Transfer any image in a compressed gpz file that can be used as a thumbnail map icon. Locus already provides the necessary basic offline functions. Only the current manual process needs to be automated. Find out more in here: Thumbnail map icons

Hello Willy,

very nice document. Thanks. I see there a few useful things, that really should be improved. But! as far as I see in the GPZ official discussion, there is still not yet final solution of how GPZ should look like and behave. Because of that, I do not really want currently implemented featurues that may be changed during next months.

Please let me know (in case I miss this info), when GPZ V1 format will be finalized. We may than discuss these improvements. Thanks!

Create gpz test files by desktop 7zip as follows.

- The gpx file with a custom wpt gpx sym plus eventually a gpx link to extra images.

- Add the images to be displayed as map thumbnail icons in the gpz (zip) root.

- Add some extra images to be displayed in full size in a folder "files".
