Waypoints List and/or map

Hello,


In several MAIW Packages, there are some Waypoints.

Is there a list of all waypoints created, or (better) a map with all waypoints drawing on it ?

Thanks a lot.

I have something similar to what you are asking. Let me check this evening if it can be shared as is.

This is something I did to find waypoints location for my use only. Try to explain how it works.
There are two files:
In MAIW Packages, for every package, are listed Aircraft, AFCAD, VCPMOD, Traffic file, Waypoint, Scenery and Library used.
The Long_Lat_Google.xlsx is used to convert the coordinates from the Airport_XXX.txt in a Google Earth format.
From the Airport_XXX.txt copy the wayipoints in Column A
Copy from column A to column B
Select the waypoints from column B, then from the menu bar, select Data>Text to Column. From the Pop-up window select Delimited button, NEXT, select Tab; Comma, Space, NEXT and then Finish.
The result in Column H in green, is the value that can be entered in Google Earth that bring you to the waypoint.
Hope it is clear.

For all Waypoints you put in Google, (if you use the Google Software, not the website), you can save them in a singnle KML (or KMZ) file.

The KML file should have been the final result of all that work... :wink:

Created from the new MAIW Flightplans V.1.0(1) files.

Double click the .kml file and Google Earth should show the WPs with labels..


Any comments, please don't hesitate.
