Is Explorer possible to record a track(gpx).

Question

Hi~~

The mmpk(map) is good.

Is Explorer possible to follow a track(gpx).

Is Explorer possible to alarm for stray from track.

It would be great if Esri added the above function. There are only a few people who make maps(mmpk).There are many people who use maps.

High-priced programs such as navigation are too much for many to use.

I hope many peoples can use a good map(mmpk).

Hi    Brent pierce~~~

Thank you for your reply.

I want to use offline map for traveling or hiking.

There are a lot of kinds of applications.

Oruxmaps, locus pro, alpinequest etc.

They have a lot of users.

https://www.oruxmaps.com/cs/en/

https://www.locusmap.eu/

https://www.alpinequest.net/

The problem is that applications cannot use mmpk.

Those applications use mbtilemap or mapsforge map.

Instead of making a lot of apps, I want a good one.

Explorer the most suitable application.

(navigator and tracker aren’t suitable)

We recommend you try oruxmap yourself.

Kal,

Have you tried the tracker solution?

https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/tracker/announcements/tracker-for-arcgis-v19-1-0-released/

We explicitly built this app to track your location efficiently.

With respect to following a GPX track I would be very interested in the underlying problem your are trying to solve here. Seems like a really interesting use case can you provide more information.

The next release of Explorer will provide what we call Compass Mode which is a way to use your device to find a specific feature when you are in the field. This is often used to get "as the crow flies" type directions to a feature in your GIS when you are near it in the field.

Hope this helps,

-Brent
