At my PM janszoon is asking me for some detailed instructions. I understand quite a number of people still do not use Linux these days

but there is a way of doing the thing on Windows.

A guy at a Russian forum asked me for giving him instruction in Russian, so I've posted them here http://n8xx.com/post54305.html#p54305. Unfortunately I'm quite busy at the moment to prepare an English version of these. As soon as I have a bit more time I'll come back to this.

Meanwhile, perhaps Google Translate might help (although the translation is pretty much terrible):

Thanks mate. I may have to wait for you to get round to the English version as my russian is very bad, and my linux is even worse, my python is literally non exisitant.

I may be biting off more than I can chew trying to get NZ Nautical maps into Mappero, but I will try to follow the steps. Perhaps even write a noobs guide to doing. And by Noob, I mean.... What do i even do with the script, how do I access it, how do I tell it where to look and what to do etc...

Soo...Please excuse my ignorance

I'm at step one:
I have installed/extracted the programs/7zips as suggested. I have a folder full of my .kap files ready to be processed. Can I point the script to a folder, or do I need to convert each chart individually?

At the CMD I access the script with the following:

Code:

cd C:\<location>\bsb2tiles
C:\<location>\bsb2tiles>python bsb2gdal.py c:\<source directory> -c -t C:\<destination directory>

Can you please help me with the correct syntax? I would like to remove the border as suggested too.

Cheers.
(please tell me I'm not the only one who finds this daunting

)

Did you edit bsb2tiles.bat, so the lines there look like this?
set PYTHON=<python location>
set GDAL=<gdal location>

If so, you can check if it works

Code:

cd /d <drive>:\<source directory>
bsb2gdal.py

The script will start, but then complain of the lack of parameters. This is fine.

Then you just type (do not hit Enter):

Code:

bsb2gdal.py --cut

Then drag a .KAP file here from the Explorer's file list window, then hit Enter. You should get .vrt file.
Then (you can drag as well):

Code:

gdal2tiles.py <vrt file>

You'll get a folder with tile pyramid (so-called TMS-format). Watch for googlemaps.html there, you can fire it with a Firefox or IE.
Then:

Code:

tiles-merge.py --gtiles <pyramid folder>

You'll get gtiles subfolder inside the pyramid. That's what you need for the mappero (as people say

How do I get from your bsb2tiles.tar.gz file (attached to original thread) to .bat ?

bsb2tiles.bat file attached to the Russian instructions referenced above. You would also need gdal2tiles.py from there

Hi Vadp.

Some progress, I got the batch file running etc and get to the step below:

I run the batch file and get a CMD window with:

Setting environment for using the GDAL and MapServer tools.
Hiding the OCI plugin library.
C:\Maps\bsb2tiles>

If so, you can check if it works
Code:
cd /d <drive>:\<source directory>
bsb2gdal.py

cd /d c:\Maps\NewZealand

C:\Maps\NewZealand>bsb2gdal.py
Usage: bsb2gdal.py [--cut] [--dest-dir=DEST_DIR] KAP_file...

bsb2gdal.py: error: No input file(s) specified

C:\Maps\NewZealand>

Yes this works

Then you just type (do not hit Enter):
Code:
bsb2gdal.py --cut
Then drag a .KAP file here from the Explorer's file list window, then hit Enter. You should get .vrt file.

Yes I type the above then I drag the file in (add debug) and hit enter as stated but I get the following error:

Code:

I have also tried a newer version of Gdal form the russian thread. (1.7) and now I get the attached pop up error, at the same place in the process.

It seem the environment wasn't set properly.

Can you call 'proj' from a command prompt?

Also check the location of proj.dll. Then check the PATH environment variable( 'echo %PATH%' or even just 'set'). The location of proj and proj.dll must be among the folders listed at PATH.
