Creating Lines from track logs

This is an effective method to create an exact line for your project. Generally it is better to use recorded tracks as only a starting point for creating lines as often they contain too much detail, and way finding errors.

Creating Lines from track logs

If you have used the Walk a Line (proximity) function in the app, track logs will be listed in the project records.

Select the track line you are wanting to create a track log from

It will then display as a map with your track on it

Click on the edit tab and the coordinates will show in the data field, copy the coordinates

Select lines - Add line

Place the copied GPX coordinates in the data field

Select “Place line using GPX file”

Save the line

Note: if the file has created with speech marks at the beginning and end these will need to be removed before the file will  work properly.
