OpenLayers web UI implementation of the albar965/littlenavmap local web service.
This implementation provides:
- A browser-based pan/zoomable littlenavmap-generated tile map
- Toggleable user aircraft follow logic if available
- Fixes and workarounds to work inside limited iframe environments (e.g. MSFS2020 VR)
State: Prototype
Follow discussion at: LNM - OpenLayers Integration Roadmap
This JS application is built using node.js/webpack into a static HTML/JS package located at:
It is intended to be served via the LNM built-in web server.
Little Navmap Version 2.6.10 (Revision 9e09a8a9)
Build your own bundle or copy the above mentioned ol folder into your LNM installations web directory
`Path/to/your/Little Navmap/web`
The application should become accessible as soon as the LNM server has started via the default LNM URL:
e.g. http://localhost:8965/ol/index.html
To allow aircraft progress tracking LNM position format must be set to GPS (deg,mins,secs,direction) in its settings and Position display must be turned on
This application can be embedded as an MSFS2020 in-game panel via msfs2020-littlenavmap-openlayers
- Dirty/Incomplete renderings
- Redundant display of map data
- Higher load on LNM server
- Hacky data retrieval from LNM
- Missing close zoom levels
- No clickable features
- Displayed LNM position data must be GPS (deg,mins,secs,direction)
- Mercator projection only
A huge, fat, THANK YOU, @albar965 for providing this awesome, not so "little" software! :)
Thanks also to @bymaximus for sharing the MSFS2020 in-game panel projects which have inspired me to write this.
