OziExplorer 3D - Create and View a Track Profile

The creation of a Track Profile assumes you have elevation data installed for the map you are using.

The Track Profile allows a track to be created along a defined straight line. The altitude for positions along this line are determined and stored with the track points for later display.

The created Track Profile is just a normal OziExplorer track and can be manipulated using the standard track methods.
