Hi Friemds,

Does anyone know a tool or procedures that allows creating microwave links drawing between sites? in Google Earth?

if anyone has it, please share.
thanks in advance,

Astro

use cre8line to create MW in tab format, then GE can open it in

Find it here brother.

But I think you can do it using PL5. There is an option there to export it in Google Earth (.kml) or in MapInfo (.mif/mid) whatever you want.

Haven't used this much so far, but the best one I've seen so far is Radio Mobile. Radio Mobile is a freeware app for planning various types of networks. As for the MW it can create kml file which you can use to display link in Google Earth. It's a complete 3D design which will show you not only link direction, but also Fresnel Zone for the defined frequency and antenna heights.

Radio Mobile is excellent freeware and it would be the easiest way to start, see here xxtp://www.cplus.org/rmw/english1.html also check out the "how to" resource page hxxp://www.cplus.org/rmw/howto.html, lots of good links. The link profiles exported to GE are only in the vertical plane, not true 3D with mutliple 360 degree axial Fresnel zones along the line of sight path.

Astro, from memory Softwright TAP does full 3D links exported to GE, see here hxxp://softwright.com/faq/support/hdp_3d.html and here on the forum http://www.finetopix.com/network-planning/3238-softwright-tap6-5-a.html

Be wary of the fact that if the digital terrain model in your link analysis SW differs a lot from the DTM's that Google Earth use, then the link in GE may not present itself correctly. If you use SRTM 3 (90m) DTM's then this should correlate well with GE.

Pathloss 5's capabilities in this regard look good, I need to get up to speed on that.

Regards, Stan.
