Geoserver, which we have running on OpenGTS, is a WMS compliant. When we have time, we will look at implementing that into the Q Ground Control. Certain parts of the world are not…"

Simon McIlroy replied to Tomtom Express's discussion Geoserver and qgroundcontrol"Harry,
Nice idea, although I think a better approach would be to add a WMS client which could access a Geoserver or any other wms map server."

Hello, Is it possible to add Geoserver to Qgroundcontrol, replacing Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and other mapping services ? Opengts allows this, and we have it working with maps, GeoTiffs, we created from scratch. We do this for a couple of reasons; 1. we need more detail than what is offered by ordinary mapping services 2. there are no fees to be paid should you be using one of these service for a money making venture. …See More
Tomtom Express replied to Tomtom Express's discussion Qgroundcontrol's UDP function"I am traveling now and will have a look at it when I am back home. Thanks for your quick response on this and my other question about the flash"
pixhawk replied to Tomtom Express's discussion Qgroundcontrol on Flash"It will only write to disc if you log data or if you download Google map tiles. It will store the current settings on application shutdown, but only a few bytes and nothing that will be visible in any way in your flash drive wear."

Tomtom Express replied to Tomtom Express's discussion Joysticks for Qgroundcontrol"Thanks for the response ! Will the Logitech Attack series work also ? http://www.logitech.com/en-us/gaming/joysticks/devices/302 ; Just curious, the Extreme will do just fine."

I am talking to a Science Museum about constructing an unmanned boat to navigate a waterway. It would be a fun way to introduce this sort of automation to the public. As this waterway is surrounded by trendy shops, bars, restaurants and condos, we are also thinking of doing advertising using LED and/or LCD displays to promote the science center. At night, there is very little traffic. The little traffic there is is from one or two ferries. For navigation, I am thinking of a GPS, of course, and… Continue
