7.7.5 Loading maps using Narda MapTools
The Narda MapTools PC program is used to access suitable online map
servers, select a map section, set the required degree of detail (zoom level)
and download the selected map.
The selected map area is saved as an offline map on the PC. The next step
is to connect the microSD card of the IDA to the PC using the USB adapter
supplied, select a section of the offline map and copy it to the memory card.
You can then use the Select Map function to select maps transferred in this
way when the microSD card is inserted into the IDA.
A world map with zoom stages 2 to 8 is stored on the memory card as
supplied from the factory. The large quantity of data contained in more
detailed maps means that you will need to select the map areas of interest
to you and download them from the Internet yourself.
The installation program for Narda MapTools is on the IDA Tools CD.
7.7.6 Creating your own maps
It is often useful to use your own maps, aerial photographs, orthoimages or
satellite images showing the particular infrastructure that you want.
The map material used in the IDA-2 measuring system uses image
segments called tiles, which are based on the Slippy Map Tile System from
OpenStreetMap, so you can create your own maps using any commercial
GIS application. You can select the regions you require and the zoom levels,
and even add objects to your maps in this way.
Narda has published a Technical Note, TN105, which explains how to
create your own maps based on the Global MapperTM GIS application.
