Custom map

You k 3 years ago

Hello,

I'm using the newest version 5.3 and custom map still not showing even after disabling web.sanitize.

<entry key='web.sanitize'>false</entry>

Please what could be the reason ?

Hi Anton,

I'm in the same situation. 5.4 version installed but quite difficult to understand the way of adding the Google Map Layer.
Understood from now:

  • URL should be like this: http://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=y,traffic&hl=es&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}&s=Ga
  • Sanitize attribute is in traccar.xml config file.
  • (Stuck) Server Preferences > Map > Custom (XYZ) (not selectable, looks red).
  • (Stuck) Going to User Account > Attribute, there is only selectable attributes, tried also typing "Custom (XYZ)" but still not working.

Can you describe a little bit in deep the full steps? As the documentation I think is for older versions, or I am not finding the correct doc link.

Thank you once!

Well... I just found another entry in the forum right now. I you allow me, I will type here the steps:

  1. Edit Config file "traccar.xml", and add the next line:
   <entry key='web.sanitize'>false</entry>
  1. Save and reboot the Traccar service.
  2. Do login in Traccar.
  3. Go to Settings > Server and in the first text-box, type the Google URL you preffer (like this one http://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=y,traffic&hl=es&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}&s=Ga) (more info in this link to doc https://www.traccar.org/map-layers/)
  4. Go to Settings > Preferences > Map Section, and now should be available the "Custom (XYZ)" map.

Remember to enable it at user level.
Hope this helps another users.
Thanks and sorry!

Please provide screenshots. By the way, in version 5.4 the sanitize flag is disabled by default, so you don't need to change/add it.

So "sanitize" line is not needed anymore? Can I supress the step number 1?

Anton Tananaev 3 years ago

Yes, not needed if you're using the default 5.4 config.
