5.2.2 Transferring Indoor Maps (R&S FSH-K17)
Before you can use the features of the indoor mapping application, you have to create
an indoor map (for example a floor plan). These maps are created with features
available in the R&S FSH4View software package, and are based on an image of the
area you would like to measure. The image source can be one of the common file
formats (for example jpg, png or tif).
► Start the R&S FSH4View software.
► Start the "Indoor Mapping" feature
.
The R&S FSH opens the indoor map editor.
► Select the "Map Creator" tab in the map editor.
► Select the "Load New Map" button.
The R&S FSH opens a dialog box to select an image file.
Zooming in and out of the indoor map
You can zoom in and out of the indoor map using the mouse wheel.
► Select the image file of the area you want to measure.
If you have an image, but need only a small part of it, you have to edit it with an
image manipulation program before loading it into the R&S FSH4View software.
► Press the "Create New Map" button and select the folder to save the map data in.
The R&S FSH creates a map from the image you have uploaded.
When this is done, copy the folder containing the map data to an SD card and insert it
into the SD card slot of the R&S FSH (make sure that the folder is in the root directory
of the SD card, because otherwise the R&S FSH may not be able to find the map
data).
In addition to creating a map, you can also specify the exact geographic location of the
area you are measuring. To do so, you have to specify three GPS reference points of
the area. Enter the corresponding latitude and longitude data in the corresponding
fields available in the "Create Map" dialog box and move the three cross-hairs
displayed in the preview of the map to the corresponding locations.
When you are using this feature, the application provides some useful features:
● The map is automatically rotated in such a way that the north side faces up.
● The R&S FSH calculates and displays the distance between measurement points
(in meters or feet, depending on the regional settings).
● You are able to embed the collected data into maps with a larger scale. Thus you
are able to, for example, combine measurement data recorded with the
Geotagging application (outdoor map) and data recorded with the Indoor Maps
application in a single map. For more information about this see "
