INDOOR MEASUREMENTS
Note that this functionality is available only if your Nemo Handy product option supports it. For product options, see page 11. Note that this functionality is not available for playback.

You can view indoor maps in Nemo Handy and plot the measurement route on the map with markers.

Importing Maps and Defining Map Settings


If this is the first time you are performing indoor measurements with Nemo Handy, you will need to import an indoor map (i.e. a floor plan) to Nemo Handy as an image file. The following image formats are supported: .png, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .mbm, .tiff, .tif, and .bmp. Transfer the image file (e.g. Floorplan.jpg) to the memory card of your Nemo Handy terminal by using e.g. a Bluetooth connection, a cable connection, or a memory card reader. You can also take a photo, for example, of an emergency exit plan with the Handy mobile phone camera and use that as an indoor map.In Nemo Handy, select Options | Settings | Indoor Map.

Select Map File | Import Image and browse to the folder where you have the map image. Select the imported image file.
If this is the first time you are performing indoor measurements, Nemo Handy will generate a MapInfo file (.tab) based on the image file. Next time you make measurements and use the same map, Nemo Handy will use the .tab file automatically. A MapInfo map always consists of two files: a MapInfo .tab file and an image file.

Next, define indoor map settings.

Map file allows you to load new indoor maps, as discussed above. Display indoor map setting defines whether the map is displayed (On) or not (Off). Draw route setting defines whether the markers placed on the map are connected to draw the measurement route (On) or not (Off). Route Parameter defines which parameter is used in coloring the indoor route. Indoor route coloring is based on the selected parameter's values, and user defined or pre defined limits and color sets. Pre defined limits (On/Off) defines whether default limits and colors are used for route parameter, or whether the user would like to define the limits. Select Off to enter user defined limits for parameter values, parameter color bad and good.

Use geodetic coordinates (On/Off). To define map size based on geodetic coordinates, set Use geodetic coordinates to On. If Geodetic coordinates is set to On, you can set map scale based on two known coordinate positions. To do this, go to the Indoor Map view. Select Map Tools | Set Scale. Select the first coordinate position on the map with number keys (see table below), press Ok, and enter Latitude and Longitude for the position in decimal degrees (e.g. Latitude 65.0127, Longitude 25.4714). Select the second coordinate position on the map with number keys (see table below), press Ok, and enter Latitude and Longitude for the position. Note: When entering negative coordinates with Nokia 6720/6720US terminals, read the following. If the existing coordinate value is positive, delete the figure and go one step down with the arrow button. The default value appears with a minus value. Go back, and delete all other digits except the minus character, and enter the negative coordinate.

Geodetic coordinates defines coordinates for the top left and bottom right corners of the map. Enter coordinates in decimal degrees (e.g. Latitude 65.0127, Longitude 25.4714). Map width in meters displays the default value for the map width in meters. Map height in meters displays the default value for the map height in meters. Alternatively, you can also set map scale by selecting a distance from the map and defining the corresponding distance in meters. To do this, go to the Indoor Map view. Select Map Tools | Set Scale. Set start point on the map with number keys (see table below) and press Ok. Set end point and press Ok. Enter the actual distance between the start and end points in meters to the Set distance in meters field and press Ok. Embed files to log allows you to define whether indoor map and marker files are embedded to the .nbl log file upon export. File manager will separate the map file from the measurement file upon post processing. You can select among Never, Always, and Ask. After defining indoor map settings, you are ready to begin measurements.
