Ignis Operations Manual
Drone Amplified
When your drawing gets exported to a kmz file, the app will export the lines you drew as
Polylines and Polygons. Lines of a single color that loop back around will be converted into
Polygons, so that you can conveniently fill them in if you load the kmz into some other
software. However, if your loop crosses itself, that might cause problems when loaded into
other software, so try to avoid drawing any loops that cross over themselves (unless you put
a vertex at the intersection). Other lines that don’t form loops will be converted into
Polylines.
7.18.7 Loading
Figure 7.18.7: The interface for loading drawings.
Touch the Load button to open a list of the kmz files you’ve made with this app, and also
any kml/kmz files you’ve imported as map overlays, shown in Figure 7.18.7. The first option
is the Blank Overlay option, which will clear your current drawing. Touching one of the
options for your loaded kmz overlays will show a Load button and a Merge button. The Load
button will replace your current drawing with the loaded overlay file. The Merge button will
combine your current drawing with the loaded overlay file. If the file you are merging in
uses the same kind of markers as your current drawing, the merged-in file will continue the
enumeration from the markers in your current drawing (e.g. if I have Fire 1 and 2 and I’m
merging in a file with Fire 1, 2, and 3, the merged file’s Fire will be loaded as Fire 3, 4, and
5).
