Thread: iGO Speedcam (DISCUSSION)

@lunapark

migrating radars?, I haven’t heard of that, this file is only a conversion. If there is an error in the *txt, then it is also in the *spc

pay close attention to line 7097 of the txt file, I don't know what software you use to extract the spc data and if this is the cause or if it is a post-processing handling error, but this error positions this radar in the French zone

this is only an insignificant error among thousands of radars contained in this txt, I don't know what software you use to convert the spc, but either it comes from him, or it is due to poor human manipulation in post -processing, if the positioning had remained within the Italian territorial limits it would have gone unnoticed but in this case we cannot miss it when displayed on a map.: txt file as first screenshoot with bad radar in fernch location, spc file as second without error

One thing is certain because I checked it, the SPC does not contain any errors

What’s interesting is that in TomTom there is no speed on the roads at all, I haven’t done many tests, if this is not the case, write, but without speed on the roads the entire warning system breaks down, this also applies to speedcam.txt, there is a lot of information in these files with speed 0 or no speed (SCDB base, POI base) in speedcam.txt Truck and iTruck (AF Mod) the same principle. In general, sticking to the concept, I don’t see any point in installing TomTom cards.
I usually test everything on cards HERE, and I don't have such issues, so pay attention to this problem with cards TomTom.

FAQ - mini

Still, some points need to be clarified, 03 in file *spc this is code 4, since *spc uses encoding ID.

8.844625473022461,45.64521789550781,03 - Average speed camera : End of zone,130,1,126
8.844849586486816,45.645111083984375,03 - Average speed camera : Start of zone,130,1,120


And second, the opening and closing of the section in base OSC is always carried out even if the average speed section ends and starts again, since the base is not only intended for the Pongo skin, there are also other skins and other navigation programs. Today, the OSC base is the only base where cameras for medium-speed sections are divided into start and finish.

8.8446254,45.645217,4,5,1,126
8.8448495,45.645111,4,130,1,120

I no longer artificially create closing sections of average speed in files for the database POIbase, since it is not possible to systematize everything that is put on the map by drivers while driving, this is their choice and it is far from reality.

4 - (35 Average Speed Camera + Finish 5 km h)

This is especially bad for Italy, in this country the medium speed sections end and a new section begins, users of base POIbase pass the section and mark it as completed, in fact a new medium speed section has begun.

And Third, @BIRBANTE, I think that before April 2024 I am not going to visit your site, unfortunately this is a waste of time. Then I will look at your crafts with encoding changes, referring to your ad. And you somehow need to start writing authors when you post content from other forums, mainly from forum gpspower.

modern cameras - radars
There is an article about a camera recently installed in Italy and how it collected 480,000 euros in one month - recording 8,000 speeding violations.

and this is the site where these cameras are made:

This is a very interesting story in my opinion, which indicates that in the near future drivers need to change their driving style. Modern cameras distinguish the type of vehicle and measure speed in two directions; the speed measurement distance has increased significantly.
Outdated and without a certificate, radars will be replaced with new systems, modern, cheap to manufacture and install.
In many countries, this process goes very quickly, which brings tangible profits and control.



Encoding iGO does not require any adaptation for updated cameras, as usually these are stationary cameras, sometimes they are multifunctional cameras if fines for violating traffic rules are provided for by the laws of the countries. Stick to encoding VB in the Pongo skin, all types of alerts are relevant and easily marked on the map in base OSC.

Reading various forums, incl. and Italian. It's mainly a question of installing new modern types of cameras aimed in one direction, but these cameras work to measure speed in two directions. Actually, the question has been relevant for a long time and was implemented in the pongo skin and in based with the OSC database. On the database map you can edit camera directions, as well as mark cameras aimed at the back of your car. Another thing is that many users just want to take information for their navigator without doing anything to collect data. But if there is a desire to contribute, this is a common cause and necessary for everyone.

I hope everyone understands that editing the map is easier, since this information is stored and exported. Unlike the manual method of processing text file data using third-party programs, such as spudigo. You simply physically cannot process information in the form of 7044...... coordinate points every month or twice a year.

FAQ


How to use specific encodings of countries such as Spain, France and Italy. SP BBS, EUR+ and IT. If your route runs through these countries. The easiest way, using the pongo skin as an example. We prepare three speedcam_mod Mod AF and put them in the UX folder, comment out two unnecessary zips at the moment, leaving one working zip, this file will also need to be commented out and open another file if you left the country. Next, put the required types of warnings in the content/speedcam folder speedcam.txt SP BBS, EUR+ and IT. Use Lang - Voice where all types are listed in the dictionary (Mod AF), since all types of alerts have their own unique names. Only this method is guaranteed to correctly alert radars and other types of alerts.

There are other ways to get the correct alerts from across Europe, using a radar database in one encoding. Please also take into account that Russia has its own radar databases, they are very different from the data of such databases as SCDB and POIbase, since they have not made changes for Russia for more than 5 years, of course the data in these databases is outdated.

FAQ Front camera

Some questions about the new encoding, still in the project, taken from a friendly forum:

Code:

I would like to remind you that all cameras and other types of alerts in iGO are in front of us by default, so it is impossible to create a new type Front camera. But there is a type called “In the back”, this is a separate type when you need to have an alert about approaching the radar with recording of a violation (speed) after the camera passes, since it is aimed at the rear of the car, this type has already been created in the pongo skin or any other skin called VB.

Code:

This entire warning system originates in the OSC database, how to correctly apply this type to the base map, in detail.
