Overlays and GeoJson
-
Firstly Martijn, thank you very much for a great plugin, and also the help with my previous problem. I hope you now dont regret it!
A bit of background; I am an RFS volunteer firefighter in Australia and now that our horrid fire season is over I am trying to get some tools together for the next one.
A number of us use Oruxmaps as it is very feature rich and we can load up the local topographic maps and work offline. we can also draw or walk round fire extents and store them. With your server it becomes easy to share them with others, and see where the other trucks are.Now I would like to do two things.
1. to draw some of these tracks (always polygons) as an overlay with a fill (ideally in different colours to signify burnt area or active fire etc)
2. Ideally to import an existing GeoJson published by the RFS which shows the extent of fires in the state (the map is referenced in the Web page link above and the GeoJson is at https://www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/feeds/majorIncidents.json).
I know this is a big file and we would need to select only the fires that are in our local area, but i noticed that all your tracks are converted into GeoJson, and while I had thought to convert them into KML or GPX i thought i should ask your advice first.i am a retired programmer with no mapping experience so i am comfortable extending your work if it is not too complex, but as always we hope that it almost does it already.
Thanks again for any advice
