8.2.9   Create and edit a tracks

 

Land/Air allows you to create a track as you wish and then load it onto your GPS so you can follow it. You can also edit any track that you have loaded so you can adapt it to your preferences and needs.

 

We recommend that, before you edit a track, load a 3D landscape for the area where you have created your track so that altitude information is also stored. If you forget to load a 3D landscape, you can assign altitude values to all the points of your track a posteriori using the tool ‘Calculate altitude over ground-level for each point’.

 

The tracks that you are creating will not contain information about time because the track is artificial (all the points will indicate the time they were created). Because of this, you will not be able to run the animation mode unless you use the option ‘Assign time and speed’ (which you can reach through the tools option of the track context menu in the main window or on the data tree).
