Import KML file

Post by dwilasnd »

Is there a way to import a KML file to have a large list of sites already in the app?

Maybe have users share their dive sites? Take dive sites out of another website for a region you would be diving, and drop them in?

Not currently. You can export KML, but not import it.

I can add a note to look in to this when I get a chance. Email me with a sample file - I can use an exported file, but it would be nice to have some extra testing data.

I have sent over the file types from www.wannadive.net that are available.

Thank you.

For the forum, this feature is implemented and will be in the next update.

And for the record, this is the fastest I have ever had a request, acknowledged, added, and a beta sent to me to test! Whoa...

I saw this feature in the change log, but I can't seem to find it anywhere in the desktop app, can someone point me in the right direction?

On to a dive, or just into the Site screen?

Hi I cannot import KML files even with drag and drop method; could somebody send me a file that works with MacDive so that I can test it ? Best regards Alain
