If there is interest could possible package up some of the other layers run on a local webserver in a similar fashion.įinally, use at your own risk, it works for us, but your mileage may vary.
Open the network link – save it to your My Places. (if it’s already running, icon in System Tray, exit it) Start up the appweb server, using Icon in Start Menu. Extract grid_mgrs.zip into directory C:\appweb\web\offline_nearby\. The pop-up window now contains the coordinates for the place. Type an address into the search field in the map. Copy php5ts.dll from C:\Program Files\Mbedthis Appweb\lib\modules\ to C:\Program Files\Mbedthis Appweb\bin\ (not sure why this step is required but Appweb seems to need it) Find Google Maps coordinates - fast and easy Use this tool to find and display the Google Maps coordinates (longitude and latitude) of any place in the world. Save nf file in C:\program files\MBedthis Appweb\, overwriting the default (this just sets up the minimum needed for PHP to run, removing some of the extra stuff). Install with the general default options.
Download Appweb web server from: (Tested with 2.2.0).
The zip file should be usable to set it up on any local server capable of running PHP, just don’t forget to edit the link in the network link to the path of your webserver. These instructions assume Windows, and that you don’t have a local webserver running. Thanks to help from Mark Ferneau, have finally the MGRS layer packaged up ready for use off-line (and GPL licenced!), an often requested feature.
