Measure¶
Turn on ruler¶
Using the ruler, the user can measure distances and azimuths.

Ruler¶
The following information can be found in the each point of the figure above:
In (º): Azimuth in degrees of the ‘incoming’ measure. The azimuth is the angle of the segment with respect to North.
Out (º): Azimuth in degrees of the ‘outcoming’ measure. The azimuth is the angle of the segment with respect to North.
Blue measurement: Distance from the previous point.
Green measurement: Distance from the first point.
Note
There 3 different types of points on the ruler segments:
Green point: Indicates the start of the route.
Blue point: Midway point of the route.
Red point: End of the route.
In addition, by clicking on the ruler icon, two more options will appear:
Change units: The user can change the units of the measurements by clicking on this icon. The available units are: \(km\) (kilometeres), \(mi\) (miles) and \(nm\) (nautical miles).
Note
The ruler indicates the measures with 2 decimals in order to have more precision, as can be seen in the figure above.
Clear measurements: By clicking on it, it is possible to delete all the measurements in the mission. A confirmation pop-up window will then appear to make sure that all measurements wish to be deleted.

Offline¶
This option is designed for when users operate offline, i.e. they do not have internet access to download map information. For this reason, the map tiles of the area to work on can be pre-downloaded.
The following options are available in this section:
Show downloaded tiles¶
This option works differently when working online and offline:
Online: If the user has already downloaded tiles, when clicking on this icon, the area with the downloaded tiles will be marked with a blue rectangle:
Show tiles¶
If the user has not downloaded any tiles, the following message will appear when clicking here:
Show tiles - don’t have downloaded¶
Offline: If the user has already downloaded tiles, when clicking on this icon, these tiles will always appear:
Show tiles¶
If the user has not downloaded any tiles, they may appear because they are stored in the Veronte Ops cache, however, it is not certain that this will always happen. Therefore, it is recommended to have the map tiles downloaded when working offline.
Save tiles¶
The tiles that the user is viewing will be downloaded. An example is shown below:
Click on this icon when the user is zooming in on the tiles in the desired area to download:
Warning
As each zoom level in Veronte Ops counts as an independent map tile. When downloading map information, make sure that all relevant zoom levels are downloaded.
Download tiles¶
The tile download process will then begin:
Downloading tiles¶
Finally, by clicking on the above option, users can view the downloaded map tiles of the desired area.
If there is no significant zoom, Veronte Ops will not download these files because there are too many of them. The following message will appear:
