None String updated in the repository Trail Sense Trail Sense User Guide Chinese (Simplified Han script)	English ## Units The units can be adjusted in Settings > Units. By default, the units are set based on your device's language settings. - Distance: The unit to display distance measurements. - Pressure: The unit to display barometric pressure measurements. - Temperature: The unit to display temperature measurements. - Weight: The unit to display weight measurements. - Coordinate format: The format to display geographic coordinates. - Location share map: The link to use when sharing a location. - Use 24-hour format: Whether to use a 24-hour clock. - Add leading zero to time: Whether to add a leading zero to the time (for example, 01:00 instead of 1:00). ## Sensors > Compass Compass settings can be found in Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > Compass. Some devices may not have a compass sensor, but you will still be able to set declination. ### Azimuth The current compass direction (azimuth) is displayed at the top of the compass settings. As you change settings, it will update to show the new direction. ### Calibrate The reported accuracy of the compass is shown. If it is low, you can click this option to view instructions on how to calibrate. ### Source - Magnetometer + Gyro: This is the default source and should work on most devices. It uses the magnetometer and gyroscope sensors to determine the direction. When the gyroscope is added in, the reading is typically less noisy. This source is provided by your phone's manufacturer. - Magnetometer: This source only uses the magnetometer sensor to determine the direction. This source is provided by your phone's manufacturer. - Magnetometer + Gyro (Custom): This source is similar to the Magnetometer + Gyro source, but the calculations are done by Trail Sense. If the Magnetometer + Gyro source is not working correctly, try this source. - Legacy (Trail Sense): This source is similar to the Magnetometer source, but the calculations are done by Trail Sense. If the Magnetometer source is not working correctly, try this source. - Legacy (Android): This source is provided by Android and is not recommended to use. It is only included for compatibility with older devices, but could potentially work well on some devices. ### Smoothing To reduce noise in compass readings, you can increase the smoothing setting. If using a source that has a gyroscope, a value of 1 is recommended. Otherwise, experiment with increasing this value until the compass appears to be working correctly when you rotate your phone. However, if you increase the smoothing too much, Trail Sense may ignore real compass changes. ### True north To display true north instead of magnetic north, enable the "True north" setting. This will adjust the compass reading to account for magnetic declination, and it will match most maps. ### Magnetic declination Magnetic declination is the difference between magnetic north and true north. You should ensure this is correct regardless of whether you are using true north or magnetic north. ### Auto adjust declination Enabling the "Auto adjust declination" setting will automatically adjust the declination based on your location. ### Declination override If you would prefer to manually set the declination, you can disable the "Auto adjust declination" setting and use the "Declination override" setting to set the declination. You can find the declination for your location on most maps or online. You can also click the "Set override from GPS" option to set the declination based on your current location (only sets it once). ## Sensors > GPS GPS settings can be found in Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > GPS. If your phone supports it, multiple GNSS systems will be used (such as GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou). ### Location Source You can choose to mock your location by disabling the "Auto adjust location" setting. This will enable the "Location override" setting where you can manually set your location. When "Auto adjust location" is enabled, the location will be determined by your device's GPS. ### Require satellite fix To get a more accurate location, Trail Sense requires at least 4 satellites to have a fix. If you are having trouble getting a location, you can disable this setting to allow for a location with fewer satellites (or if your phone does not support satellite counts). ### Cache Trail Sense automatically caches your last location to quickly load details in certain tools. You can clear this cache temporarily using the "Clear cache" option in the GPS settings. ## Sensors > Altimeter The altimeter is used to measure altitude. To adjust altimeter settings, go to Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > Altimeter. ### Elevation The current elevation is displayed at the top of the altimeter settings. As you change settings, it will update to show the new elevation. ### Source - GPS + Barometer: This is the default source and should work on most devices with a barometer. It combines the GPS and barometer to determine the altitude. - GPS: This source only uses the GPS to determine the altitude. It is less accurate than the GPS + Barometer source. - Barometer: This source only uses the barometer to determine the altitude. It is more accurate than the GPS source, but may drift over time and you will need to calibrate it before use. - Manual: This source allows you to manually set the altitude. This is useful if you know the altitude of your location and it will not change. ### GPS + Barometer settings - Force calibration interval: You can choose to force the altimeter to recalibrate using the GPS every so often. This is useful to compensate for drift in the barometer, which may be due to changes in weather or location. - Continuous calibration: You can choose to continuously calibrate the altimeter using the GPS. This is useful if you are moving around a lot and want the most accurate altitude reading. When this is enabled, it prefers the barometer reading, but will slightly adjust it based on the GPS reading. - Reset calibration: You can choose to reset the calibration of the altimeter. This is useful if you are in a new location and want to recalibrate the barometer. ### GPS settings - Samples: The number of GPS samples to use when determining the altitude. A higher number will give a more accurate reading, but will take longer to calculate. - NMEA elevation correction: The elevation provided by the GPS needs to be corrected to match the actual elevation. If this setting is enabled, it will use the correction factor provided by the GPS. If it is disabled, it will use the correction factor provided by Trail Sense, which may be more accurate. ### Barometer / manual settings - Elevation override: If you are using the barometer or manual source, you can set the elevation manually. This is useful if you know the elevation of your location. If using the barometer source, this setting is used to calibrate the barometer and will change as you move. - Set override from GPS: You can choose to set the elevation override using the GPS if you don't know your current elevation (only sets it once). - Set override from barometer: If you know the current sea level pressure for your location, you can set the elevation override using the barometer (only sets it once). Only available on devices with a barometer. ## Sensors > Barometer The barometer is used to measure air pressure. It can be used to predict the weather or determine your altitude. To adjust barometer settings, go to Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > Barometer. If you have the Weather Monitor (see the Weather tool) enabled, you will see a chart of the barometric pressure history as recorded by your device. The colored line represents the calibrated pressure while the gray line represents the raw pressure. When you adjust the settings, the chart will update to show the new calibrated pressure. The goal is to have the colored line smoothly follow the gray line. ### Sea level pressure Barometric pressure changes with altitude, which makes it difficult to compare pressure readings from different locations. To make pressure readings more consistent, enable the "Sea level pressure" setting. This will adjust the pressure reading to what it would be at sea level. Using this setting will increase the accuracy of weather predictions. ### Smoothing To reduce noise in pressure readings, increase the smoothing setting. A value of around 15% is recommended. However, if you increase the smoothing too much, Trail Sense may ignore real pressure changes. ### Factor in temperature To get a more accurate pressure reading, you can factor in the temperature. This will make the reading more prone to noise from your phone's thermometer, but it will also give you a more accurate reading of the actual air pressure. ### Barometer offset To calibrate the barometer, you can adjust the barometer offset. After tapping on the 'Barometer offset' setting, enter the current pressure as reported by a reliable source (must match your "sea level pressure" setting - most weather websites report sea level pressure). This will adjust the current pressure to match the reported pressure. Note, if you are using sea level pressure the calibration accuracy will vary with the GPS accuracy. You can click 'Reset calibration' to reset the calibration of the barometer. This will remove any offset that was previously set. ## Sensors > Thermometer Thermometer settings can be found in Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > Thermometer. ### Source On most phones, you should use the historic temperature source as it will be more accurate. - Historic temperature is estimated from 30 years of historical data. It's usually accurate, but not during extreme weather. You can calibrate it if it's wrong for your location. - Sensor temperature is read from the phone's built-in thermometer. It's often inaccurate because it's affected by the phone's CPU and battery. You can calibrate it to improve its accuracy. If you power off your phone for a while, you will get a more accurate reading from the sensor. ### Smoothing To reduce noise in temperature readings, you can increase the smoothing setting. If using the historic temperature source, this is normally not needed. If the Weather Monitor (see the Weather tool) is enabled, you will see a chart of the temperature history as recorded by your device. The colored line represents the calibrated temperature while the gray line represents the raw temperature. When you adjust the settings, the chart will update to show the new calibrated temperature. The goal is to have the colored line smoothly follow the gray line. #### Updating recorded temperatures If you change the temperature source to "Historic", you can choose to update all previously recorded temperatures. This will replace the old temperatures with the estimated temperature from the historic data. This is useful if you previously recorded temperatures with the sensor and then switched to historic temperatures. ### Calibrating 1. Reset the thermometer calibration in Trail Sense. 2. Put your phone in a cold place for 10 minutes. 3. Note the temperature shown in Trail Sense as the minimum phone temperature. 4. Note the actual temperature of the cold place using an actual thermometer. 5. Put your phone in a warm place for 10 minutes. 6. Note the temperature shown in Trail Sense as the maximum phone temperature. 7. Note the actual temperature of the warm place using an actual thermometer. 8. Go to the Thermometer sensor settings in Trail Sense and enter the minimum and maximum temperatures you recorded, along with the actual temperatures you recorded. Caution: Refer to your phone's manual to identify the designed operating temperatures, do not exceed these when performing calibration. ## Sensors > Camera Camera settings can be found in Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > Camera. ### Augmented reality projection The projection method determines how points get displayed onto the camera view. If you are experiencing issues with the points not aligning with the real world, try changing the projection method. - Estimated Intrinsics: This is the default method and should work on most devices. It uses the camera's properties to estimate the projection. - Manual Intrinsics: This is similar to the estimated intrinsics method, except that the calculations are done by the manufacturer. On some devices this does not work correctly. - Perspective: This is a simple projection method that factors in the distance of the point from the camera. It is similar to intrinsics, but may be less accurate in some cases. - Linear: This is the simplest projection method (also the fastest). It does not factor in distances. ## Sensors > Cell signal Cell signal settings can be found in Trail Sense Settings > Sensors > Cell signal. ### Refresh signal cache Your phone reports the current cell signal strength, but it may be outdated. You can choose to forcefully refresh the cell signal cache to get the current signal strength. This feature is only used by the Paths tool (Backtrack) when Settings > Paths > Record cell signal is enabled. ## Privacy Privacy settings can be adjusted in Settings > Privacy. - Location: Clicking this will take you to the GPS settings, where you can choose to use a mocked location. - Prevent screenshots: Prevents screenshots from being taken while the app is open. Note: Trail Sense does not use the Internet and all data is stored locally on your device. ## Errors Some tools such as Navigation and Astronomy display error banners at the top of the screen. These banners can be disabled in Settings > Errors. - Compass unavailable: The compass is not available on your device. - GPS unavailable: The GPS is not available on your device. - Location not set: The location is mocked but has not been set (uses 0, 0). - Compass accuracy: The compass accuracy is low. - GPS timeouts: The GPS has timed out and was unable to determine your location. ## Experimental Experimental features can be enabled in Settings > Experimental. These features are not ready for general use and may not work as expected. ## Backup / restore When switching to a new device or reinstalling the app, it may be helpful to backup your data and settings. This can be done in Settings > Backup / Restore. - Backup: Creates a backup of your data and settings. This will save as a zip file which is unencrypted and contains location data, so only send it to people you trust. - Restore: Restores a backup of your data and settings. This will permanently overwrite your current data and settings. You can restore from an older version of the app, but cannot restore from a newer version. ## Tools Settings for each tool can be adjusted in the Settings > Tools section. For more information, see the guide for each tool. ## Theme Theme related settings can be adjusted in Settings > Theme. - Theme: The theme to use for the app. - Light: A theme with a white background. - Dark: A theme with a dark background. - Black: A theme with a black background. - System: A theme that follows the system settings. - System (black): A theme that follows the system settings with a black background when dark mode is enabled. - Sunrise/sunset: A theme that changes between light and dark based on the time of day. - Night: A theme with a black background and a red filter to help maintain night vision. - Dynamic colors: Whether to use your device's dynamic colors in the app, if disabled or unavailable colors in Trail Sense will be a shade of orange. - Compass dynamic colors: Whether to use your device's dynamic colors in the compass (cardinal directions and certain markers on maps). - Compact mode: Whether to use a more compact layout for the bottom bar (thinner and does not display labels). ## About You can find additional information about Trail Sense in Settings > About. - Version: The version of the app you are using. - Privacy policy: A link to the privacy policy. - Email developer: A link to send an email to the developer for feedback or support. - GitHub: A link to the GitHub repository (source code) for Trail Sense. - Licenses: A list of open source licenses used in Trail Sense. ## Quick action You can enable the Settings quick action in the settings for the tab where you want it to appear.

None String updated in the repository Trail Sense Trail Sense User Guide Chinese (Simplified Han script)	English The Photo Maps tool can be used to convert a photo into a map. It's essential to always carry a physical map as a backup and validate Trail Sense's accuracy. Photo Maps complements other map apps and physical maps, serving as a convenient way to convert photos into maps rather than a replacement for them. ## Creating a map To create a map, you have three options: take a photo of an existing map, import a file, or generate a blank map. 1. Tap the '+' button located in the bottom-right corner and select your preferred method for importing the map: - Camera: Capture a picture of your map, ensuring the entire map is within the frame. - File: Choose a file from your device (JPG, PNG, or PDF). If your PDF contains geospatial data, it will be used for automatic map calibration. - Blank: Generate a blank map based on a specified location and map size. By default, it centers the map on your current location. The size is the distance from the center to the corner. No further calibration is required when using this option. 2. Enter a name for the map and click 'OK'. 3. Crop the photo to match the map's boundaries by dragging the crop box's corners to the map edges. You can click 'Preview' to visualize the cropped map. Note that changes to the crop cannot be made after clicking 'Next'. 4. Calibrate the map using two known locations: - Input the real-world location in the provided field, such as a trail sign, trailhead, or point of interest. - Tap on the map to select where the location is. - Utilize 'Previous'/'Next' to switch between calibration points. - Once you have two calibration points, click 'Preview' to preview the calibrated map, displaying nearby paths and beacons. - You can recenter the map on your screen by clicking the recenter button in the top-right corner. - Use pinch-to-zoom or the zoom buttons in the bottom-right to more accurately select locations. - Calibration automatically aligns the map with North facing up, with the calculated rotation amount displayed under the map name at the top. - At any point, you can save the calibration by clicking 'Next' + 'Done'. 5. Save the calibration by tapping 'Done'. ## Calibration tips ### Calibrating while hiking - Point 1: Choose the trail sign where you photographed the map or the trailhead. - Point 2: Select the first trail fork you encounter. If no trail fork is present, use a point of interest on the map, such as a lake, peak, or landmark. ### Calibrating from the map grid If your map features gridlines: 1. Find the UTM zone number, which is a one or two-digit number followed by a letter (ex. "16T"). If it's not present on the map, estimate it by entering your approximate latitude and longitude in Trail Sense's Convert tool. For example, you can enter 10 for latitude and 45 for longitude. 2. Locate the Easting and Northing values on the map's borders. They are usually marked and can have 3 to 6 or 7 digits. Add three zeros if there are only 3 digits (e.g., 123 becomes 123000). Easting will be on the top or bottom, Northing will be on the left or right. 3. Look at the grid lines on the map to identify the grid zone where your location is. These lines represent the first digits of your location (e.g., 123000E and 234000N). 4. For increased precision, divide the grid into 10 equal sections vertically and horizontally. Determine which line your location is closest to within the grid. Use a ruler, like the one in Trail Sense, for accuracy. For example, if your location is two-tenths to the right and one-tenth up from the bottom-right corner of the grid, your new location will be 123200E and 234100N. 5. In Trail Sense, enter the UTM location and tap the same point on the photo map. For example, enter "16T 123200E 234100N". 6. Repeat for the second calibration point. For the best accuracy, use a point that is far away from the first point. The intersections of gridlines are the easiest calibration points. ### Calibrating from an online source If you have Internet access, you can look up the coordinates of a map feature (e.g., mountain summit, trailhead). Then in Trail Sense, tap the same location on the map and enter the coordinates. ### Finding a geospatial PDF A good source for geospatial PDFs is [CalTopo](https://caltopo.com), though there are many other sources available online. ## Using a map Once you've created a map, you can use it for navigation. The map displays your location, elevation, paths, and beacons. You can drag to pan, pinch to zoom, or tap the zoom buttons in the bottom-right. To recenter the map on your screen, click the recenter button in the top-right. The map's scale is shown in the bottom-right. Click the GPS button in the bottom-right to center the map on your location. Clicking it again will lock both your location and orientation, while a final click unlocks it. The compass icon in the top-right always points North. By default, the map will align with North, roughly facing up so that the map is square with the screen. You can change this so the map is aligned with North facing up (rotated) by disabling Settings > Photo Maps > 'Keep map facing up'. Note: There's currently a bug where panning and zooming are a bit off when this setting is disabled. ### Using beacons and navigating If you've created beacons, they will appear on the map. When navigating to a beacon, the distance, direction, and estimated time of arrival (ETA) are displayed at the bottom. A line is drawn from your location to the beacon. To cancel navigation, click the 'X' button in the bottom-right. You can initiate navigation from the map by tapping a beacon or long-pressing a map point and selecting 'Navigate'. To create a beacon from the map, long-press a map point and choose 'Beacon.' This opens the 'Create Beacon' screen with the location filled in. For further details on beacons, refer to the 'Beacons' guide. ### Using paths If you've created paths, they will be visible on the map. To create a path from the map, follow the instructions in the 'Measuring distance on a map' section below. For further details on paths, refer to the 'Paths' guide. ## Measuring distance on a map You can measure distances on a map by opening the map, clicking the menu button in the top-right, and selecting 'Measure' or 'Create path'. Tap the map to place markers, and the total distance will be displayed at the bottom. To undo the last marker, click the undo button in the bottom left. Cancel by clicking the 'X' button in the bottom-right. You can also convert the drawn path into a saved path by clicking the 'Create path' button at the bottom. For a quick measurement from your location to a point, long-press that point on the map and click 'Distance'. ## Recalibrating a map To recalibrate a map, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Calibrate'. Follow the instructions above to recalibrate. ## Changing map projection If your map points are not aligning correctly after calibrating (try calibrating again with different points first), consider changing the map projection. To do this, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and select 'Change projection'. ## Rename a map To rename a map, click the menu button on the map row you wish to rename, then select 'Rename' and provide a new name. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Rename'. ## Delete a map To delete a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to remove, then select 'Delete'. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Delete'. ## Export a map To export a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to export, then select 'Export'. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Export'. This action exports the map as a PDF, and if calibrated, it will convert it into a geospatial PDF. ## Print a map To print a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to print, then select 'Print'. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Print'. This opens the system print dialog, enabling you to print the map. ## Change the resolution of a map To alter the resolution of a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to adjust, then select 'Change resolution'. A dialog will appear, allowing you to switch between low (lowest quality and smallest file size), medium (moderate quality and file size), and high (highest quality and largest file size) resolutions. Keep in mind that changing the resolution is a permanent action and cannot be undone. By default, Trail Sense will automatically reduce the map resolution on import. To change this, disable Settings > Photo Maps > 'Reduce photo resolution' or 'Reduce PDF resolution'. ## Organizing maps You can organize maps into groups. To create a group, click the '+' button in the bottom-right of the map list and select 'Group'. Give the group a name and click 'OK'. To add maps to the group, click on the group in the list and follow the map creation instructions. The map will be added to the chosen group. To change the group of an existing map, click the menu button on the map row you want to move, select 'Move to', and choose the target group. To rename a group, click the menu button on the group row you want to rename, then select 'Rename' and provide a new name. You can delete a group (along with all maps within it) by clicking the menu button on the group row you wish to remove, then selecting 'Delete'. ## Searching for maps To search through your created maps, use the search bar at the top of the map list. This search encompasses the current group and all subgroups. Additionally, you can sort maps by distance, time, or name by clicking the menu button in the top-right and selecting 'Sort'. The preview of the map is displayed on the left side of the map row. You can disable this preview in Settings > Photo Maps > 'Show map previews'. ## Quick action You can enable the Open Photo Map quick action in the settings for the tab where you want it to appear.

Chinese (Simplified Han script) 0 characters edited Current translation Needs editing “照片地图”工具可以用来将照片转换成地图。有必要带一张纸质地图作为备份，并验证 Trail Sense 的准确性。这个工具是对其他地图应用与纸质地图的补充，充当将照片转化成地图的便捷方式，而不是前者的替代品。 ## 创建地图创建地图有三种方式：拍摄已有地图的照片、导入文件与生成空白地图。 1. 点按右下角的 '+' 按钮，选择导入地图偏好的方式： - 相机：拍一张地图的照片，确保整张地图都在照片内。 - 文件：选择设备上的文件（JPG、PNG 或 PDF）。如果 PDF 文件包含地理空间数据，则会用于地图自动校准。 - 空白：根据指定位置与地图尺寸生成空白地图。默认情况下，地图以当前位置为中心；大小指的是地图中心到角落的距离。使用此选项时无需进一步校准。 2. 输入地图名称并点击“确定”。 3. 将剪裁框四角拖动到地图边缘，使照片大小与地图边界相吻合。你可以点击“预览”看到剪裁后的地图。请注意，在点击“下一步”后就无法修改裁剪范围。 4. 用两个已知位置校准地图： - 在提供的字段中输入现实世界位置，比如路标、路口或感兴趣的地点。 - 在地图上点按选择对应位置。 - 用“上一个”或“下一个”切换校准点。 - 设置两个校准点后，点击“预览”查看校准后地图，地图上会显示附近的路径与信标。 - 点击屏幕右上角的设置中心按钮，可以重新设置地图中心。 - 使用双指缩放或右下角的缩放按钮来更加精确地选择位置。 - 校准时会自动将地图朝北对齐，计算出的旋转数值会显示在顶部的地图名称下方。 - 任何时候都可以点击“下一步”与“完成”来保存校准。 5. 轻按“完成”保存校准。 ## 校准小提示 ### 在徒步旅行时校准 - 第一点：选择拍摄地图所在的路标处，或者选择路口。 - 第二点：选择你遇到的第一个岔路口。如果没有，则选择地图上感兴趣的点，比如湖泊、山峰与地标。 ### 用地图网格校准如果你的地图有网格线： 1. 找到 UTM 区号，这是一个一位或两位数，后面紧跟一个字母（比如“16T”）。如果地图上没有，可以在 Trail Sense 的“转换”工具中输入大致纬度与经度来估算。比如，经度可以输入 10，纬度输入 45。 2. 找到地图边界的东经与北纬数值。地图上通常会有标记，有 3 到 6 或 7 位。如果数值只有三位，则在末尾补三个零（比如 123 对应 123000）。东经标记在地图顶部或底部，北纬在左侧或右侧。 3. 看地图上的网格线，找出你所在的网格区域。这些线代表所在位置的第一位数字（比如 123000E 与 234000N）。 4. 若要提高精确度，可以将网格沿横纵两个方向十等分。确定到所在位置距离最短的网格线。使用尺子（比如 Trail Sense 中的）以求精确度。举个例子，如果你的位置在距离网格右下角向左十分之二、向上十分之一的位置，新位置就是 123200E 与 234100N。 5. 在 Trail Sense 中输入 UTM 位置，并点击照片地图上的对应点。比如输入“16T 123200E 234100N”。 6. 对第二个校准点重复这些操作。若要力求精确，请使用距离第一个点较远的位置。网格线的交叉点是最容易校准的。 ### 用在线源校准如果可以联网，你可以查找地图特征点（比如山峰与路口）的坐标。然后在 Trail Sense 点击地图上的相同位置并输入坐标。 ### 寻找地理空间 PDF 文件 [CalTopo](https://caltopo.com) 是获取地理空间 PDF 的一个很好的来源，但网上也有许多其他的可供使用。 ## 使用地图创建地图后，你就可以将其用来导航了。地图会显示你的位置、路径与信标。你可以拖动手指平移地图，伸缩双指或点击右下角的缩放按钮缩放地图。点击右上角的重新调整按钮，来重新调整屏幕上地图的位置。右下角会显示地图的比例尺。点击右下角的 GPS 按钮可以以所在位置为中心移动地图。再点击一次会锁定所在位置与方向，最后点一次则会解锁。右上角的指南针图标总会指向北方。默认情况下，地图会向北对齐，方向大致朝上，让地图正对屏幕。你可以禁用“设置 > 照片地图 > 保持地图正面朝上”，让地图（旋转到）向北对齐。注意：禁用此设置时，平移与缩放会有些偏差。 ### 使用信标和导航功能你创建的信标会显示在地图上。导航到信标时，底部会显示距离、方向与预计到达时间（ETA）。你的位置到信标之间会由直线连接。要取消导航，请点击右下角的 “X”按钮。可以通过点击信标或长按地图点并选择“导航”，从地图上启动导航。要从地图上创建信标，请长按地图点并选择“信标”。这将打开“创建信标”界面，并自动填入位置。要进一步了解信标，请参见“信标”指南。 ### 使用路径你创建的路径会显示在地图上。要从地图创建路径，请按照下文“测量图上距离”一节的说明操作。要进一步了解路径，请参见“路径”指南。 ## 测量图上距离打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，选择“测量”或“创建路径”，即可在地图上测量距离。点击地图放置标记，总距离将显示在底部。点击左下角的撤销按钮可以撤销最后一个标记。点击右下角的“X”按钮即可取消。你还可以点击底部的“创建路径”按钮，将绘制的路径保存下来。要快速测量从你的位置到某一点的距离，请长按地图上的该点并点击”距离”。 ## 重新校准地图要重新校准地图，请打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，然后选择“校准”，按照上文的说明重新校准。 ## 改变地图投影如果校准后地图点没有正确对齐（先试试用不同的点再次校准），请考虑改变地图投影。要这样做，请打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，然后选择“改变投影”。 ## 重命名地图要重命名地图，请点击待重命名的地图行的菜单按钮，然后选择“重命名”并提供新名称。也可以打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，选择“重命名”。 ## 删除地图要删除地图，请单击待删除的地图行的菜单按钮，然后选择“删除”。也可以打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，然后选择“删除”。 ## 导出地图要导出地图，请点击待导出的地图行的菜单按钮，然后选择“导出”。也可以打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，然后选择“导出”。此操作会将地图导出为 PDF 格式，如果地图经过校准，则会将其转换为地理空间 PDF 格式。 ## 打印地图要打印地图，请点击要打印的地图行的菜单按钮，然后选择“打印”。也可以打开地图，点击右上角的菜单按钮，然后选择“打印”。这将打开系统打印对话框，使你能打印地图。 ## 改变地图分辨率要更改照片地图的分辨率，请点击要调整的地图行的菜单按钮，然后选择“更改分辨率”。此时会出现一个对话框，其中可以选择低分辨率（最低质量，最小文件大小）、中分辨率（中等质量与文件大小）和高分辨率（最高质量，最大文件大小）。请记住，更改分辨率是永久性操作，无法撤销。默认情况下，Trail Sense 在导入地图时会自动降低其分辨率。要改变此行为，请禁用“设置 > 照片地图 > 降低地图分辨率”。 ## 组织地图你可以将地图组织成组。要创建新分组，请点击地图列表右下方的“+”按钮并选择“分组”，为其命名，然后点击“确定”。要将地图添加到分组中，请点击列表中的分组，然后按照地图创建说明进行操作。地图将被添加到所选的组中。要更改现有地图分组，请点击要移动的地图行的菜单按钮，选择“移动到”，然后选择目标分组。要重新命名分组，请点击要重新命名的分组行的菜单按钮，选择“重命名”并提供新名称。单击要删除的分组行的菜单按钮，然后选择“删除”，即可删除此分组（以及其中的所有地图）。 ## 搜索地图用地图列表顶部的搜索框搜索已创建的地图。该搜索包括当前分组和所有子分组。此外，还可以点击右上角的菜单按钮并选择“排序”，按距离、时间或名称对地图进行排序。地图的预览显示在地图行的左侧，可以在“设置 > 照片地图 > 显示地图预览”中禁用。 2 weeks ago
None Source string changed Trail Sense Trail Sense User Guide Chinese (Simplified Han script)	English 43 characters edited Needs editing The Photo Maps tool can be used to convert a photo into a map. It's essential to always carry a physical map as a backup and validate Trail Sense's accuracy. Photo Maps complements other map apps and physical maps, serving as a convenient way to convert photos into maps rather than a replacement for them. ## Creating a map To create a map, you have three options: take a photo of an existing map, import a file, or generate a blank map. 1. Tap the '+' button located in the bottom-right corner and select your preferred method for importing the map: - Camera: Capture a picture of your map, ensuring the entire map is within the frame. - File: Choose a file from your device (JPG, PNG, or PDF). If your PDF contains geospatial data, it will be used for automatic map calibration. - Blank: Generate a blank map based on a specified location and map size. By default, it centers the map on your current location. The size is the distance from the center to the corner. No further calibration is required when using this option. 2. Enter a name for the map and click 'OK'. 3. Crop the photo to match the map's boundaries by dragging the crop box's corners to the map edges. You can click 'Preview' to visualize the cropped map. Note that changes to the crop cannot be made after clicking 'Next'. 4. Calibrate the map using two known locations: - Input the real-world location in the provided field, such as a trail sign, trailhead, or point of interest. - Tap on the map to select where the location is. - Utilize 'Previous'/'Next' to switch between calibration points. - Once you have two calibration points, click 'Preview' to preview the calibrated map, displaying nearby paths and beacons. - You can recenter the map on your screen by clicking the recenter button in the top-right corner. - Use pinch-to-zoom or the zoom buttons in the bottom-right to more accurately select locations. - Calibration automatically aligns the map with North facing up, with the calculated rotation amount displayed under the map name at the top. - At any point, you can save the calibration by clicking 'Next' + 'Done'. 5. Save the calibration by tapping 'Done'. ## Calibration tips ### Calibrating while hiking - Point 1: Choose the trail sign where you photographed the map or the trailhead. - Point 2: Select the first trail fork you encounter. If no trail fork is present, use a point of interest on the map, such as a lake, peak, or landmark. ### Calibrating from the map grid If your map features gridlines: 1. Find the UTM zone number, which is a one or two-digit number followed by a letter (ex. "16T"). If it's not present on the map, estimate it by entering your approximate latitude and longitude in Trail Sense's Convert tool. For example, you can enter 10 for latitude and 45 for longitude. 2. Locate the Easting and Northing values on the map's borders. They are usually marked and can have 3 to 6 or 7 digits. Add three zeros if there are only 3 digits (e.g., 123 becomes 123000). Easting will be on the top or bottom, Northing will be on the left or right. 3. Look at the grid lines on the map to identify the grid zone where your location is. These lines represent the first digits of your location (e.g., 123000E and 234000N). 4. For increased precision, divide the grid into 10 equal sections vertically and horizontally. Determine which line your location is closest to within the grid. Use a ruler, like the one in Trail Sense, for accuracy. For example, if your location is two-tenths to the right and one-tenth up from the bottom-right corner of the grid, your new location will be 123200E and 234100N. 5. In Trail Sense, enter the UTM location and tap the same point on the photo map. For example, enter "16T 123200E 234100N". 6. Repeat for the second calibration point. For the best accuracy, use a point that is far away from the first point. The intersections of gridlines are the easiest calibration points. ### Calibrating from an online source If you have Internet access, you can look up the coordinates of a map feature (e.g., mountain summit, trailhead). Then in Trail Sense, tap the same location on the map and enter the coordinates. ### Finding a geospatial PDF A good source for geospatial PDFs is [CalTopo](https://caltopo.com), though there are many other sources available online. ## Using a map Once you've created a map, you can use it for navigation. The map displays your location, elevation, paths, and beacons. You can drag to pan, pinch to zoom, or tap the zoom buttons in the bottom-right. To recenter the map on your screen, click the recenter button in the top-right. The map's scale is shown in the bottom-right. Click the GPS button in the bottom-right to center the map on your location. Clicking it again will lock both your location and orientation, while a final click unlocks it. The compass icon in the top-right always points North. By default, the map will align with North, roughly facing up so that the map is square with the screen. You can change this so the map is aligned with North facing up (rotated) by disabling Settings > Photo Maps > 'Keep map facing up'. Note: There's currently a bug where panning and zooming are a bit off when this setting is disabled. ### Using beacons and navigating If you've created beacons, they will appear on the map. When navigating to a beacon, the distance, direction, and estimated time of arrival (ETA) are displayed at the bottom. A line is drawn from your location to the beacon. To cancel navigation, click the 'X' button in the bottom-right. You can initiate navigation from the map by tapping a beacon or long-pressing a map point and selecting 'Navigate'. To create a beacon from the map, long-press a map point and choose 'Beacon.' This opens the 'Create Beacon' screen with the location filled in. For further details on beacons, refer to the 'Beacons' guide. ### Using paths If you've created paths, they will be visible on the map. To create a path from the map, follow the instructions in the 'Measuring distance on a map' section below. For further details on paths, refer to the 'Paths' guide. ## Measuring distance on a map You can measure distances on a map by opening the map, clicking the menu button in the top-right, and selecting 'Measure' or 'Create path'. Tap the map to place markers, and the total distance will be displayed at the bottom. To undo the last marker, click the undo button in the bottom left. Cancel by clicking the 'X' button in the bottom-right. You can also convert the drawn path into a saved path by clicking the 'Create path' button at the bottom. For a quick measurement from your location to a point, long-press that point on the map and click 'Distance'. ## Recalibrating a map To recalibrate a map, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Calibrate'. Follow the instructions above to recalibrate. ## Changing map projection If your map points are not aligning correctly after calibrating (try calibrating again with different points first), consider changing the map projection. To do this, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and select 'Change projection'. ## Rename a map To rename a map, click the menu button on the map row you wish to rename, then select 'Rename' and provide a new name. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Rename'. ## Delete a map To delete a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to remove, then select 'Delete'. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Delete'. ## Export a map To export a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to export, then select 'Export'. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Export'. This action exports the map as a PDF, and if calibrated, it will convert it into a geospatial PDF. ## Print a map To print a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to print, then select 'Print'. Alternatively, open the map, click the menu button in the top-right, and choose 'Print'. This opens the system print dialog, enabling you to print the map. ## Change the resolution of a map To alter the resolution of a map, click the menu button on the map row you want to adjust, then select 'Change resolution'. A dialog will appear, allowing you to switch between low (lowest quality and smallest file size), medium (moderate quality and file size), and high (highest quality and largest file size) resolutions. Keep in mind that changing the resolution is a permanent action and cannot be undone. By default, Trail Sense will automatically reduce the map resolution on import. To change this, disable Settings > Photo Maps > 'Reduce ~~map~~photo resolution' or 'Reduce PDF resolution'. ## Organizing maps You can organize maps into groups. To create a group, click the '+' button in the bottom-right of the map list and select 'Group'. Give the group a name and click 'OK'. To add maps to the group, click on the group in the list and follow the map creation instructions. The map will be added to the chosen group. To change the group of an existing map, click the menu button on the map row you want to move, select 'Move to', and choose the target group. To rename a group, click the menu button on the group row you want to rename, then select 'Rename' and provide a new name. You can delete a group (along with all maps within it) by clicking the menu button on the group row you wish to remove, then selecting 'Delete'. ## Searching for maps To search through your created maps, use the search bar at the top of the map list. This search encompasses the current group and all subgroups. Additionally, you can sort maps by distance, time, or name by clicking the menu button in the top-right and selecting 'Sort'. The preview of the map is displayed on the left side of the map row. You can disable this preview in Settings > Photo Maps > 'Show map previews'. ## Quick action You can enable the Open Photo Map quick action in the settings for the tab where you want it to appear. To use the quick action, tap the quick action button and the active map will be opened and locked to your location. If no map is active, the map list will be displayed.

None Resource updated Trail Sense Trail Sense User Guide Chinese (Simplified Han script)	The “`guides/en-US`” file was changed. a month ago
None String updated in the repository Trail Sense Trail Sense User Guide Chinese (Simplified Han script)	English The Tides tool helps you keep track of tides at a specific location. Trail Sense operates offline, so you'll need to manually input the tides you wish to monitor. ## Create a tide table Before venturing into coastal areas, consult an official tide table for accurate times and water heights. Once you have this information, follow these steps to import it into Trail Sense's Tide tool: 1. Click the tides button in the top-right corner of the screen. 2. Tap the '+' button in the bottom-right corner. 3. Optionally, provide a name and location for the tide. 4. Adjust the tide frequency, indicating how many high tides typically occur in a day (most places have 2, known as Semidiurnal). 5. Scroll down to the tide table section. 6. Click either 'H' for high tide or 'L' for low tide to toggle between them. 7. Select 'Time not set' and enter the date and time of the tide. 8. Optionally, click the '-' in the 'Height' column to input the tide's height. 9. To add another tide, tap the '+' button in the top-left corner of the table. 10. You can delete a tide by clicking the 'X' icon to the right of the tide. 11. The tide estimation method can be changed by clicking the 'Estimation method' dropdown. Tide clock is the default and assumes a fixed tidal cycle. Lunitidal interval uses the moon's position to estimate tides, and may be more accurate in some locations. 12. Save the tide table by clicking the checkmark in the top-right corner. For the best accuracy, input all tides for each relevant day. Trail Sense will distinguish between entered and estimated tides on the tide chart. For lunitidal estimations, you can choose between the following: - Auto: This will automatically calculate the lunitidal interval based on the entered high tides. Requires at least one high tide to be entered. - Local: Enter the lunitidal interval in hours and minutes for your location. This requires the location to be set, but does not require a tide table. - UTC/Greenwich: Enter the lunitidal interval in hours and minutes for UTC/Greenwich. This does not require a location or tide table. ## Viewing a tide table By default, the Tides tool displays the closest tide to your location when you open it. To change this, go to Settings > Tides > 'Show closest tide' to toggle between displaying the closest tide and the last tide you viewed. To select a different tide, click the tides button in the top-right corner of the screen. This opens a list of all the tide tables you've created. Simply click on a tide to view it. ## Tide chart The tide chart displays the tides for the current day. The X-axis represents time, while the Y-axis represents the tide height. A dot marks the current time on the chart. By default, today is selected, but you can change it by tapping the calendar icon at the top of the screen. Additionally, you can use the arrows to move to the next/previous date or long press the calendar to quickly jump to today's date. At the top of the screen, you'll find the current tide level and, if available, the tide's height. A down arrow means a falling tide, while an up arrow means a rising tide. The bottom of the screen displays a tide table for the current day. If the tide height is entered, it will be shown here; otherwise, it will be estimated. Estimated tides may not be entirely accurate and are based on the inputted tides. ## Editing a tide table You can edit a tide table with the following steps: 1. Click the tides button in the top-right corner of the screen. 2. Click the menu button to the right of the tide you wish to edit. 3. Select 'Edit.' 4. You'll be taken to the same screen used to create the tide table. Edit the table as needed. 5. Save your changes by clicking the checkmark in the top-right corner. ## Deleting a tide table You can delete a tide table using the following steps: 1. Click the tides button in the top-right corner of the screen. 2. Click the menu button to the right of the tide you want to delete. 3. Choose 'Delete.' ## Viewing tides on the map By default, tides with a location entered will appear on the Navigation tool's radar compass and Photo Maps. To hide/show a tide, follow these steps: 1. Click the tides button in the top-right corner of the screen. 2. Click the menu button to the right of the tide you wish to hide or show. 3. Select 'Hide' or 'Show.' ## Estimating tides without a tide table If you don't have access to a tide table, you can estimate tides using the Tides tool. Keep in mind that this is just an estimate, so it's always best to consult an officially published tide table when possible. If you know whether the tide is currently high or low, you can create a tide table with a single entry (using the current time and tide level), and the Tides tool will estimate the tidal cycle. This should only be used for short-term predictions, as accuracy decreases further away from the reference tide. ## Finding official tide tables To locate an official tide table, search the Internet for tides at your location. Here are some community-recommended sites offering tide tables: ### Worldwide - [tides4fishing](https://tides4fishing.com/) - [tide-forecast.com](https://www.tide-forecast.com/) - [SHOM](https://maree.shom.fr/) ### Germany - [BSH](https://www.bsh.de/DE/DATEN/Vorhersagen/Gezeiten/gezeiten_node.html) ### Netherlands - [Rijkswaterstaat](https://www.rijkswaterstaat.nl/water/waterdata-en-waterberichtgeving/waterdata/getij) ### UK - [UK Hydrographic Office: EasyTide](https://easytide.admiralty.co.uk/) ### UK + Ireland - [NTSLF Tides](https://ntslf.org/tides/predictions) ### USA - [NOAA Tides & Currents](https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/tide_predictions.html) - [Tides.net](https://tides.net/) ## Disclaimer Tide predictions are estimates and should not be relied upon exclusively. Whenever possible, use an official tide table and input the data into Trail Sense for accuracy. Chinese (Simplified Han script) 0 characters edited Current translation Empty a month ago

In mountainous regions, take extra precautions when above the treeline, as weather can be more severe and you are more exposed to the elements. ### Precipitation You can generally continue outdoor activities in light precipitation. However, if it starts precipitating heavily, seek shelter. Be aware of the risk of hypothermia, and take steps to stay warm and dry. Be cautious near rivers and streams during heavy rainfall, as they can rise rapidly and become dangerous. Blizzards can lead to whiteout conditions, severely reducing visibility. If caught in a blizzard, seek shelter immediately and stay warm and dry. ### Temperature and humidity In cold weather, dress in layers and wear a hat and gloves to prevent heat loss. Stay dry, as wet clothing can cause you to lose body heat more quickly. In hot weather, stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade. Wear sunscreen and sun-protective clothing to protect yourself from sun exposure. High humidity can make it feel hotter and make cooling off more difficult. Temperature decreases by about 3.5°F (2°C) for every 1,000 feet (305 meters) of elevation gain. ### Wind In cold conditions, wind can make it feel even colder, increasing the risk of hypothermia and frostbite. Dress in layers and wear a hat and gloves to protect yourself from the wind. Be cautious of unstable trees and branches in windy conditions, as they can be hazardous. In desert environments, wind can cause sandstorms, which reduce visibility and make breathing difficult. Seek shelter during a sandstorm and protect your eyes and mouth with a bandana or cloth. Prevailing winds are winds that blow consistently in one direction over time. While local geography and bodies of water can affect wind patterns, general patterns are as follows: - 60° N to 90° N: Winds generally blow from the east. - 30° N to 60° N: Winds generally blow from the west. - 0° to 30° N: Winds generally blow from the northeast. - 0° to 30° S: Winds generally blow from the southeast. - 30° S to 60° S: Winds generally blow from the west. - 60° S to 90° S: Winds generally blow from the east. ### Fog Fog reduces visibility, making navigation difficult. If hiking in fog, stay on marked trails and use a map, compass, or GPS to navigate. Watch your footing carefully. ### Lightning If caught outdoors during a thunderstorm, seek shelter immediately. Avoid tall trees and bodies of water, but get out of open areas. If you're in an open area, crouch down on the balls of your feet and cover your ears to reduce the risk of lightning strikes. If you feel your hair stand on end or hear a crackling noise, you are in danger of being struck by lightning. You can estimate how far away a thunderstorm is by counting the seconds between a flash of lightning and the sound of thunder. Divide the number of seconds by 5 to get the distance in miles. One mile is about 1.6 kilometers. Any storm within 6 miles (10 kilometers) is a threat. ### Sun On days with a high UV index, wear sunscreen and sun-protective clothing. In hot climates, stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade. ### Smoke Wildfires can cause smoke that travels long distances. Avoid outdoor activities on days with poor air quality if possible. ## Climate The climate of a region refers to its average weather conditions over time. Understanding the climate helps you prepare for the typical weather you'll encounter. Key factors to consider when thinking about climate include: - Daily high and low temperatures - Precipitation amounts - Humidity levels - Wind patterns ## Forecasting You can learn to forecast weather by observing the signs around you. The more signs you notice, the more accurate your forecast will be. ### Signs of worsening weather - Cloud cover increases - Clouds start growing vertically (into an anvil shape) - This indicates a thunderstorm - Clouds darken - Clouds move quickly - Clouds lower - Wind speed increases - Temperature suddenly drops - Barometric pressure drops - Faster drops indicate more severe weather - Wind direction changes, opposite the prevailing wind - Animals become quiet - Humidity increases - You see lightning or hear thunder - You smell rain (called petrichor) ### Signs of improving weather - Cloud cover decreases - Wind speed decreases - Temperature rises - Barometric pressure rises - Wind direction changes to match the prevailing wind - Animals become active - Humidity decreases ## Tides Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun. Tides can affect outdoor activities, especially near the coast. A receding tide can lead to rip currents, which are dangerous for swimmers. Check the tide tables before heading to the coast. Tide tables can be found online or in local newspapers. ![](file:///android_asset/survival_guide/tides.webp) [Image source](https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/education/tutorial_tides/tides07_cycles.html#1) ### Semidiurnal tides Semidiurnal tides have two high tides and two low tides each day. If you know the time of high tide, the next low tide will be about 6 hours later, and the following high tide will be about 6 hours after that. Mixed tides Mixed tides are a type of semidiurnal tide, but the heights of the high and/or low tides vary throughout the day. ### Diurnal tides Diurnal tides have one high tide and one low tide each day. If you know the time of high tide, the next low tide will be about 12 hours later, and the next high tide will be about 12 hours after that. ## Night You can estimate the time until sunset by holding your hand horizontally with your fingers together and counting the number of finger widths between the sun and the horizon. Each finger width represents roughly 15 minutes. On nights with a nearly full moon, you can use the moonlight to help navigate. Navigating in the dark is not recommended, but if necessary, use a flashlight or headlamp to light your way. Chinese (Simplified Han script) 0 characters edited Current translation Empty a month ago
