you do know the elevation graph does this?
The red line shows my flight planned altitude relative to Home Altitude. I am asking for an option to show the red line relative to the terrain data. If the green GE line were to become the x axis, then the y axis would read the actual AGL above the terrain. I could simply read off the lowest altitude from the y axis, rather than having to subtract the data line from each other.
Michael, Is my request not clear?
Is this enhancement being considered? It would be a very valuable improvement for those of us who flight plan in steep terrain.
Is there any hope for this? I just want to see a graph that shows how close I get to the terrain without having to subtract out the difference.
Since Mission Planner only displays in 2D, I find the Elevation Profile essential in the steep terrain that I survey. I would like an option to display the flight profile with reference to AGL. As it is, I need to try to visually subtract the terrain line from the flight planned line and I have a difficult time determining the nearest I will be to the terrain. I imagine 2 checkboxes that turn either the GE or SRTM data into the X axis.
Another nice touch would be a report of the lowest and highest AGL altitude in the current flight plan.
Thank you for your consideration
