Adding Markers

To increase situational awareness, markers can be placed on fixed coordinates on the map. These markers are then displayed in the video for compatible camera systems. They will also appear on the map of connected ATAK devices.

Setting a marker

  1. Go to Fly View > Marker Tool (with map primary and video secondary)

  2. Select the desired marker type

  3. Click on the location on the map to place the marker, or enter the coordinates in the upper-right corner and select Create

Selecting a marker shows the position and elevation of the selected marker.

Deleting markers

  • To delete a single marker, select it on the map and click the delete icon in the upper-right corner of the marker information.

  • To delete all markers, click the delete symbol in the Marker Tool window on the left side of the screen.

Marker Manager

To open the Marker Manager, select the folder symbol in the Marker Tool window on the left side of the screen. The Marker Manager allows you to edit, save, import, and export markers.

Note: For markers to appear in the video feed, the camera must broadcast its field of view. If a gimbal is in use, its attitude must also be reported.
