Hi Sherry,
Yeah, I know. I'm just trying to avoid installing Sat2Chart on my new laptop...

But thanks!

Hi All,
Anyone getting a 429 error when trying to download Navionics in SASPlanet? Seems to have just started recently.
Thanks,
Bruce

All good for me at 1045 on 31 May. Both Marine and Sonar.

Hi Terry. Thanks for that. Maybe it is because I'm in French Polynesia? If I turn on a VPN it works. Will have to experiment more.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Cheers,

it works here as of writing in FP/Huahine, using the VINI cellpone network... I am on the latest 'nightly' for SASplanet: 230424


nana!

Hi Dirk,
It seems to stop working if I use more than 2 concurrent connections. Does yours work with more than 2?
Thanks,
Bruce

It does, I am using 4 connections, currently re-doing Penrhyn :-)

Hi All,
Does anyone know if SASPlanet keeps the timestamp of the satellite imagery it downloads and is it viewable? It would be nice to know the exact date the image was taken.
Thanks,
Bruce

Bruce,

I don't think so. If you HAVEN'T converted to using SQLite (vs individual files), then maybe you could go look at the file date of the tile in Windows Explorer. It looks like you can right click on a given spot on the picture you have up, and "Open Primary Map Tile Folder" That would tell you at least when you downloaded it. (This doesn't work if you are using SQLite format to store your tiles.

I HAVE converted to using the SQLite database. So on a whim, I downloaded a tool called DB.Browser (because I was curious) and looked at one of the .sqlitedb files on my hard drive:

C:\SAS.Planet\Sqlite3_Cache\ArcGIS.Hybrid\z16\9\14 \38.56.sqlitedb

See attachment below as to what it looks like. If you have SAS code, you could go look at what the columns mean, and maybe one is a date.

The View menu under Cached Tiles Map implies that there is some date logic associated with the tiles, but I couldn't figure out how it worked just playing with it. And looking at the SAS Wiki, one of the pages says (in bold)

Attention! Mapping services periodically update maps and satellite images. SAS.Planet cannot automatically track these updates. This mission is assigned to end users. Therefore, claims like “I see a new image in the browser, but SAS.Planet downloads the old one” are not accepted.

Not sure what this means exactly.

You might ask your question on the Sas.Planet forum.

that is worthy and depend on your map sources because it is not guaranteed that pixel quality would be same on all levels. So better to look for another option.

Thanks for the info, Sherry. I actually need the date the image was taken. The reason being that I got a message from a ChartLocker user who pointed out that it would be useful to have the date for places with shifting sandbars.



I, too, saw the settings for date under view but, like you, couldn't figure it out.

By the way, I did convert the cache to SQLite -- it is so much better!

Thanks again.

Paul Higgens has optimized the settings of SASPlanet for the use of C-Map nautical charts and the use of Sat2Chart and therefore my recommendation to download it there.

However, it should be noted that he has also made a few changes to the cache storage. Therefore, the cache is not fully compatible with the original versions of SASPlanet.
