Hi,
You won't be able to directly read this file (files?) with AlpineQuest. TMS term is not a very specific term though...
AlpineQuest can read the maps listed here.
I think however that you may be able to set up MOBAC to read your TMS map and create an AQM map from it.

If you've the full version of AlpineQuest, you may also be able to export your map from GlobalMapper using the .KMZ format, which can be now read by AlpineQuest (requires AlpineQuest 2.0 and Android 3.0 or more).

Concerning your stored data, unfortunately there is still no way to export it.

1- " may be able to set up MOBAC to read your TMS map and create an AQM map from it "
- how to make this process from MOBAC ?

2- " export your map from GlobalMapper using the .KMZ format, which can be now read by AlpineQuest "
- after export my map from globalmapper to kmz
how can i read it from alpine ?

thx

For 1, just to be sure we're talking about the same thing, is that what you mean? http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Tile_Map_Ser ... cification. If so, you should be able to configure AlpineQuest to directly access your service.
Otherwise, here is what I had in mind concerning MOBAC: http://mobac.sourceforge.net/MOBAC/README.HTM#FileBased.

For 2, put your KMZ file on your device, from AlpineQuest open the "Maps explorer", list the folder where is your KMZ file and select it as explained here. Due to limited resources on mobile devices, you may not be able to import very large files.

good

now i convert it to aqm file but...

i found a problem

the aqm file over than 7 gb

can't be copying on my phone memory because u know the phone memory can not copy a file of this size on it !

how i divide the cache into multi files

ex:

each file = 2 gb

or something about this...

and thx very much

Hi again,

No you cannot split AQM files.

If you tell me the exact format of your "TMS" data, I can try to make the application directly read it.
But you didn't answer my previous question about the specification of this format.

[Ramadnio]

how to know specification of my "TMS" data ?
and i can convert it to any cache type like "OSMAND" or "RMaps" or "berkeleyDB" ... not only TMS

i have succeeded to convert caches to AQM and Alpine read it correctly

but my problem is some AQM files have a large sizes over than 50 gb can't read in alpine
sayes " out of memory " or something like that

can u help me to solve this problem ?

and sorry for delay

You'll be able to read RMaps SQLite (.sqlitedb) maps with the next update.
But 50GB files is quite large anyway for mobile devices, don't you have the ability to create multiple smaller areas to have smaller files?

Concerning your TMS format, is it a single file? A directory with sub directory and image files in it? Is there any "config" file created you could send me so I give a look?

thx i will wating... i hope to be soon..

But 50GB files is quite large anyway for mobile devices,

i have a 128 gb memory, and i would like to store large areas

don't you have the ability to create multiple smaller areas to have smaller files?

yes i can but.. it is Display only one file not all files in same time.
i don't like that

Concerning your TMS format, is it a single file? A directory with sub directory and image files in it? Is there any "config" file created you could send me so I give a look?

i exported the "TMS" by "GlobalMapper" application.

but.. actually I do not like "tiles" cache types because there are too many files are difficult to move it easily
so i prefer "DB" cache types like "BerkeleyDB", "MBTiles", "RMaps"...

that is what I hope in the next update to read this kinds of cache types
addition to accept large-sized files

thx...

The next version supporting .sqlitedb maps is already available as a beta. If you want, you can get it right now by following instructions given here: https://plus.google.com/communities/104 ... 3238?hl=en.
Note that I've only tested .sqlitedb maps up to 1GB.

If you have subscribed properly to the beta programme, then you should receive AQ v2.0.2.r3043 from PlayStore (as of 14th June).

@Ramadnio: try again now, it can take time between the time you enroll and the time you see the new version on Google Play.
Also, after joining the "beta testers community", be sure to enroll here (this is the URL for the full version, let me know if it's not the one you have), and then go on Google Play to update to the new beta version.

Sounds to me like your Google account is not set up properly. Do you get any app updates through PlayStore?, if not then you need to enable sync'ing on your Google account. AQ should have upgraded to v2 weeks ago.
