Georeferencing courses

A new tool for georeferencing courses has been added to o-range. When you upload an xml-file whitout gps-coordinates you will be asked to georeference it. Your screen will be divided in two with your controls to the left and a google map window to the left. Pick the start triangle and 2 or more controls and select the corresponding positions in the google map window. O-range will the automatic place all your controls in the google map. You can adjust the positions of the controls, and when you are happy with it save the event and upload the courses to your watch. This tool is helpful if you only have images of your maps or maps which are not georeferenced. The xml-file must be in IOF- ver3 format. Another new feature is the possibility to show your event in google map. Select “google map“ in the “meatball menu” to see the courses. You can also adjust the positions of your controls with this feature.

This tool is a beta version and not fully tested. A few updates on the web page were needed to include this new features, please send an This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you get trouble using o-range after this update.

Garmin Connect IQ has recovered

Good news: Connect IQ is up and running again.

As you all know, Garmin has been the target of a hacker attack. There have been many rumors regarding ransom etc. We do not know more than you about it and Garmin says nothing.
 
Due to outage, it has been impossible to upload or update the O-range app on the watches. But now it is fortunately possible to do it again.

This is the message form the Garmin team: Apps, Watch Faces, and Data Fields queued for installation before 14:30 GMT on July 30th may need to be re-installed from the CIQ Store.

 

Bug fix (ver 2.3.2)

The first rule of programming: It's always the progammers fault. Users have reported that o-range not always remember the settings from last exercise. Typically show/hide distance is not always saved in the memory. This can be annoying for those of you who don't want know the distance to the contros during the training.

Version 2.3.2 solves this issue. Your settings will now be put in the memory for the next exercise. This version can be uploaded from the Garmin Connect IQ store.

 

Make your event public

A small makeover has been carried out on the website. You can now make an event public by selecting Make public in the dropdown menu. The event is added to the list Public courses. You can also add maps to your courses. You do this by selecting the Upload map in the dropdown menu on each course. (you can upload pdf- or png-files.


This makes it easier to share o-range courses without exchanging xml-files and pdf-files.
