Chapter 3 — Generating Maps

3-1 Introduction
easyMap Tools is a utility to create, view, and save maps. Geo-referenced saved files are viewed with Legacy
Map Viewer .map files, or Map File Viewer .azm files.

3-2 Creating a Map

easyMap Tools uses NetToolKit and MapQuest as the map source vendors to create and save maps.
OpenStreetMap map is provided by MapQuest and NetToolKit.

Map File Viewer

Map File Viewer allows you to view individual tiles with their geo-reference information that create the .azm
file.

Figure 3-1. Map File Viewer

Before saving Open Map, use the “Settings Menu” on page 2-2 to set the color filter for the desired map
appearance.
1. Click File menu.
2. Click Open Map...
3. Select a file with the .azm extension. The map opens in the Map File Viewer.

easyMap Tools UG PN: 10580-00440 Rev. C 3-1

3-2 Creating a Map Generating Maps

Legacy Map Viewer

The Legacy Map Viewer allows you to edit or add boundaries to a saved map.

Figure 3-2. Legacy Map Viewer

Before using Open Map, use the “Settings Menu” on page 2-2 to set the color filter for the desired map
appearance.
1. Click File menu.
2. Click Open Map...
3. Select a file with the .map extension. The map opens in the Legacy Map Viewer.
4. Edit the map boundaries if desired.

Generating Maps 3-2 Creating a Map

Address Input
Enter the address of the location to be displayed in the Coverage Map and Detailed Map panels. Address
Inputs can be entered as an address or GPS coordinates. There are two types of GPS coordinate inputs:

General Format
[Latitude][Space or Comma][Longitude]
• A minus sign (-) or a compass direction (N, E, S, W), can precede a latitude or longitude value.
• North, East values are positive.
• South, West values are negative.
Examples:
• 37.4, -120.123
• N37.4, W120.123
• 37.4 -120.123

Secondary Format
[Latitude][Compass Direction][Longitude][Compass Direction]
Examples using Decimals:
• 38.959390N95.26548W
• 38S95.1E
Examples using Degree Minute Second (DMS) Notation:
• The symbols °, ’, ” are optional. If symbols are not used, Degree, Minute, and Second must be separated
by a space.
• Degrees and minutes must be integers (no decimal).
• Seconds may have decimal digits.
• A single comma separating Latitude and Longitude is mandatory. Without this comma, many street
addresses could incorrectly qualify as DMS notation.
• 38°57'33.804"N, 95°15'55.739"W
• S38°57' 33.804", E95 ° 15 ' 55 "
• 38 57 33.804 N, 95 15 55.739 W

Estimated Size
The value shown is an estimate of the file size of the map that will be saved. The larger the map sizes, the
longer the saving process. Depending on the instrument used, large maps may need to reside on memory stick
and connected to the instrument while interference mapping.

Saving Map
This button and the Save Map command in the File menu begin the process of saving a map. Press the Cancel
button to stop the saving process. The larger the map sizes, the longer the saving process. Depending on the
instrument used, large maps may need to reside on a memory stick and connected to the instrument while
interference mapping.

If a Base Station Geo Location List file was added to the map, it will be saved with the map file at this
Note
time.

3-2 Creating a Map Generating Maps

Coverage map
The Coverage Map window has multiple functions when creating maps for legacy instruments, new
instruments and image files.
• Legacy Instruments: Use this window for saving single map panels for legacy instruments. Set the
desired field of view by changing the Coverage & Detail Status/Input. Use the mouse to drag the desired
area into view.

.azm map. A rectangle in this window represents the map displayed in the Detail Map window. Use the
mouse to drag the desired area into view.

Panel Marker
The red rectangle boundary over the map that designates the single map panel displayed in Detail Map.

Detail Map
Use this window panel to set a close-up field of view for the .azm map to be saved. This view will be the most
detailed level of the azm. map. Set the desired field of view using the Pan & Zoom Tools. Pan is available for
MapQuest only.

Setting Latitude and Longitude

The Edit Latitude and Longitude editor allows you to edit the latitude and longitude coordinates of the map in
the Coverage Map window. Map boundaries in the Coverage Map window are dynamic. Dragging the map or
moving to a new location changes the boundaries to the last area viewed. The units are in degrees.

1. Click Configure Base Station Geo Location in the Settings menu to open the dialogFigure 4-2.

Figure 4-2. Configure Base Configuration Dialog

2. Click Browse button to load the desired Base Station Geo Location File into easyMap tools.
3. Check the box next to Save Base Station Data with AZM files.
• When this box is checked the Base Station Geo Location List File is loaded into the AZM map file.

Base Station Geo Location File

The purpose of a Base Station Geo Location File is to display a known base station in a geo-enabled map when
running Interference Mapping on an Anritsu Handheld Instrument.
The Base Station Geo Location File contains various information specific to a particular base station. This
information includes:
• Type
• Base station’s Latitude and Longitude
• Site Name and four additional labels that further describe the base station.
These will be displayed in the first row of the file as column headers. “Type” color codes the base station icon
and labels. Only four “Types” are supported – 0: red, 1: green, 2: blue and 3: black.
The file format is tab-delimited also known as tab-separated values (TSV). “Site Name” and the four other
column labels will be the button labels on the instrument. This TSV file can be created and edited with a
simple text editor such as Notepad. Also, files created in a spreadsheet such as Excel need to be exported to the
TSV file format. Below is an image of a sample TSV Base Station Geo Location file.

There is a limit to the number of label characters on the instrument. “Site Name” will be truncated to
Note
18 characters and the three IDx labels will be truncated to 32 characters.

easyMap Tools imports the content of the file and places it into the correct map tile of the AZM file.

Registering API Keys for MapQuest

API keys are obtained from MapQuest. To fully utilize easyMap, a Registration Key, also called an API key is
required. Without an API key, easyMap allows you to create maps up to three zoom levels. API ley registration
is required for unrestricted zoom levels. However, with an API key, easyMap allows you to create maps up to
seven zoom levels. This allows great detail at the tightest zoom levels, yet can cover a large geographic area.
