QMapShack is not in the official Ubuntu package system yet, and there is no ppa to install it directly from the ‘net and maintain updates. You will need libroutino and the following dependency packages, though:Īpt-get install libqt5script5 libqt5scripttools5 gdal-bin libgdal-dev libgdal1h python-gdal That said, there is an easy way to install it, by using a Debian package from QMapShack Debian backports page. To build routino library, you will need to get/build graphics magick. Sudo apt-get install libz-dev libbz2-dev libgraphics-magick-perl Try installing all dependencies via apt-get, but I had to build graphics magick from source. Setting up a Trail Mapĭownload a free Open Cycle map (it has tons of hiking trails too) for your area from: Sudo checkinstall -D -pkgname=routino -pkgversion=3.0 -arch amd64 -backup=noĪt this point, qmapshack should start.

There is no elevations in this picture, let’s add them! Adding Elevation Model The map should appear in map files list – right-click on it and select “Activate”: Put the gmapsupp.img file you downloaded into that directory and select the directory in File -> Setup Map Paths in QMapShack. I am in the US, so the information below is for getting and installing US elevation data. This mean 10m/30ft per grid point – pretty good! Download files from here: The US National Elevation Dataset has elevation data with ⅓ arc second resolution. Select ⅓ arc second DEM (they actually have 1/9 arc second resolution (wow!) for some areas which is pretty cool, but takes a lot of space, a long time to download, and regular GPS track resolution is not that great anyway). Select the extent on the right, click “Find Products” and add datasets to download cart on the “Products” tab and download them from the cart. into some subfolder in “Maps” directory, like “mosaic”).
