Author Topic: Center map on file problem (Read 5835 times)

Thomas · « **on:** September 12, 2004, 08:14:49 AM »

Hi,

I just downloaded the Demo version of TopoFusion to try it out with my Garmin MAPGPS 60cs with USB connection. I was able to download the data to TopoFusion and store it in a file. But when I try to center the map on the file, it resizes the screen to maximum (2280m scale) and I can't find my track on it. Do you know why this happens?

Thanks,
Thomas

There must be a bogus point somewhere in the tracklog. Right click on the file (in the listview at the bottom) and do Properties. Look in the list of trackpoints for something with a ridiculous lat/lon (or UTM). It is likely that it's at the start of the track. Delete the points and double clicking should give you a better result.

That's exactly what I thought. But unfortunately there is none :-(

Here is the XML code of the saved file. I just don't understand what's wrong with it:

All the points are bogus! I don't understand what could have caused this. The longitude is 353 W, which does make sense, however, we assume that it is 0-180 (E or W).

This is very strange since I have a 60CS and have downloaded hundreds of thousands of track points without problem. Where do you live, out of curiousity, and are you using a beta firmware or anything? (have you updated it at all)?

Thomas · « **Reply #4 on:** September 12, 2004, 09:55:56 AM »

I live in Switzerland (46.32N, 6.33E)

I have software version 3.50 on my 60cs and I have version 2.1 of Topofusion. Is there perhaps any settings I have to switch on/off on my garmin so that it reports/stores in the correct format?

No, this is likely a bug in TopoFusion. I do not believe that the USB code has been tested by anyone outside of the US. It should work since it essentially uses the older serial code. But it looks like this is our error. Sorry.

You do know that TF doesn't have access to any maps outside the US, right?

Anyway, thanks for reporting the problem. I'll try to fix it for the next release. If you are really anxious to try the program, of course, I can send you a dev. version with the fix. Just let me know.

Thomas · « **Reply #6 on:** September 12, 2004, 10:31:50 AM »

No, I didn't know that TF doesn't have access to any maps outside the US. But now I do. I saw that microsoft terra server does only provide for the US. Would it be possible to integrate other map servers or my own scanned maps?

But still, I like the statistics and possibility to make a 3D plot. Therefore a dev version would be really nice if you can send it to me. My email address is thomas.schmid@[remove me]solnet.ch
