KML or KMZ overlay in Map Pilot

When flying mapping missions in areas with "old maps" it would be nice to draw a polygon in Google Earth and then import it in Map Pilot as a overlay on the existing map (as in Mission Planner).

Example: you want to make a model of a new road which on the map is only forest.

Best regards

I think it is a very nice idea if dronesmadeeasy's team can do it (Making the Plan first on Google earth then Importing it into Map Pilot App).

Please refer to the following article about getting set up to import externally defined markers and basemaps into Map Pilot:

Great stuff :D did already some test , after the app crashed I did get the line's to show up cashing ?? .

It does make defining the area a lot easier. If the weather is better again i hope for a real life test. Keep up the good work !

You are too fast.

Check out step 6 here that makes it redownload changes:http://support.dronesmadeeasy.com/hc/en-us/articles/207718763-Importing-markers-lines-and-polygons-with-KML-GeoJSON-or-GPX-files

It can also take a bit of time for the changes in Mapbox to be available for Map Pilot to download.

Hi. I have tested to draw a polygon in Mapbox and also import a polygon from Google Earth to Mapbox. Then enter the MapID and API Token into Map Pilot and the polygon shows on the map, perfect! Thanks a lot!
