cbbeaaae2&p=1&q=Mvum

if you can make this an online map then it can be saved for offline!!!

hoping...

Troubles & Questions / NASA WMS?
January 22, 2024, 17:35:32
This loads but can't display anything in North America?
https://neo.gsfc.nasa.gov/wms/wms
Is the projection wrong?   Is this already in the WMS library somewhere?


Also...I believe I can edit WMS with names.  if I delete what I don't use, Is there a way to export the full list as a back up and reimport?

Is there a Locus working repository of more wms besides the libraries within the software?

Petr...a while back you were able to get both PAD-US working as an online map and FS-Topo.

I am trying to get the MVUM layers to show on an offline map and have managed using the jpeg to map calibration to KML....works ok.

I also was able to finally find a server that allowed export of a kml or geojson but they come in as  individual tracks and you can't adjust transparency.

I am also experimenting with the qgis method to make mbtiles but it is arduous.


Can we get this  https://apps.fs.usda.gov/arcx/rest/services/EDW/EDW_MVUM_01/MapServer/2 to show as an online map that way I can download the entire area for offline and finally have parity in this visual data with Gaia???

Like you did with FS-Topo, you figure out the XML code and I add it to my existing providers.XML file in the custom folder.

thanks for that.  So to clarify...you are using that remote to control locus and one of the buttons to launch taker audio record with location?

Who you save your audio records with location you are not saving them within the locus app but in taster?

I guess you are saying try tasker again as a separate stand alone app just to record my voice and have location attached automatically?  Ok I will try again.

I do remember reading somewhere there is a tanker add on or plug in for locus but that is not part of this right?

I currently use one of these BT controllers to, zoom, center, scroll around screen and switch between north up and rotate to direction of travel.

Using this method to get it to work with locus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNpsNsMi0Xc

It seems to work ok.  Are you saying use something like this to 1 button begins tasked recording?

Do you have a tasker profile you could share that can do this or any YouTube links how to do it?

Tia,
