Tracked location workflow
Posted: Wed May 23, 2018 12:31 am
So just to make sure I'm not missing an easier way of doing this, with the idea of doing as little editing/typing on iOS as possible.
1) Start Recording location on iOS MacDive
2) Go Diving
3) Finish Diving
4) End Recording Location on iOS MacDive
5) Upload dives on OSX MacDive (i don't have the DCbuddy so can't import directly to iOS)
6) Fill out dive info on OSX MacDive minus dive site info
7) Sync to iOS
8) Go to dive profile on MacDive iOS
9) MacDive iOS automatically assigns coordinates/site
10) Then tap on the tracked location to create/assign a site information
11) Resync back to OSX MacDive
Alternatively: (i wasn't sure if you can create a site, while still recording vs. waiting for it be finished)
1) Start Recording location on iOS MacDive
2) Go Diving
3) Finish Diving
4) End Recording location on iOS MacDive
5) Click on tracked location marker on the map
6) Create site information
7) Sync to OSX MacDive
8) Import Dives to OSX MacDive
9) Assign site created in iOS MacDive to dive imported in OSX MacDive
Is that general idea? Is there a more efficient workflow? Since it appears all of the GPS trails exist solely on the iOS client and don't transfer to OSX client? I don't suppose there is a way to import a .gpx file into the desktop client and do the same dark magic that the iOS does.
As always, thanks for the excellent product and support!
