== Interface Overview == === What you see (Screen Layout) === [[Image:mainscreen.png | The main Fanomos GUI]] == Application and Login info == The window title holds the application and login information. [[Image:applogininfo.png]] == Basic Operations == === Viewer Toolbar === [[Image:viewertoolbar.png|500px|frame|right|The viewer toolbar]] The viewer toolbar contains the controls for the main viewer panel. The controls are distributed in four parts. ==== Map Windows ==== [[Image:mapwindows.png|frame|left]] The main viewer panel as the possibility to show small inset windows. With the toggle buttons in the Map Windows part these windows can be controlled. The ''Default'' button reloads settings of last save preferences. ==== Printing ==== [[Image:printingwindow.png|frame|left]] [[Image:printingwindow2.png|frame|right|Printing is in progress]] The print button will start the printing process, the process creates a PDF document and automatically a PDF viewer will be started, the printing itself should be done using the PDF viewer. ==== QuickInfo ==== [[Image:quickinfo.png|frame|left]] [[Image:quickinfo2.png|frame|right|Quick info point in the map]] The quickinfo part shows ''hovering'' information. When the user moves the mouse pointer over a track and keep it in the same position for some time the inforation will appear. ==== Zoom ==== ---- === Map Panel === In this panel (Drawing area) the map and [[User_Guide#Map_Windows|map windows]] are shown. [[Image:mappanel.png|thumb|frame|right]] The position of the map is stored in the user preferences on the server. To navigate in the mappanel use the left mouse to pan the map. To zoom in and out the mouse scrollwheel is used. Zooming in or out on the area can be accomplished using options of the [[User_Guide#Viewer_Toolbar|viewer toolbar]] However, dragging the left mouse button while holding down the ''shift'' key can also perform zoom in. The selected area is shown with a rubber band rectangle while moving the mouse. The moment the user releases the button, the picture is re-drawn (refreshed) applying the current co-ordinates. It must be noted that whatever rectangle is selected, the longest side of the resulting area is matching the longest side of the selected rectangle. ==== Control Area ==== [[Image:controlarea.png|frame|right]] So-called layers represent the actual presentation. The various layers are related to a certain type of information that can be selected from the database or has been calculated. The user is able to control which data layer is to be presented, using the toggle buttons in the control area. A red dot means that the layer is disabled while a green checkmark indicates an active layer. # ''Map Information'' #* The geographical information of the selected area. # ''Grid'' #* The grid of the map # ''Flights'' #* The selected flight(s) for the query. # ''Track Density'' #* To calculate density plots of tracks in the current flight selection. # ''Runways'' #* The runways. [[Image:controlarea_off.png|frame|thumb|Offender box]] #*# OffenderBox #*# Draw the offender box around the airfields # ''Route info'' #* Route information #*# ''Nominal'' #*#: The nominal route of the selected flight(s). #*# ''Tolerance'' #*#: The tolerance routes of the selected flight(s). #*# ''Borders'' #*#: The border (warning) routes of the selected flight(s). # ''Builtup Info'' #* The built-up areas with the co-ordinates as used in the calculations. # ''Track statistics'' #* Average #*: The statistic average flight of the selected flight-set. #* Middle #*: The statistic middle of the selected flight-set. #* % Conf. limits #*: The area in which (with P % certainty) the average flight track (of a similar flight-set) #* % boundaries #*: The area within which P % of the flights in the selected flight-set can be found. ==== Altitude Bands ==== [[Image:altbands.png|150px|frame|right]] Altitude bands colouring enables the user to visualise, via colour coding, height bands in the map panel. [[Image:altbandsflight.png|frame|left|thumb|Effects of altitude band coloring]] The first band color will be used for '''all''' altitudes below the given level. The last band color will be used for '''all''' altitudes above the given level. In order to refrain certain altitudes from rendering a transparant color can be used. ===== Altitude band edit ===== [[Image:altbandsedit.png|thumb|frame|Editing of latitude bands]] In order to edit the altitude bands, click with the left mouse button in the Altitude bands window on a altitude color band. ==== Compass ==== ==== Map Layer Control ==== ==== Profile Window ==== ---- === Query Flight Panel === ---- === Flight Selection Panel === [[Image:flightselectlist.png|500px|frame|right|The resulting flights of a query]] This window contains a scrollable list of flights of the current flight set. === Property Panels === ==== Aircraft Property Panel ==== ==== Airport Property Panel ==== ==== Builtup Area Property Panel ==== Part of the flight track offender check procedure is the check whether the flight track flies over a (at least one) built-up area, below a prescribed height limit. To enable this, for each dataset, identified by a name, height limits (for day and night period) must be specified. Built-up area selection also is part of the flight selection process. ===== Edit Builtup Area Points ===== ==== Flight Property Panel ==== ==== Radar Property Panel ==== ==== Route Property Panel ==== ==== Route Base Property Panel ==== ==== Route Segment Property Panel ==== ==== Runway Property Panel ==== == Calculations == === Track Statistics === === Track Density === [[Image:trackdensity1.png|left|frame]] The Track Density button is used to open the Track Density calculation dialog. The calculation is done using the current set of flights. The track density results represent the number of flights passing through a grid-cel; the results are expressed as percentages of the current set of flights. [[Image:trackdensity2.png|thumb|right|frame]] The Track density control part defines the grid area. The initial values represent the current visible part of the map at the time when the dailog was opened. These values can edited. The Z value filters in which height interval the density values are calculated. The X- and Y-values define the dimensions of the grid. Step X and Y defines the gridcell size in meters. To start the calculate press the “Run” button ==== Viewing the Track Density results ==== [[Image:trackdensity3.png|frame|left]] In order to view the track density result the “Track Density” layer must be enabled in the “Control Area”. [[Image:trackdensity4.png|frame|right|thumb]] The grid area is marked with a black rectangle, and there is an extra Track Density Colors window added. Using the controls in the “Track density data range” in the dailog the on screen picture can manipulated. The LOWER, HIGHER range value (in percent) defines the visible interval range. The STEP range value defines the percentage step before change the color. The number of color intervals as calculate as follows; (HIGHER-LOWER)/STEP rounded up. [[Image:trackdensity5.png|thumb|frame|left]] For example the shown color legend is the result of LOWER value 5, HIGHER value 90 and STEP value is 10. The first “purple” band show the density 5%-15%. Only the last color can have a smaller range due to rounding issues. To clear the current density the “Clear Current Map” button can be pressed.
