end of your desired sub-path. Details about the sub-path, like length, elevation change, and slope, will then be<br />

displayed on the bottom of the profile window.<br />

Right clicking on the profile window brings up an options menu allowing the user to change the start and end<br />

positions, select the units (meters or feet) to display the elevations in, configure display of the path profile,<br />

and display a dialog containing details about the path. These options are also available under the Options<br />

menu on the dialog.<br />

The File menu contains options allowing you to save the path profile/line of sight data to a file. The individual<br />

options are described below.<br />

The Save To Bitmap... option allows registered users to save the contents of the path profile window to a<br />

Windows bitmap (BMP) file for use in other applications.<br />

The Save to BMP and Display on Main <strong>Map</strong> View option allows registered users to save the contents of the<br />

path profile window to a Window bitmap (BMP) file and then display that BMP at a fixed location on the<br />

main map view. This is the equivalent of using the Save to Bitmap menu command, then closing the dialog<br />

and using the File->Open Data File at Fixed Screen Location menu command in the main map view.<br />

The Save CSV File (with XYZ and Distance Values... option allows registered users to save all of the<br />

coordinates and distances to that location along the path profile to a CSV text file. Each line in the text file<br />

will be formatted as follow:<br />

x-coordinate,y-coordinate,elevation,distance-from-start<br />

The Save Distance/Elevation... option allows registered users to save all of the distances and elevations along<br />

the path profile to a text file. Each line in the text file will be formatted as follow:<br />

distance-from-start,elevation<br />

The Save To XYZ... option allows registered users to save all of the positions and elevations along the path<br />

profile to a text file. Each line in the text file will be formatted as follow:<br />

x-coordinate,y-coordinate,elevation<br />

<strong>Global</strong> <strong>Map</strong>per User's Manual<br />

The Save LOS to KML... option allows registered users to save a 3D line of sight and, if selected, the Fresnel<br />

zone boundary lines, to a KML file for display in Google Earth.<br />

Pressing the Line of Sight... button brings up the Setup Line of Sight/Earth Curvature dialog (pictured below),<br />

which allows the user to configure a line of sight calculation along the selected path. You can only perform a<br />

line of sight analysis if exactly two points are in the path profile (e.g. line of sight analysis cannot be<br />

performed on multi-segment paths).<br />
