[andrwei]

Hi Forum



Im about to leaf to Romania for an off-road trip. What I do need is a Satellite map from a specific Corridor. What I did so far.



1. I bought the Google Hybrid Maps Downloader.

2. I did set the zoom to 18

3. I did download with this the corridor.

4. after successful download i did combine the map with bmp.

5. after successful combining i did moved the files to my android tablet in to the oruxmaps/mapfiles folder.

6. In oruxmaps v.7.3.2 I tiried to load the map. The map is shown in the list of offline maps

7. I do get allways an error message "problem reading map file cant be read"



Please help me

Thanks Andreas

Which format does that app use as output map format?



If you do a simple search in google, you can find a compatible onlinemapsources.xml file with those maps.

The best solution (according to me) is to generate the map with MOBAC. I did it several times in the past. Fast and easy.

Here the content of a .bsh Mapsource file to get Hybrid Google in MOBAC

Code Select Expand

name = "Google Hybride";
String Lyrs = "y";
tileType = "jpg";
maxZoom = 21;

String getTileUrl( int Zoom, int X, int Y ) {
return "http://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs="+Lyrs+"&x="+X+"&y="+Y+"&z="+Zoom;    
}

/**
h = roads only 0-22
m = standard roadmap (Plan) 0-22
p = terrain = t,r 0-22
r = somehow altered roadmap 0-22
s = satellite only 0-21
t = terrain only 0-22
y = hybrid = s,r (Earth) 0.21
