Track to Route Conversion
The Track to Route (T2R) Converter is used to make a route from a pre-recorded
track. Right click on a track and click "To Route" to create a new route from the track.
You should hide any route(s) that may be drawn on top of the track you wish to convert so that: 1) you can access
the track with the right click since the route may block the track; 2) So you can tell which route has just been
created.
The T2R options are available from "Tools->Options->Track To Route..." in main menu.
Inclusion / Exclusion Rules - These rules control the rules used to add and remove waypoints from the route being generated.
The rule will only be used if the check mark next to the rule name is checked.
Inclusion Rules - The inclusion rules are used to determine what track points to use as waypoints in the route
being created.
- Course - The point will be included for a waypoint if the difference between the course at that point
and the last point added is at least the given value.
- Speed - The point will be included for a waypoint if the difference between the speed at that point
and the last point added is at least the given value.
- Distance - The point will be included for a waypoint if the distance between that point
and the last point added is at least the given value.
- Time - The point will be included for a waypoint if the time between the that point
and the last point added is at least the given value.
- Include All - All points will be included as waypoints.
Exclusion Rules - The exclusion rules are used to reduce the number of waypoints added by the inclusion rules.
- Distance - A point will not be added if the distance between that point and the last point added is less than
the specified value.
