Need to Know indexing and conversion from lat lon to map tile and pixel size #310

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What new or enhanced feature are you proposing?
Hi, This is more of a request to know how the software functions rather than a 
request to enhance features:

I am using this tool to download a large area of map tiles and at varying zoom 
levels. I believe I have worked out the conversion to find the relevant image 
set for a given longitude, however, I can't use the same process to work out 
the image needed for a given latitude.

Could someone give me a breakdown of how the latitude conversion works?

Currently for Longitude I use: 
GLon = Lon+180;
Ratio = GLon/360;
Zoom = 7; %For example...
No_Tiles = 1024;
Folder_Number = No_Tiles*Ratio - 1;

Then if No_Tiles is larger than 1024 I use an index folder conversion.

If anyone could help with this it would be most appreciated.

JD

Also: If anyone has the conversion from pixel to meters for the different zoom 
levels this would be appreciated.

You do know that this an Open Source project, right?

Thank you for these links.
I'm new to programming and google code, so I really appreciate these pointers. 
I have no idea how to find this stuff (been thrown in the deep end as a Ph.D. 
student in a different field from my main discipline).

First thing you should do is get the source code, some instructions here:
http://code.google.com/p/gmapcatcher/source/checkout

You should use a good editor to read the python source code, if you are on 
Windows I will recommend you notepad++

If you need any more help shoot me an email heldersepu(at)gmail.com

I'm sorry for this inconvenience, but i don't understand why these 2 functions 
don't work with me. My values for lat, long, zoom parameters are 21.0688888889, 
105.8125, -2. So the coordinates after being processed by coord_to_tile 
function are 416413, 230744 and the path should be "sat_tiles\-2\406\399\344", 
but i don't find any folder named 399. is the formular should be added +100 or 
something like that. I hope you will reply soon. Thank you so much.

@Lethailinh9999
That is not the values I get if run those coords through the functions:

coord =
[21.0688888889, 105.8125, -2]

map_coord =
((208122, 115372), (79, 46))

tile_coord =
[208122, 115372, -2]

path =
-2\203\250\112\684.png

See sample code here:

Thank you so much for your reply. But there is no folder named "203" in the 
folder named "-2". There is only one folder named "406" and the function in the 
link above get the MAP_MAX_ZOOM_LEVEL is 17. (  
http://code.google.com/p/gmapcatcher/source/browse/trunk/gmapcatcher/mapUtils.py
def coord_to_tile(coord))
Using this  constant i get the folder named "406" but the folder named "399".

You are correct the max zoom is 17, I made the correction to the script:
https://code.google.com/p/hs-scripts/source/browse/trunk/Python/coord.py

Here are the results I get now:

coord =
[21.0688888889, 105.8125, -2]

map_coord =
((416244, 230744), (159, 93))

tile_coord =
[416244, 230744, -2]

path =
-2\406\500\225\344.png

Hi. I want to convert lat, lng, zoom to pixel coordinate in the tile i 
downloaded from gmapcatcher. As I have the image path-2\406\500\225\344.png, if 
i have a mark point, i want to know where it is in that image tile. I hope you 
will reply soon. Thank you so much!

In the previous example
map_coord =
((416244, 230744), (159, 93))

that is (tile, offset)
the offset is the pixel coords withing that tile
