BETAS / Re: New beta 10.6.x

Last post by orux - May 11, 2024, 08:12:36 AM

Hi orux, awesome work,
I picked up some bike sensors recently, so I was messing around in orux to see how they work.
I was wondering with the sensors like cadence / speed, could you make it so it retries to re-connect to them indefinitely (or a configurable time), sometimes I walk away from my bike for a few minutes and often forget to tell orux to reconnect to the sensor, also on the track statistic page it's a bit confusing what data is from the sensors and what's from the GPS, maybe a toggle to show sensor stats and a toggle to show GPS stats if possible.

I was also messing with some bike computer app, it could play back your ride route like a video from 1x to 100x speed and has like a little dot icon that moves through the route and shows riding speed as it plays through, I thought that would be pretty neat if orux could do that, but you could show more stats like altitude, speed, grade...etc

Edit:
also minor bugs, when adding a second sensor to the BLE cadence / speed, it should show the mac address like the first sensor does, since there is no way to know if the second sensor is added, also for popup noticications it just says bluetooth sensor connected, maybe that could be improved to something like BTLE speed sensor connected / BTLE cadance sensor connected, same with the connection lost message.

Hello!

I am working with those sensors...


About reconnections. If you start the sensors manually (you do not use the automatic connect setting) the app should try to reconnect indefinitely. This is so that it is not constantly trying to connect when automatic connection is activated, and you are not using the sensors.


I will correct the problem with the MAC of second sensor, and add the sensor name to the warning messages about connection/disconnections.

Hi orux, I was recording a route using oruxmaps, and also recording using a dedicated cycle computer, most of the stats were similar except on the bike computer the altitude gain/loss was off by almost 1000 ft from what orux shows, im not sure what one is correct. (I have more confidence in orux then the chinese bike computer (Xoss G2 Plus) but who knows.).

Anyways I have another bike computer arriving in a few days so i'll be able to compare against that one too.

btw the new update works great.

ERRORES/BUGS / Not using barometer for elevat...

Last post by dm413-om - May 08, 2024, 07:32:01 PM

Recent versions of OruxMaps generate elevation data that is very noisy. It looks as if Orux is using elevation data from the GPS system rather than the barometer in my Tempo Disc. This did not happen with older versions of Orux.

For example, here is a plot of the elevation data from a hike I did 7 Sep 2023. In the GPX file, the initial <gpx> tag includes: creator="OruxMaps v.10.1.8 GP with Barometer".



Here is the same hike done 6 May 2024. The initial <gpx> tag includes: creator="OruxMaps v.10.6.1 GP with Barometer". Notice how noisy this data is compared to the 2023 plot. This looks like elevation data as it comes from the GPS system; it is much noisier than I would expect from a barometric elevation.



Orux is configured to use my Tempo Disc device. It is successfully connecting to the device, because the saved GPX file includes temperature data at every track point.

My orux settings include:
Sensors > GPS settings
    Smooth the altitude: on
    Barometer for elevation: on
    Barometer autocalibration: on, method GPS
Sensors > Thermometer/Hyugrometer/Barometer BTLE
    Beacons: configured
Tracks/Routes > GPX settings
    Export sensors data: Temperature
    Altitude algorithm: Point to Point
    Smooth the altitude: on
    Smoothing level: 8

This looks like a bug to me, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks,

Perfecto!!! Ahora si!! Muchas gracias. Aparte he puesto que el mapa tenga avance instantaneo para que fluya mejor la navegacion por el track. De nuevo muchas gracias!!!

I deleted all tracks form SICAMI because I uploaded all GPX file ( after export gpx from oruxmaps database) but in SICAMI there was missing property ( activity tipe, ecc).

@orux: Please add mass modification!!

No...el problema viene porque siempre me aparece un punto en el centro del mapa y no sé como quitarlo. Es un punto parecido al boton de activar gps.

MAPAS/MAPS / Re: Mapbox format offline maps

Last post by Hauke - May 06, 2024, 10:48:19 PM

Quick Update: I've now all things in place - a detailed write-up will follow, but I may need a few weeks time for that, other projects looming. So here's what I currently achieved:

An offline atlas that contains:

• The basemap.de rendering, slightly altered to show different kinds of wood (needleleaved, broadleaved, ...)
• The contour lines from basemap.de (these are excellent in quality!)
• An overlay of OpenStreetMap data, like POIs, access rights (e.g. parking places for only customers or that require a fee) etc., generated from the Geofabrik pbf files via tilemaker into mbtiles format
• Sprites and Glyphs of basemap plus my own additions (Can recommend free texture packer for generating the sprites files)

Using QGis I downloaded the basemap data into two mbtiles DBs (map data + contour lines), and added my OSM mbtiles.

I created this for the German states Northrhine-Westfalia and Rhineland-Palatinate, which add up to about 50.000 km² --> This just eats up 650 MB! That is just amazing!

I really like that I even can edit the style of basemap - I guess to save rendering resources I might disable objects in the map that are of no interest for me.

This is very new, so I need to gather a bit of real world experience with it - one thing I can observe: If I use this offline atlas, adding also Orux Maps hillshading, my phone's battery eats away rather quickly... I hope that this is just because I played around so much just now, enjoying my product... To be on the safe side, I'll bring a powerbank for the next hiking tour :-)

Also, when browsing around a lot in the map, at some point something breaks and the rendering of new areas is incomplete. Loading another map and switching back to mine fixes it. I guess it's a bit too much for the limited resources of my phone...
