Ability to insert pre-planned location information into a map

James Kuthy

It would be helpful to have the ability to create pre-planned frequently-used locations and then choose them from a list to easily place them as markers into a map. This would save time/effort needed for creating new markers when frequently-used information is used. Thanks for considering this.

    You can easily do what you want by creating a JSON file.

    For example, I have a list of predesignated landing zones for helicopters. I create a map with those markers and then export it as a JSON file to a shared location accessible by other team members. When a search mission is started, I can zoom to the area of interest and then import the file. The import process will tell me which markers are within the map area being displayed.

    You can also save commonly used trails into a JSON file. I even have a JSON file that will setup folders when I start a search map.
