UMAP displayed in Locus? WMS?

brad shared this question 6 years ago

I have built an OSM-based uMap (http://u.osmfr.org/m/170451/) for my organisation's humanitarian work in Bangladesh which is good, however, when I return to the field, I would like to display it in Locus since it's my main GPS app.

Is this possible? I tried adding the URL as a WMS source but was unsuccessful. I'm looking for a live solution to display the map. I know I could download the uMap as a KML and send to Locus each day but I want to avoid this as it's time-consuming.

Thanks

Hi,

In case that you want to display only the map itself then the "custom provider" feature is exactly for you. Basically it helps to define new map that appears in the list of online map (Manu > Maps > Online).

Detailed info how to define new online map is described in http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:advanced:customization:online_maps

Please feel free to contact me with any question

Best regards

Petr

Thank you Petr. Unfortunately, this didn't work - I think I need to understand this better. I managed to edit my XML to get the map to appear as an option, but no tiles were displayed.

Thank you

Hi,

please send me the providers XML file and also some example URL for single tile of map you want to add. I'll check it

Thank you

Petr
