Waypoint Viewer Google Maps/Google AppEngine waypoint viewer

Waypoint Viewer is designed to make it very easy to present waypoint files and tasks, used for paragliding competitions, in Google Maps. There is nothing to install on your webserver, just link to http://waypointviewer.appspot.com/ specifying a link to the waypoints file hosted on your server.

Waypoint examples:

Task examples:

Waypoint Viewer accepts four parameters in the query string:

wpt=http://...

specificies the URL of the waypoint file, this must always be present. Waypoint Viewer understands OziExplorer, CompeGPS, FormatGEO and SeeYou waypoint files.

title=title...

specifies an optional title for the webpage. It is recommended that you include this.

kml=http://...

specifies the URL of a KML file that is overlaid on the map. This is useful for showing airspace and other points of interest.

tsk=task...

specificies the competition task. This is simply a list of turnpoints separated by spaces (+ or %20 when URL encoded). Each turnpoint can be followed by .SS (to indicate the start of the speed section), .ES (to indicate the end of the speed section), .R400 (to set the radius in meters), and/or .R10K (to set the radius in kilometers). For example:

TASK+RACE+D01+B10.SS.R5K+B10+B20+B30+A01.ES.R1K+A01

Embedding maps in your web pages

Waypoint Viewer makes it easy to embed waypoint and task maps in your webpages, using an <IFRAME> tag, for example:

<iframe width="300px" height="300px" src="http://waypointviewer.appspot.com/?title=French+Championships+2010&wpt=http://parapente.ffvl.fr/compet/1405/balises&tsk=T1.1+RACE+D01+B45.SS.R12K+B45+B88+B01+B75+B70+A02.ES+A02.R200"></iframe>
