Somebody reported on Sourceforge [tickets:#67]:

Add compatibility for OziExplorer's:
a) map's (image file+.map; ozf2; etc.)
b) trek's and waypoint's (.plt;
.wpt; etc.)

Maps, treks, and waypoints for OziExplorer are already georeferenced, and its only need to add support for this file formats into Mapper, and then it's easy will can use their as templates.

Links with info about OziExplorer's file formats:

Import images with .map calibration/georeferencing map

There are many detailed raster topo maps already distributed with *.map files

Also few applications for downloading online maps, that can export single image with .map file

Is there any progress on import OziExplorer's georeferenced image (name.jpg+name.map) as template?

In principle, GDAL raster support covers OziExplorer's .map files. However, GDAL fails to provide information about supported filename extensions, so this driver is ignored by Mapper at the moment.

@dg0yt dg0yt modified the milestones: v3.0, v0.9.3 Mar 14, 2020
@dg0yt dg0yt added this to Open in GDAL support via automation Apr 4, 2020
@dg0yt dg0yt moved this from Open to In Progress in GDAL support Apr 4, 2020
dg0yt added a commit that referenced this issue Apr 4, 2020
Given the broad range for raster and vector formats, lists of file
extensions from GDAL must remain incomplete and ambiguous. So we use
the lists only to choose between GDAL and other readers. In the end,
we choose between GdalTemplate and OgrTemplate based on the driver's
ability to read the actual data. This allows us to handle formats
which don't register extensions.
Resolves GH-67 (OziExplorer files as templates).

This change also paves the way for using GDAL virtual file systems.
