Trail calculation
The trail calculator calculates the crossing time, GOT points, distances and altitudes of a trip along the marked trails of the Carpathians and Sudetes. It allows you to divide the trip into daily stages, plan breaks, and set the starting times of the stages.
The map shows places from which you can choose the beginning of the trail.
The individual symbols mean:
- city,
- peak,
- pass,
- a different type of facility.
- mountain hut.
Object symbols are usually on a colored background. A colorful background will allow you to distinguish individual mountain groups. A red halo was used to distinguish objects that mark points for multi-day trips to large GOT degrees. There are also objects for which no background has been applied. These are facilities that are not included in the GOT regulations, and they were additionally introduced for greater flexibility in route planning.
After selecting the beginning of the trail, the character «Calculator» appears.
The next parts of the trail can be selected in several ways:
- - by selecting an adjacent trail marker from the map
- - selecting an adjacent or more distant object from the map
- - selecting from the list in the menu, where the names of adjacent objects appear.
After selecting a distant object, the program looks for the fastest route. When it finds multiple variants, it will display a variant selection form. If unsuccessful, it will stay in the previous location, but will not display the character «Calculator».
The map presents the entire course of the hike on an ongoing basis. The route is marked with a bold line.
At the individual points through which the hike leads, there are stage stamps:

.
The number 0 indicates the beginning of the trail. The number 99 is not a limit to the number of trail sections,
because for the persistent the numbering starts from zero again
By clicking on the stage icon you can:
- - divide the trip into days,
- - define the start time of the hike on individual days,
- - set a rest time.
In the left part of the menu, basic information about the course of the trail is displayed: distance, time, start and end time of the trip. When the trip is divided into several days, the information will be on the last day, and information about previous days can be read by expanding the list.
Detailed information on the performed calculation is available after pressing Results . The program then leaves the map page and goes to the page where it displays a number of tables, descriptions of trips, photos, links to other websites describing selected routes, and even weather forecasts and webcam views.
The map calculation is enhanced by buttons in the menu above the map.
Zoom in Zoom out - Using these buttons you can freely change the size of the map.
Delete the last one - The button is used to delete the last fragment of the trip.
Turn over - By using this button, you can reverse the entire trip with one click, that is, the start and end places can be changed.
From the begining - This button deletes the entire tour, but remains on the map.
Background map - The background of the calculation can be a classic map. The SYGNATURA publishing house has provided us with its maps and we can use them in the calculator.
Labels - This button allows you to bring up the 'tablets' on the map with basic data on all routes in the Carpathian or Sudetes ranges. It can be useful when we are before deciding where to go.
Save - A logged in user can remember his trip in the resources of our portal. He can remember it only for himself or make it available to all users.
Address - This button will open a window with the address of the page with the performed calculation, which can be copied and placed on any website by any user.
Help - If you want to read this text again.
Fun to use and fun to conquer mountain trails!
