I also had to do an 'ldconfig' as well before the qmapshack app could find the shared objects/libs and run successfully. Having built and installed qmapshack, I then had to copy the following shared objects, by hand, from my build directory to the default installation directory for Qt5 (/usr/local/Qt5.5.1/lib): libQt5WebKit.so.5 Then the normal cmake build for qmapshack worked - apart from a few compile failures that were fixable. You add locations of the cmake config files using the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH environment variable ie: $ export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.5.1/qtbase/lib/cmake I got around the problem of the cmake build script not finding the cmake config files for Qt5WebKit by adding the path to my build of Qt5 rather than the actual installed directory by build directory, I mean the location on my file system where I built Qt5.5.1 rather than where it was installed.

#Qmapshack build install#

sudo make install lets you import the program to /usr/local/ per the previously defined settings. This step creates several binaries: the main program qmapshack, the qmaptool utility for displaying maps, and the qmtmap2jnx and qmtrgb3pct tools for converting data formats. Elev.Answering my own post here: I can now build qmapshack successfully. The make call builds the programs under bin/. The elevation data will still be shown thanks to the DEM data for QMapShackĮasy non ? Author Minty95 Posted on 11 June 2021 12 January 2022 Categories Linux Tags DEM data, Dig. It’s done, you can now modify your trace, add, remove, change it. Now your Track Information windows should now show you the data like before you started playing with the trace and lost it. Going back to your trace that you have been working on and lost the elevation date, Right click on the trace, choose Replace Elevation by DEM. Now as you can see, you just have to add the path where the DEM files / folders areĪll being well this will now add to this empty window FranceDEM (this is the FranceDEM.vrt file. In this empty window, right click and use the Setup DEM Paths Adding the DEM folder path Now back to the small window that you should have showing, probably empty when you created the window from the top tool bar : Window – – Dig. In my case FranceDEM.vrt I saved this file next to my franceDM folder but I believe you can put it almost any where. This will open a window so that you can create (or modify an existant xxx.vrt file) In you case of a new one so just give this file a name. So with all your tiles now in the left hand window, all you need to do is click on the Target Filename: (Blue folder before this text) You’ll have a new window like this Next step TARGET Filename Build the VRT Select all the files from this window and click open.

Guide the linux dialog windows to your franceDM folder (or what ever name you gave this folder) My DEM tiles Click on the Select source files: (Green folder before this text) Then from the top tool bar : Tool - VRT Builder. I assume that you have downloaded all the tiles that you need, again in my case all that covers France Now in the program QMapShackįirstly add a window from the top tool bar : Window – – Dig. You will have as shown in the image above a file N48E001 When all tiles downloaded you will have many files in the folder So you’ve downloaded the tiles I called it franceDM (you will need to dezip them later or extract them while downloading) my folder and VRT file in my DEM folder

#Qmapshack build download#

Now I download these tiles to a folder that I had created in my DEM folder. Only one tile to be downloaded at a time. In my case France, so loads of tiles and you have to download them one at a time, doh. I then open from where you can download the DEM tiles for the area that you need. I have or created (I can’t remember which) a DEM folder

Mine is in /home/trevor/qmapshack DEM folder in the QMapShack folder

So how to use DEM filesįirstly in your QMapShack folder.

#Qmapshack build free#

So here is how to add DEM data to QMapShack, so that when you modify an existing GPX trace you don’t lose the elevation details. This is the command qmapshack that can be run in the OnWorks free hosting provider using one of our multiple free online workstations such as Ubuntu Online. I finally realised that this was due to QMapShack not having the elevation info, and also realised that I would need to get this from somewhere, using DEM files.
