MapSAR setup problem

BartPouteau — Fri, 13 Feb 2015 05:05:00 GMT

I downloaded MapSAR a few weeks ago and am working through the documentation. When I attempt to set the coordinate system by following the instructions in the Localize MapSAR document the Set Spatial Reference tool returns a Traceback error (see attached). Anyone have any ideas?

I'm running ArcMap 10.1 SP1 on an XP machine with .NET 4 installed.

Thanks.

Bart

I'm working on updating the python code to address this issue. I'll put together a new add-in shortly and post a link for you to try.

Hi, I believe I've found the issue in the python script and have corrected it. It looks like python was treating any escape characters in the folder path as actual escape characters. So a folder named c:\new_incident has an escape character of \n within the string, which is a new line. OK enough of the geeky stuff, here's a new version for you to test, I'd appreciate your feedback as to whether this worked for you.

Download the new MapSAR toolbox here

Here's a video explaining how to install and localize MapSAR

I hope this is helpful and resolved your issue.

Hi Jon,

I've installed the new addin but I'm still receiving a traceback error, although it seem to be occurring at a different lines in the script than before. The new error message is below. Bart

I thought I had this licked but obviously not, gosh this isn't making sense! Please do me a favor and rename the "new_incident" folder to simple "incident' and your output to zone12.

Please try again with the new folder names.

If that fails I think I'll need to set a time to connect with you, so I can see your desktop and we can work this together.

Thanks for hanging in there

Jon

Hi Jon,

Using "incident" and "zone12" I get the same error as the last.

I'm available most afternoons if you want to look at what I'm doing.

Hi Alexander-

Was this issue eventually solved? Thanks!
