You are able to export various maps from [QVC] to QVM, which can be used by your phone offline without an active internet connection. The export requires the installation of the actual version of [QVC], which is now QV-Version 7.0.1.29.
The map engine in QVM is based on the so-called Mercator projection which is also used by e.g. Google, OSM. Therefore the raster map is divided into grid-formed tiles of 256×256 pixels.
For the export of a map [QVC] is forming the selected parts of the map as tiles and saving them as a zip file with the ending *.qmz. Additionally you will find an automatically generated small xml-file in the zip file which contains information about zoom level or expansion.
If you select an existing QMZ-file for the export new tiles will be added easily and tiles which are already exist will be replaced. Please notice that the existing file will not be overwritten.
Attention:
The maximum size of the exportable region is also for QVM depending on the licensor of the map and will be shown to you on the status bar of the export dialogue.
The export of maps in Mercator projection from [QVC] directly to QVM is only possible for online maps. The maximum size of the map section is limited for licensed maps. If you like to export another type of map e.g. a topo map, you need to upload it at first as an overlay to another online map. So the map can be re-projected on Mercator. We recommend to hide the online-map by the project manager to avoid that it will be exported, too.
In the map export assistant on the start screen select QVM as the destination.
On the second screen you need to enter the desired zoom factor, as with any other exports. Hier ist ein wenig “ausprobieren” nötig, um einen Zoom-Faktor zu finden, damit die Karte im höchsten Zoomlevel auf dem Phone auch gut zu erkennen ist. Bei einer Karte im Maßstab 1:25.000 kann dies bis auf 13% funktionieren.
Example for the export of a map section Ausschnittes from Top25-D:
Die erzeugte QMZ-Datei können Sie auf verschiedene Weisen ins Phone übertragen.
SD-Karte:
SkyDrive:
Selektieren Sie die QMZ in der Liste und wählen Sie Import aus der Menübar. Die QMZ-Karte wird jetzt in den internen Speicher kopiert und in die Kartentabelle eingetragen. Die QMZ wird danach nicht mehr benötigt.

Hinweis: auf die gleiche Art und Weise können Sie auch Datenbanken (*.SDF) und GPX-Dateien an QVM senden.
