This is a tool to generate a printable topographic map by using screenshots from OsmAnd (https://osmand.net). The map uses the UTM grid and has declination information. It's to be used with a compass or a GPS device with UTM coordinates.
Tested on Python 3.11
- Put the WMM/WMMHR Coefficient file download from https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/world-magnetic-model-high-resolution to the
wmmdirectory. - Install the requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
- Install Bluestacks5(https://www.bluestacks.com/bluestacks-5.html) and have OsmAnd+ installed
- The Bluestacks VM should have a resolution of 3840x2160 and DPI of 320
- Optional: Import the
profiles/Hiking Map.osfto OsmAnd
First, run:
python topo_map_generator.py --paper_size A4 --orientation portrait 富士山 54S 295102 3917080 1:25000 topomaps/富士山It will generate a GPX file to the topomaps/富士山.
Then import the 富士山.gpx file into OsmAnd and take screenshots that overlapping and cover the whole region. The screenshots should be taken by using the arrow keys to follow a zigzag pattern.
Copy the screenshots to the topomaps/富士山. The program will merge all the screenshots and find 4 corners of the region. You could correct it and let the program generate the final map for you.
Example result:
- Can not generate a map when the equator is in the region.
- Metric units only.
