Help - Planning a Route

Possible Inputs for Start & End Points

Everything from Adresses, Droneport Names & ID's, Airspace Names & ID's aswell as Node ID's can be input. Adresses or Names of Places will be searched in OpenStreetMap and ranked based on what is in view. Therefore searching for 'UKA' when your Map View is displaying Aachen will result in the University Hospital of Aachen.

Input Feedback

To Verify the selected Adress, Droneport, Airspace or Node an Element will appear before the Input field showing an ID of the corresponding Element verifying your selection. In Case you enter an Adress the closest Node to that Adress will be shown next to the Input verifying your selection.

Selecting an Airspace

To select an Airspace you can either fill in the Name or the ID. Both of which you can find out when making airspaces visible in the MapLayers Options and selecting an Airspace. If the Airspace is in Blue color it is available for mission planning.

Shortcuts

AS {ID} -> Airspace
DP {ID} -> DronePorts
ND {ID} -> Node
