3DSurvey Pilot - Doesn't import KML
« on: August 10, 2021, 05:16:29 PM »
Hello Guys;

I've been using 3dSurvey Pilot for a while doing some analysis using the grid and polygon feature in the app and so far, most of the time all has gone well. Some minor issues that are solved by restarting the mobile phone or just simply trying again until it works.

I am trying now to run some analysis using the Import KML feature in the app but sadly every time I try to import a KML the app crashes or hangs being impossible to import any kml polygon to the app.

My mobile is a Moto G8 Power with Android version 11.
The kml files I've tried so far range from 733 to 760 bytes.

Any idea of what is wrong with the app or how to solve this?

Hey Oscar,

Try this, Open the kml in Google Earth, then use Save place as, and save into a new kml file. Try loading this one in 3Dsurvey Pilot and it should work.

If this doesn't help, send me the kml to support@3dsurvey.si check it out.

Hello Vid.

Thanks for your suggestion, it actually did the trick and now it works.

So I add this part of information that was missing from my original post;

I generated the KMLs in QGIS and I tried to upload them to the 3DSurvey Pilot app. This probably made the app crash (?). I did as you mentioned, opened the KMLs in GEarth and exported them again as KML and imported them to the APP and worked with no issues at all.

Thanks for your suggestion!!
