Opening OziExplorer's files as templates #67
Comments

Somebody posted on Sourceforge: GPSBabel |
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 ( |
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. |
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. Resolves GH-67 (OziExplorer files as templates).
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.
