Export of planimeter objects.

When exporting planimeter objects (areas and routes) you can pick from the following options:

Google Earth kml

Allows to view and edit objects in Google Earth app for Mac/PC. Same as Google Earth KMZ option, but doesn’t allow to transfer images and audio notes.

Route is exported as a series of placemarks. Area is exported in a way that each point is represented as a separate placemark, plus area is added as a Polygon/LinearRing object. LinearRing means that coordinate of the first points is used as both first and last coordinate of a Polygon/LinearRing.

Google Earth KMZ

** **

KMZ format allows to “pack” more information inside the single archive of a planimeter shape. As each planimeter point can have image and audio note attached, this is all packed inside the KMZ archive and made available for you in the following way:

- Images. Available directly in the Google Earth by tapping on a point annotation (see screenshot above).

- Audio notes. As Google Earth does not allow showing audio notes, you can still extract them from the KMZ file. Simply change .kmz extension to .zip and extract to get access to audio notes:

Notes are attached with .caf extension.

Route is exported as a series of placemarks. Area is exported in a way that each point is represented as a separate placemark, plus area is added as a Polygon/LinearRing object.

GPX - GPS Exchange format

Exports points as <wpt> GPX elements. Keeps the order of points.

For both Route and Area points are not representing a Linear Ring - that is, the first point on the sequence is not copied as the last one. If you have N points in Route or Area, points are exported as 1, 2, .. N.

GPX Route - GPS Exchange format

Puts points as <rtept> inside the <rte> - GPX route elements. Keeps the order of points.

If you have N points in Route or Area, points are exported as 1, 2, .. N.

Garmin csv with no header row

Simple comma separated file that can be open in Excel/Numbers or on Garmin devices. Keeps the order of points.

Order of fields is:

- Longitude

- Latitude

- Name

- Description

CSV export with all fields for photo and point.

This type of export does provide all fields available for each photo point. Following fields are being exported:

Field name Description POINT_UUID Unique identifier for the point. When exporting to KMZ, the photo file name inside kmz file will be equal to this UUID. POINT_NAME Name of a point as defined by a point editor. By default same as photo title. PHOTO TITLE Title assigned to a photo. POINT_NOTE Note assigned to a point in the point editor. PHOTO_NOTE Note assigned to a photo itself. PHOTO_FOLDER_FIELD_NAME Name for the “folder field name” in the photo notes editor. PHOTO_FOLDER_FIELD Either folder/collection name or manually edited field for a photo in the photo notes editor. PHOTO_ADDRESS_FIELD Address field in the photo notes editor. POINT_CREATION_DATE Point creation date. By default is the same as a photo capture date. LATITUDE Point latitude. LONGITUDE Point longitude. UTM Point UTM coordinates. UTM_HEMISPHERE_OR_BAND A designator for UTM using either hemisphere or a latitude band. H - Hemisphere, B - Band. MGRS Point MGRS coordinates. DATUM WGS 84 GPS_HORIZONTAL_ACCURACY Horizontal accuracy for the GPS data. DISTANCE_UNIT Unit for distance and horizontal accuracy. HEADING_TRUE True heading. HEADING_MAGNETIC Magnetic heading. HEADING_ACCURACY Heading accuracy. GPS_COURSE GPS course if there was a consistent movement in some direction when photo was captured. ANGLE_UNIT Unit for the heading and course. Either degrees or mils. GPS_ALTITUDE Altitude reported by GPS. GPS_ALTITUDE_ACCURACY Vertical accuracy reported by GPS. ALTITUDE_UNIT Unit for altitude and altitude accuracy. SPEED Speed reported by GPS at the moment of capture (-1 means idle or invalid speed). SPEED_UNIT Speed unit. Always m/s. ADDRESS_1 First address field from the point editor. ADDRESS_2 Second address field from the point editor. POINT_COLOR Color assigned to the point in the point editor.

Except for the speed, all units will be based on your settings > Units of measurement. Speed is always in meters per second.
