GIS Markup / Sketch Tool

Nick Pietrosanti shared this idea 12 years ago
Declined

Hey guys,


I will try to explain what I would like to accomplish the best I can:


I would like to try and integrate a kind of markup tool using offline GIS maps as the physical background on which users can draw. So Markup would basically makes use of GIS maps as a backdrop and provide functionality like creating and sharing sketches. Also the Markup tool would basically use locus as a kind of asset viewer as well. The markup tool would provide users with abilities such as freehand draw, drawing straight multi-segment lines, drawing squares or circles, inserting text, and drawing dimensioned lines (with measurements in feet).


Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.


Regards,


Nick

I was thinking about writing this kind of thing as a stand-alone application. So do you want to do freehand drawing inside Locus or outside?

Which ever would be the most feasible? What do you think? Are you looking to develop ?

I was thinking about writing such an app. Now I`m using Locus + GPS averaging.

Good day Nick,


do not know if elmuSSo find a time to this task, anyway from my point of view, as a Locus developer, I think that such feature is too far from general Locus purpose - hiking/biking/geoaching.


So sorry, I'm closing this idea.
