This marker displays the GPS location of the current device on the map (if the camera was in Camera preview mode), or the GPS location of the loaded photo. The location can be changed by tapping and holding a finger over the icon and then moving it to another location on the map. The finger should be held long enough so that the icon pops into view.

If you were viewing a photo, then when you return back from map view, the current location for the photo will change to the location you selected on the map. Note, however, that the new location is not written to the original photo. However, if you were looking at the camera preview, then the view location will change back to the device's GPS location when you return back from map view.

Note: If you plan to visit a location for which there is no data connection, or if you want to restrict the downloading of Digital Elevation Map (DEM) files to when you have a Wifi connection(Settings->3D Terrain/Wifi download) then you may wish to download the DEM files while you have a wifi connection by dragging the "Current Location" marker to the place you plan to visit on the map and then return to the main viewing page. This way the DEM files for that location can be downloaded ahead of time.

This marker shows the direction of PeakIdentify's view. The orange shaded section of the circle shows the area covered by the field of view. The radius of the circle shows the currently selected maximum peak distance.

The view direction can be changed by long pressing the marker (tap the marker and hold until the marker pops from underneath your finger) and then moving to a different direction. The maximum selected peak distance can also be changed by moving the marker away or towards the location marker.

If you were viewing a photo, then when you return back from map view, the current view direction will change to the new direction. However, if you were looking at the camera preview, then the view direction will change back to the direction computed by PeakIdentify based on the device's sensors.

This marker shows the direction of the sun at the current location, at the current time. Tapping the marker will display the sun's azimuth (angle in a horizontal plane, measured from due North) and it's altitude (angle above the horizontal plane; a negative angle indicates the sun is below the horizon at the current time). The pop-up panel will also display sunrise and sunset times for the current date and location.

You can change the current date and/or time by tapping in the action bar, or selecting Set date/time from the action menu (). This will allow you to view where the sun will be close to sunrise or sunset. This could be helpful, for example, in planning where to locate your camera for taking pictures with the sun setting or rising above a mountain peak.

This marker shows the direction of the moon at the current location, at the current time. Tapping the marker will display the moon's azimuth (angle in a horizontal plane, measured from due North) and it's altitude (angle above the horizontal plane; a negative angle indicates the sun is below the horizon at the current time). The pop-up panel will also display moonrise and moonset times for the current date and location.

You can change the current date and/or time by tapping in the action bar, or selecting Set date/time from the action menu (). This will allow you to view where the moon will be close to moonrise or moonset. This could be helpful, for example, in planning where to locate your camera for taking pictures with the moon setting or rising above a mountain peak.

These mark the location of each peak within the current min/max distance from the current location and min/max height. Tapping a marker will show the peak name, distance, and height. You can search for specific peaks by name, or narrow the displayed peaks by setting min/max distance or min/max height.

You can adjust the date and time in the same way you set the date/time in the main view. The main purpose of this is to view how the sun and moon directions change with time.

You can display the Google map in one of the following modes:

Normal

Display labeled roads, locations, etc.

Terrain

Display shaded terrain/height relief.

Satellite

Display satellite view (no road markings).

Hybrid

Display satellite view plus road markings.

Tap the filter icon to display a specific peak or to limit the range of peaks in view to those within a given distance range and a given height range. You can enter the filter using the keyboard or you can use voice commands by tapping

You can:

• Select a single peak by typing or saying it's name
• Select peaks within a given height range by typing or saying:
  • Show me peaks higher than 1000 feet
  • Show me peaks lower than 1000 meters
  • Show me peaks shorter than 10000 feet and taller than 7000 feet
  The effect of consecutive commands is cumulative, so that selecting peaks higher than 2000 feet, for example, followed by selecting peaks lower than 10,000 feet, for example, would result in peak heights being higher than 200 feet and lower than 10,000 feet.
• Select peaks within a given distance range by typing or saying:
  • Show me peaks nearer than 20 miles
  • Show me peaks farther than one km
  • Show me peaks closer than 30 kilometers and further than one mile
  As with height selection, the effect of consecutive commands is cumulative.

Currently the list of comparison words that PeakIdentify understands is: "above", "below", "lower", "higher", "shorter", "taller", "farther", "further", "closer", "nearer", "greater", "less", "more"
