## GDAL to CustomMap Tools | ||
Some python scripts to generate Garmin CustomMap compatible KMZ from | ||
geo-referenced images. | ||
|
||
Garmin CustomMap has some restrictions on the KMZ it can display | ||
|
||
1. No tile larger than 1024x1024 (or equivalent total pixels) | ||
2. No more than 100 tiles on the device (e.g. 4 KMZ files with 25 tiles each) | ||
|
||
`gdal2tiles` (the GDAL default tiler) uses 256x256 tiles so requires 4 times | ||
as many tiles as necessary. `gdal2kml` tries to tile the map as efficiently | ||
as possible so you dont end up with thin tiles at the right or bottom. | ||
|
||
`gdal2kml` **DOES NOT** do any warping so the source image must be correctly georeferenced and in `EPSG:4326` | ||
projection or the conversion will fail. | ||
For other projections you need to get the GDAL utility programs and run it through `gdal_warp` first. If you are not sure about the projection run it through anyway as it will not adversly affect the output. | ||
This may introduce a black border which you can then cut out using the --crop option to gdal2kml. | ||
``` | ||
gdalwarp -t_srs EPSG:4326 -r cubic <input.tif> <corrected.tif> | ||
gdal2kml.py corrected.tif output.kml --crop 20 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Requirements | ||
You need the GDAL library and Python bindings installed. On Ubuntu | ||
its as simple as | ||
``` | ||
sudo apt-get install python-gdal | ||
``` | ||
|
||
For windows there are prebuilt binaries at http://www.gisinternals.com | ||
The current stable is 1.9.0 and I have tested with the MSVC2008 version and the | ||
following packages but it can be a bit tricky to get all the paths right | ||
``` | ||
(http://python.org/download) | ||
python-2.7.2.msi | ||
(http://www.gisinternals.com/sdk/PackageList.aspx?file=release-1500-gdal-1-9-mapserver-6-0.zip) | ||
gdal-19-1500-core.msi | ||
gdal-19-1500-ecw.msi | ||
GDAL-1.9.0.win32-py2.7.msi | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Basic Usage | ||
``` | ||
python gdal2kml.py input.tif my_map.kml | ||
python kml2kmz.py my_map.kml | ||
``` | ||
