GENERAL / better waypoint (voice)guiding
June 29, 2024, 03:20:06 PM
in my opinion the direct waypoint navigation could be significant better. I will describe my proposal by the following usecases and requirements:
usecase1   
I
           • am
                   ○ in unknown area, no roads, no paths
                   ○ on bike
           • always see a  compass
           • am planning a target by defining a point
           • don't want look to the mobile display. I leave my smartphone in my pocket because
                   ○ its rainy, gloves on hands
                   ○ im on bike
                   ○ i must be concentrated to traffic with both hands at steer
                   ○ ...
   
   i wish to be guided to this target point by voice
           • with informations  in detail:
                   ○ name + optional text
                   ○ distance
                   ○ direction
                   ○ high difference
                   ... until
                           § i am close enough. I expect an Info like "you have arrived Point X. It`s closer than Y meters ... configured by yourself"
                           § i discard the guiding
                  
   
   in OruxMaps v10.6.3 gp
           • waypoint (approach)alarm by voice informs me only to distance and optional the name.
           This is not useful enough. I want arrive the point, not only know how far it is (in best case).
           • waypoint alarm by voice stops
                   ○ after the predefined number of informations
                   ○ if the distance will become greater
usecase2   
expands usecase1:
   i am planning a route by (using the route-planning-tool without autorouting by direct lines) defining some ordered points
   
   i wish to be guided by voice
           • point by point in there defined order
           • with informations to the next AND his following point.
                   ○ to decide my moving direction for the next steps. the last point of chain is nearly usless for this.
                   ○ see information details  of usecase1
           • point1 should be additionally announced as "start of route"
           • last point should be additionally announced as  "end of route"
   
   currently in OruxMaps v10.6.3 gp
           • the points by route-planning-tool all named "waypoint" without an ordering number. I cant distinguish between them.
           • the option "last waypoint" results always in voice information about the next WP = 2 times the same info
requirement   configurable options for voice guiding announcments for points
           • name
           • distance
                   ○  in Km
                   ○ < 1Km in meter ansagen
                   ○ max precision ( e.g. 10 m)
           • direction  in degree (0..360)
                   ○ max precision ( e.g. 1 degree)
           • high difference (in positiv | negativ meters)
   
   ... like the visual display while target navigation
requirement   clarify between direct target navigation to
           • only 1 point
           • a list of points (ordered chain of points)
requirement   enhance optional announcment of the next and the following point
requirement   voice alarms for approaching a point until reaching or skip target
requirement   the route-planning-tool by direct lines auto assiggns ordering numbers to the point
requirement   enable redefining list of points for navigation
           • add /delete points
           • change their order
           • change further informations
           • auto reassign the ordering numbers
           • while active navigation
requirement   configuration direct editing a xml oder json file


thanks for your intresting

currently in OruxMaps v10.6.3 gp
i am
planning a route by (using the route-planning-tool without autorouting by direct lines) defining some ordered points

.predefines
..voice announcements / sounds
...tracks/routes
....informations for voice announcements
    distance to target=YES
    distance last WP=YES

.activate direct waypoint navigation

:
the option "distance last WP=YES" results always in voice information "distance to target"
 = 2 times the same info
