Qt Map with mavlink
-
Hi everyone,
Glad to be posting on Qt forum, and i hope i will have help from the forum to help me develop my applications.
I am trying to build an application based on Qt map and then use mavlink protocol for displaying a mavlink based vehicle on the map.
But i still can't figure out how to implement that approach.
I can use the ready to use example of Qt map from Qt creator, but the problem i am having is how to implement the mavlink protocol with the map and how to get the mavlink messages sent from the vehicle to display it on Qt map.
I know that there is applications like QgroundControl available for this approach, but the code for this application is complicated and i can't figure out how they are using mavlink with the maps.
And thank you in advance for the help. -

this is a rather complicated task i'd say.

the QtLocation plugin to display the map can be found here it seems.

Thank you for your answer.And i will check out the class referred to.
But my question is, if i want to make my own applications Qtmap-mavlink, how should i implement this approach, i mean what should i consider writing in the code, and is there any tricks maybe that i should take care of, or maybe a specific logic i should make use of ?
