GPX-Viewer

The GPX-Viewer is a simple Tool for the PC to display GPX-Logfiles recorded by the Mikrokopter

Funktions




Download

You can download the latest Version of the GPX-Viewer here: Download GPX-Viewer




Getting the Logfile

The flightdata are stored on the SD-card on the NaviCtrl(see here). If there is no SD-card plugged into the NaviCtrl, no data will be recorded. To load the logfile from your Kopter it has to be connected to you PC. Therefore you can use the MK-USB.

/!\ Be aware: You only can use SD-cards with a capacity of max 2GB. And it has to be FAT16 formatted!

In the KopterTool you see this this button http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/KopterTool_ab_V2_0/Details/Button-SDcard.jpg?m=1447745121. After clicking on this button an explorer opens where you can download the desired logfile.

http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/KopterTool_ab_V2_0/SD-Karte/Virtual_FTP_SD.jpg?m=1447746731

In the main folder of the SD-card you see the settings.ini, a folder for the logfiles and more possible files. Here you click on the folder LOG.


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/KopterTool_ab_V2_0/SD-Karte/Virtual_FTP_Log.jpg?m=1447746731

In this subdirectory you see folders which names contains the dates of the flights. With a double-click on the desired folder you get to the next subdirectory.


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/KopterTool_ab_V2_0/SD-Karte/Virtual_FTP_GPX.jpg?m=1447746730

Here you always find 2 folders. GPX and KML. To get to the logfiles, you double-click on the folder GPX.


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/albums/intern/KopterTool_ab_V2_0/SD-Karte/Virtual_FTP_files2.jpg?m=1447746730

In this directory you find the recorded logfiles. If the Kopter recorded more flights on that day, you will find more logfiles in this directory. Just like the previous folders the names of the logfiles contains the different times of the flights.
To download the logfile to your PC you mark one file and click on the small disc-symbol. Now the file will be downloaded to your PC.


{i} For larger files the download can take several minutes. If you want to download faster, you have to remove the SD-card from the NaviCtrl and read it directly with your PC.

/!\ The .ini - file name must begin with "Charts-".

Magnetfield over Current

For example in the configuration file: "Charts-MagentFehler.ini" Here is the magnet field drawn over the current.

Example: show the capacity

Create a "Charts-Capacity.ini" with the following content:

[Chart1]

ChartName = "mAh"

Series1Ident = "Capacity"

Series1Name = "mAh"

That shows the used capacity over the flight time.

Export Geodata

In the newest version of the GPX-Viewer it is possible to export the Geodata in the correct format to Pix4D and Agisoft Photoscan.


/!\ Please use our CamTriggerTool when using a FlightCtrl V3 with (or without) external hot shoe adapter !

How to:

http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/GPX-Viewer/GPX_viewer_menu.jpg?m=1446123587

In the following window you set the row, where the first picture was taken. You can see this under the column [ShutterCnt]

http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/GPX-Viewer/GPX_viewer_photolog.jpg?m=1446123670

Below you choose the first Photo which was made in the Waypoint flight.

Now you have to name the output file.

From here on it continues in the appropriate program.

Agisoft Photoscan


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/GPX-Viewer/Agisoft_import.jpg?m=1446452643

Are the photos loaded into Agisoft Photoscan click in the Tab "Reference" on the symbol for the import of Geoinformation.


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/GPX-Viewer/Agisoft_import_2.jpg?m=1446452794

Here the program provides the possibility to choose how the import file looks like.

Pix4D


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/GPX-Viewer/Pix4d_menu_05.jpg?m=1446123170

Are Photos without geoinformation loaded into Pix4D, it looks like this


http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/GPX-Viewer/Pix4d_menu_06.jpg?m=1446123171

With a click on "From File..." you can load the file you created with the GPX-viewer. When its done, you get a green ckeck mark as confirmation.
