| 00:29 | To record this tutorial, I am using,
Ubuntu Linux OS, version 16.04 |
| 00:38 | Marble version 1.12.20 and |
| 00:44 | A working Internet connection. |
| 00:47 | The process demonstrated in this tutorial is identical in,

| 01:22 | Go to the Mapview and select OpenStreetMap. |
| 01:27 | OpenStreetMap opens on the interface. |
| 01:31 | Let us first learn about OpenStreetMap. |
| 01:35 | OpenStreetMap is an editable navigational map. |
| 01:40 | It gives information about roads, boundaries and transport links. |
| 01:48 | OpenStreetMap shows prominent buildings, airports and train tracks. |
| 01:56 | For better visibility, I will select Flat View option from the drop-down. |
| 02:02 | Let us go to our home location Mumbai. |
| 02:07 | I will hide Overviewmap, Compass and Windrose for better view of the map. |
| 02:17 | I will zoom in to show some places in Mumbai on the map. |
| 02:24 | They are,
Sanjay Gandhi National park |
| 02:28 | Chhatrapati Shivaji international airport |
| 02:34 | Western and central railway lines |
| 02:41 | Godrej Memorial hospital and IIT Bombay. |
| 02:58 | Go to the Legend panel and click on it. |
| 02:52 | Let us scroll down to show different symbols that represent different attributes. |
| 02:58 | They are,
Transportation |
| 03:02 | Areas |
| 03:06 | Places of Interest |
| 03:09 | Education and others. |
| 03:17 | Let us zoom out to go back to the default location. |
| 03:22 | Now we will learn how to create route maps. |
| 03:27 | I will drag the boundary to see the map clearly. |
| 03:32 | To find a route map between two places, click on the Routing panel. |
| 03:37 | In the Routing panel, we see two input bars with green coloured A and B icons. |
| 03:45 | Click on the down arrow button next to A. |
| 03:49 | A drop-down menu opens with different options.
Select From Map option. |
| 03:57 | In the input bars, we will enter the source and destination of the route. |
| 04:03 | I will demonstrate how to find a route map from Mumbai to Pune. |
| 04:09 | As Mumbai is our starting point, let us type Mumbai in the first input bar. |
| 04:16 | Click on the Search button or press Enter key on the keyboard. |
| 04:21 | Let us wait till Mumbai is located on the map. |
| 04:26 | A message, placemarks found: 1 appears next to the Search button. |
| 04:33 | On the map, location of Mumbai is marked as A. |
| 04:38 | This A icon is the same as the one shown in the input bar. |
| 04:43 | Go to the second input bar and click on the down arrow button next to B. |
| 04:50 | From the drop-down select From Map option. |
| 04:54 | I will type Pune in the second input bar. |
| 04:59 | Click on the Search button or press Enter key on the keyboard. |
| 05:04 | Again we will wait till Pune is located on the map. |
| 05:10 | This location is shown using B icon on the map. |
| 05:15 | Notice that Search button is now replaced by a Get Directions button. |
| 05:22 | Click on the Get Directions button. |
| 05:25 | Route map from Mumbai to Pune is shown on the map. |
| 05:30 | A message, routes found :1 appears in the Routing panel. |
| 05:36 | Let us zoom in to get a clear view of the route. |
| 05:44 | Distance between these two places is shown at the bottom of the Routing panel. |
| 05:50 | Below the input bars we see a Car (fastest) drop down button. |
| 05:56 | This drop-down button has four route profiles. |
| 06:01 | They are,
Car(fastest) |
| 06:04 | Car (shortest) |
| 06:06 | Bicycle and Pedestrian. |
| 06:09 | By default, Car(fastest) route profile is selected. |
| 06:14 | The route profile depends on the type of vehicle we choose. |
| 06:19 | On the map we see a route map from Mumbai to Pune with Car(fastest) route profile. |
| 06:27 | Let us find the same route map with Bicycle route profile. |
| 06:32 | Click on the Car(fastest) drop-down button and select Bicycle. |
| 06:37 | The Car fastest route profile from Mumbai to Pune is deleted. |
| 06:43 | Click on the Get directions button. |
| 06:46 | Please wait if buffering sign is seen. |
| 06:51 | A message No route found is seen on the Routing panel. |
| 06:55 | Click on the Settings icon in the Routing panel. |
| 06:58 | Configure Routing Profile - Marble Virtual Globe dialog box opens. |
| 07:05 | Under the Active Route Services Service Settings, uncheck all the checkboxes. |

| 07:16 | Click on the OK button in the box. |
| 07:19 | Now click on the Get Directions button. |
| 07:23 | A new route map appears on the map with Bicycle route profile. |
| 07:29 | Now we will see how to remove this route map.
Right-click on the ending point B. |
