Route Map (Request)

[CrashGordon]

Is it possible to use the routes in the database to display them on a map, perhaps google maps, or would that wind up trying to plot too much data on the map?

You should have that functionality already here - http://www.omega-air.org/index.php/routemap - but for some reason it does not display, maybe the tpl got changed or something or it is not available on the version you are running.

I am running 879 and still have it here - http://www.newenglandvirtual.com/index.php/routemap

I only have it set to show 6 routes but you can set it for more.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I have what your are speaking of. What I'm looking for is a routemap that shows the VA's hubs and routes on a world map by drawing lines between each flight's departure to arrival airport.

Like this, but with straight lines and no fancy inserts or color coding.

About a year back that was capable you could put in a hub and have all flights displayed on the map but the code was edited to show what we now have routemap, im sure its possible but may take some thinking on.

I use Great Circle Mapper for static map displays, it is easy to use and easy to get the variables you need from phpvms to create the map. I use it on my forntpage and also in the pilot profiles. http://www.newenglandvirtual.com/index.php/profile/view/1 is an example - the great circle mapper site is http://www.gcmap.com/

Works very nicely. Thanks.
