I can get some Austrian plates in their full glory, e.g. LOAN and LOAV. Others don't seem to be georeferenced, though, e.g. LOWL or LOWG.

Dear Tim,
for an example - use this function for Zell/See LOWZ. In the Austrian AIP there is a plate for this airport. In the information box of SD you will find under 'Information' and looking for charts a chart for 'VFR-Flights', marked with this new icon. Tapping on that opens the light gray transparent rectangle on the SD chart but nothing further happens. I interruped the waiting process after about 8 minutes. This behaviour is the same for all other AIP charts too.Hope I could give you an idea!

Can you give an example of a specific plate? From memory, those plates are particularly huge/complex and may therefore take a long time to complete rendering on Android.

Hi SkyDemon Team,
need some help regarding georeferenced plates. I want to use the plates in the Austrian AIP. For some airports there are such plates marked with the special symbol as I understood. After clicking on that symbol a light gray rectangel will be overlayed to the chart with a white cross on red ground closing symbol but no more. No additional information appears. Are there some setup adaptions necessary?
Thank you for your help!
I am using a Nexus 7 2013 device with WLAN and SIM card, KitKat 4.4.3 and the latest beta of SD.

Kind regards
Herbert

Hi,

I've spent some time testing that feature and so far I'm really impressed.
Yes, the initial rendering is a little slow, but the result is just perfect. I can't find a single glitch render-side or positioning-side.

Brilliant!

I do not see Visual approch charts for Belgian Microlight airfields
Would it be possible to use the following charts into Skydemon, and georeference them ?
These sites are available (and geo-referenced) in the following website:

thanks !


As far as I could tell these aren't even aviation maps at all. The ones I looked at appeared to be taken simply from Google. No airspace information, no traffic pattern information.

I don't think we will be including such things, no. I don't know where those maps come from or who builds them, but they do not look to be drawn to a professional aviation standard.

1) Un-Install existing SkyDemon from the settings/applications

2) Open a web browser and go this forum page and click on the link above which should start the download.

3) When the download completes open the notification bar and tap the file downloaded notification and select the option to install the app from the downloaded file.

PS Ignore warnings about untrusted sources etc which will appear as you are not loading from the app store.
