Navitel directional alert for Russia
Source: Navitel May 2015
Converted to .gpi with EN, RU, BE, KK, UK languages. Using bearing list, built-in tones and Navitel icons. Proximity/Range=400m.
Exclusively for gpspower, so password=gpspower.net
Do not post on other sites or I will not release any future updates!
Spoiler: .
Post screenshots and accuracy of alerts and on what GPS unit it's running on. Also proximity=400m is fixed for all alerts. I can make it different for each types (even taken account of speed: faster speed means longer distant) Post any recommendations if you have them.Last edited by osiris4isis; 23rd June 2015 at 12:45 PM.

Since all those .gpi's have duplicate EN voice, I would think it's would be smaller when rar'ed all together. I originally posted 3 separate because of political* boundary instead of space saving.
* back in the 80's I would of posted one rar with name USSR.rar

osiris4isis, did you prepare the bearing list by yourself or you got it ready from Navitel's original files?

They are from Navitel dataset (per first post "Source: Navitel May 2015") The bitmaps and voices are also from Navitel, converted (tweak) to work. Disclaimer: So any incorrect/inaccuracy, blame Navitel

Hey, no blame at all! Originally Posted by osiris4isis

Congrats for the good work!
Just curious, because for directional alerts I'm using the bearing angle and distance. IMO both ways ("circle list" and "bearing angle-distance") required a tedious work to prepare the data.
If the result is one and the same (I suppose so), is there any "pros and cons" using circles or angle-distance method?Last edited by the_bookworm; 3rd June 2015 at 08:11 AM.

I think I discussed this in one of my other threads. Basically, I would use bearing list if road is not curvy and distant it not long (ie: tunnel, average cam, or far mobile alerts) Bearing list works great for redlight and fixed cam. Circle list takes more work because the more circles you use the more accurate and multiple notification works. Trying to automate the creation of them is more an art than science (lots of tweaking) Navitel is one of few vendor providing alerts with bearing angles so it's just parsing the alert file and creating the .xml to be created by Garmin Creator Toolkit. I wish Navitel release maps and alerts for U.S. Originally Posted by the_bookworm

I would hope so, my rar version is 3.93 and the next answer is "no, I will not* upgrade." Originally Posted by sbog
