3D Maps in Map feature
Very nice improvement to the Map feature done by Jon srcejon. You will find all details in the Map feature readme.
New dependencies:
- qtwebengine5-dev and qtbase5-private-dev.
- You may need to build that latest version of aptdec.
It goes along with a whole bunch of changes in various plugins to adapt to 3D maps and more (PR #1127):
APT Demod Updates
- Add projection of image on to 3D map.
- Add support for temperature map.
- Add support for colour palettes for image enhancements.
- Fix IR channel names.
ADS-B Demod Updates
- Add support for animated 3D models.
- Downloaded zipped airplane database.
- Add table context menu.
- Add airline and country images to text bubbles on maps.
- Fix calculation of ground speed when on surface.
- Fix position calculation when aircraft transistions from surface to air.
- Fix altitude calculation when Q-bit is set.
- Speed up processing of large log files.
- Add new airline logos.
AIS update
- Add support for 3D models.
- Remove vessels from table if not heard from in last 10 minutes.
- Add columns in table for vessel length, time last position & message were received and number of messages received.
- Add context menu.
Satellite Tracker updates
- Add support for replaying of passes in the past, where current time is determined from File Input device.
- Add latitude and longitude to satellite data table.
- Update ground track generation to better work with 3D map.
- Add support for 3D models.
- Add Cubesat image for 2D map.
- Send LOS to other plugins, when no device settings are setup.
- Pass TLEs to other plugins, so they can use a consistent copy for replays.
Spectrum calibration
Possibility to attach a calibrated value to a corresponding relative power value at specific points in frequency. A new button in the spectrum gui allows to switch between relative and calibrated values. When right clicking on the button a dialog opens to manage the calibration points and options.
