Re: [Paparazzi-devel] problem of getting google earth connection

[Hillar Lago]

I am new to the paparazzi so please excuse if this has been answered before. how do you load a map from previously downloaded tiles? I ask because I have this problem before and have not been able to figure this out. I see the folder where all the tiles are, but how to load them?

 

thanks

Google does not allow people to use their map tiles in 3rd party software (i.e. paparazzi) and they have algorithms to detect such attempts. Generally, you can get about 1 km^2 per day without triggering Google's system. Once triggered, Google will ban your IP address from access to maps for a day or two, even

The only solutions are to crack Google's algorithm or use the open source map tiles from Microsoft(!). I'll buy a beer for whoever
