• Change tour photo image location.

   

• A splitted tour can cause these errors:
  
  • A tour marker can be out of array bounds.
  • NPE occured when last time slice is split.

• Show photo annotations at the correct position when images cannot be loaded.

In the release notes of version 13.4 it was written that Linux can crash using the new 3D map. This is still true but it also depends on the used graphic card.

When having a computer (notebook) with an onboard and a 2nd graphic card, it can work successfully with the onboard graphic card but it can crash with the 2nd graphic card.

• Changed wording for actions in the calendar view.

   

• Improved Italian translation, provided by Doriano Cometto.

• Improved French translation, provided by Vincent Di Sanzo.

   

• PDF printing issues caused by int -> long restructuring (1 year ago)
• Markers are not sorted.

• Marker distance is not displayed.

• Fixed problem when importing FIT files from o-synce Navi2Coach, provided by Marcin Kuthan.

   

3D Map

This map is currently just a "simple" map with a few features:

• Show/hide map layer

• Terrain profile graph tool

It is planned that tours and photos are also displayed.

This map is displayed with the NASA World Wind SDK (why the application is now 10 MByte larger than before).

3D Map Demos

There are many demos which shows features which can be implemented in this map.

Why is World Wind used instead of Google maps ?

• Pro Google
• There are many areas where Google map is better than World Wind.
• Pro World Wind
• No Ads.
• No Google dependency.
• No Google internet connection.
• No over-engineered map navigation.
• Anything can be customized.

Map navigation

Map navigation can be done with the buttons in the View Controls layer or with the Default Controls (mouse + keyboard) which are described here (in the lower part of the page).

One Click Area

The 3D Properties view contains an area where layers can be activated/deactivated very easily with the mouse.

This area is on the right site of the view and it's width is one third of the whole view width. The mouse cursor will change when this area is hovered.

Clicking inside this area is doing these actions:

• Show/hide map layer.
• Collapse/expand layer category.

Terrain profile graph

The Terrain profile graph tool can not be dragged to another location (like in the screenshot) because it's not working correctly with Linux.

Linux: Crash out of the box :-(

When running this 3D map in a Linux environment within VMWare it caused a lot of problems, native Linux is not yet tested.

This map is running smoothly with Win 7 and OSX 10.6 (when you have a good graphic card :-)

Problems

• MyTourbook can crash when showing "Open Street Map" layer. It can display a few tiles but then it crashes.
• A lot of exception's can occure (see console) when showing layers which draw map tiles.

Used Linux test environment

• VMWare 8.0.5
• Ubuntu 12.04
• JRE version: 7.0_13-b20
• Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (23.7-b01 mixed mode linux-x86 )

These layers can be displayed without problems

• Stars
• Atmosphere
• Place Names
• Scale bar
• Terrain profile graph
• View Controls
• Status Layer

3D Map with Linux

Photo workflow is now complete

It took 12 months to implement this simple feature: "Show tour photos in the map" and there are still some parts which can be improved.

Tour Photo Filter

• when this filter is activated, only tours with photos will be displayed. This affects ALL views, special views are excluded, e.g. tour import view.

Photos + Tours view

• save photos in a tour, when a tour contains photos, they can be displayed in the tour chart, tour map and tour photo views
• displays number of saved photos and time adjustment
• new filter to show only tours which contain photos but the photos are not yet saved in a tour

Tour Chart view

• show/hide photo markers with/without photo tooltip
• show different photo markers for linked and saved photos

Tour Map view

• filter photos by rating stars
• set photo image size
• there is a painting problem for photos which is described here

All photo galleries

• star rating can be set for photos when they are saved in a tour. When a photo is saved in multiple tours, star rating can currently not be set (this situation can occure when more than one person is saving the same photo)

Tour Chart view

• there is a different hovering algorithm for the mouse location and photo marker background color

Tour Book view

• all average values are wrong, they included tours which values are not set -> average values are too small 3599360
