A paraglidingspot placemark name is composed of the takeoff type, the takeoff orientation and the placemark name.
Example: TOC (WNW) Dune du Pila
The following takeoff types are possible
-
TO (Takeoff Hill/Mountain)
-
TOC (Takeoff Coast)
-
TOW (Takeoff Winch)
-
LZ (Landing Zone)

Annex -HG (Hang Glider)
The takeoff orientation is taken from the compass rose and is placed in brackets. Note:
- e.g. (N-W) means north to west
- e.g. (N,SW) indicates north or southwest.
Different takeoff names are possible. The names must be seperated by an underscore or alternative names are placed in brackets.
A paraglidingspot placemark location is defined by coordinates in the WGS84 format (see Wikipedia).
You can specify the latitude and longitude in three different formats. Please use the appropriate fields for this.
