APRS SYMBOL OVERLAY and EXTENSION TABLES in APRS 1.2 17 Mar 2021
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
BACKGROUND: Since October 2007, overlay characters (36/symbol) are
|
|
allowed on all symbols. This allows thousands of uniquely specified
|
|
symbols instead of the original 188 (94 primary and 94 alternate).
|
|
But the master symbol document, http://aprs.org/symbols/symbolsX.txt,
|
|
only has one line per symbol. So this added overlay list below gives
|
|
us thousands of new symbol codes.
|
|
|
|
17 Mar 21 Added L& for LORA Igate
|
|
24 Jun18: Updated CAR symbols
|
|
17 Jun18: Added several overlays for RAIL symbol
|
|
03 Apr17: Added Methane Hazard symbol "MH"
|
|
13 Feb17: Added Ez = Emergency Power (shelter), Cars: P> = Plugin
|
|
S> = Solar powered. Moved Ham club C- to Buildings Ch.
|
|
Added C- to house for combined renewables and added R%
|
|
Renewable to power plants
|
|
|
|
18 Oct16: Added G,Y,R for Flood gauges + N for Normal.(on H2O symbol)
|
|
Added DIGIPEATERS
|
|
22 Mar16: Added A0 overlay circle for ALSTAR nodes and V0 for VOIP.
|
|
Combined echolink and IRLP. P& for PSKmail node. W& for
|
|
Wires-X (was W0 for WiresII). Ya for Yaesu C4FM repeaters
|
|
|
|
Update 29 Oct 2015: Reorgainized list to Alphabetical Order.
|
|
+ Added many new Balloons (due to lost DoD radar Blimp yesterday)
|
|
+ Confirmed D^ for Drones was already in there since 2014
|
|
+ Added R^ type aircraft for remotely piloted
|
|
+ Added S^ Solar Powered Aircraft
|
|
+ Noticed all new category \= is availalbe. Had been shown ast
|
|
APRStt, but that was changed in 2009 to overlay BOX symbols.
|
|
|
|
UPDATES/REVISIONS/CORRECTIONS:
|
|
|
|
2014 Added numerous OpenAPRS symbol. Changed Da to DSTAR from Dutch
|
|
ARES. Added Subs to ships and lots of Aircraft overlays.
|
|
2013 Added ship overlay Jet Ski. Ham Club as C overlay on House, C-
|
|
2011 Added T and 2 overlays for TX 1 and 2 hop IGates
|
|
Added overlays to (;) Portables Added Radiation Detector (RH)
|
|
2010 Byonics requested (BY) and added #A to the table
|
|
2009 Added W0 for Yaesu WIRES and APRStt symbol to overlayed BOX (#A)
|
|
2008 Added RFID R=, Babystroller B], Radio#Y, skull&Xbones XH
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEPRICATION AND MAJOR REVISION: 25 Mar 08 Modified several Alternate
|
|
Symbol codes for expanded Overlays. The following alternate base
|
|
symbols were redefined so that the basic symbol could take on dozens
|
|
of unique overlay definitions:
|
|
|
|
\= - Had been undefined
|
|
\0 - Several overlays for the numbered Circle
|
|
\A - (BOX symbol) APRStt(DTMF), RFID users, XO (OLPC)
|
|
\' - Was Crash Site. Now expanded to be INCIDENT sites
|
|
\% - is an overlayed Powerplant. See definitions below
|
|
\H - \H is HAZE but other H overlays are HAZARDs. WH is "H.Waste"
|
|
\Y - Overlays for Radios and other APRS devices
|
|
\k - Overlay Special vehicles. A = ATV for example
|
|
\u - Overlay Trucks. "Tu" is a tanker. "Gu" is a gas truck, etc
|
|
\< - Advisories may now have overlays
|
|
\8 - Nodes with overlays. "G8" would be 802.11G
|
|
\[ - \[ was wall cloud, but overlays are humans. S[ is a skier.
|
|
\h - Was Ham store, Now Overlays are buildings "Hh" Home Depot, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4 Oct 2007. ORIGINAL EXPANSION to OVERLAYS ON ALL SYMBOLS
|
|
|
|
In April 2007, a proposal to expand the use of overlay bytes for
|
|
the extension of the APRS symbol set was added to the draft APRS1.2
|
|
addendum web page. The following document addresses that proposal:
|
|
|
|
http://aprs.org/symbols/symbols-overlays.txt
|
|
|
|
For details on Upgrading your symbol set, please see the background
|
|
information on Symbols prepared by Stephen Smith, WA8LMF:
|
|
|
|
www.aprs.org/symbols/symbols-background.txt
|
|
|
|
CONSISTANCY: Since the objective of APRS is consistent, reliable
|
|
communications at the local level, there has been a hesitance to
|
|
making significant changes to the APRS symbol set. The Integrity
|
|
of APRS depends on everyone seeing the same information at the
|
|
same time. Frequent changes to the symbol sets can actually
|
|
undermine that integrity and operational utility of APRS and end up
|
|
with worse outcomes due to miss-communications than the lack of any
|
|
particular symbol might suggest.
|
|
|
|
OVERLAY HISTORY: When the overlay symbol set was first defined for
|
|
the original APRS back in 1995, it had the potential to expand the
|
|
APRS symbol set from the 94 original primary symbols to a secondary
|
|
set that could each have as many as 36 diffeernt overlays on each of
|
|
those secondary symbols up to almost 3500 combinations. But some
|
|
authors then could not easily implement these overlays, except by
|
|
one-by-one exceptions to their code.
|
|
|
|
For this reason, a compromise was made with those authors and then
|
|
eventually written into the APRS spec to limit overlays to only a
|
|
small subset of alternate symbols. Those original overlayable
|
|
alternate symbols were labeled with a "#" and called "numbered"
|
|
symbols. (UIview requires "No." in the symbols.ini file)
|
|
|
|
STATUS OF OVERLAYS 1 OCTOBER 2007: the APRS symbol set was limited
|
|
to about 94 symbols and only had a few remaining unused symbol
|
|
codes that had not yet been defined:
|
|
|
|
OF THE 94 Primary Symbols. The following were available:
|
|
10 symbols (/0 - /9) that mostly look like billiard balls now
|
|
4 symbols /D, /J, /Q, /z were undefined or TBD
|
|
2 were reserved
|
|
|
|
OF THE 94 Alternate Symbols. The following were available:
|
|
3 undefined series \=, \Y, \Z which could do 36 overlays
|
|
8 series \1 through \8 that can support 36 overlays each
|
|
3 reserved series.
|
|
|
|
BASIS FOR OVERLAY EXPANSION: But any of the other 79 alternate
|
|
symbols could all have multiple (36) overlays if they can make sense
|
|
with the existing underlying basic symbol that we have been using for
|
|
that basic alternate symbol. That is, any new definition of a
|
|
previously unused overlay character will have undefined results on all
|
|
prior APRS systems and should be used with caution. But the symbol
|
|
set is extensible with these cautions. (See the Proposal that would
|
|
expand the APRS symbol set to over 3200 at the bottom of this
|
|
document.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYMBOL OVERLAY TABLES: This document will keep track of all
|
|
definitions of overlays on all ALTERNATE symbols. Although these
|
|
overlays were originally intended to just overlay a displayable
|
|
single character on a basic symbol, there is no prohibition against
|
|
taking the combination of a symbol and specific overlay, and then
|
|
letting that define a new graphic just for that combination.
|
|
|
|
The following tables will attempt to keep track of these and
|
|
any other useful generic applications of overlay characters.
|
|
|
|
AMPLIFIED some existing ALTERNATE SYMBOL Overlays: (Aug 2014)
|
|
change Flooding #W to include Avalanche, Mudslide/Landslide
|
|
Update #' name to crash & incident sites

Anyone can use any overlay on any of the overlayable symbols for any

special purpose. We are not trying to document all possible such

|
overlays. The purpose of this document is to help keep a list of
|
|
more common such definitions that have more universal use and for
|
|
which multiple definitions would lead to confusion.
|
|
|
|
Future APRS code writers should be aware of where we are going:

PROPOSAL TO ASSIGN MANY MORE BLOCKS OF SYMBOL SETS April 2007
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
www.aprs.org/symbols/symbols-overlays.txt
|
|
|
|
In the initiative to upgrade APRS symbols, we are wasting some
|
|
very valuable OVERLAYABLE symbol subgroups with a few nailed
|
|
down legacy weather symbols. We are proposing to consolidate
|
|
some of these Weather symbols to open up much more space. Since
|
|
this is the first time we have considered actually CHANGING some
|
|
symbol definitions, this can cause problems out there for some
|
|
users of some legacy systems.
|
|
|
|
That is why I am posting this plan to the APRS community. If we
|
|
do this, XASTIR and UIVIEW will be able to download new symbol
|
|
definitions. But some legacy clients that do not operate from
|
|
external symbol files will show the wrong symbols for these. If
|
|
users of those systems forsee some serious problems with the
|
|
re-arrangement of these symbols, let us know the specific impact
|
|
and your ideas for a workaround..
|
|
|
|
The symbols that would be impacted are as follows:
|
|
|
|
First, consolidate all of the visibility symbols into the old
|
|
SMOKE symbol and change its meaning to "VISIBILITY", and then
|
|
differentiate them with the overlay characters.
|
|
|
|
"\E" (existing smoke) the symbol with no overlay
|
|
"HE" (an H overlay) will mean Haze
|
|
"SE" (an S overlay) will mean Smoke

"BE" (a B overlay) will mean Blowing Snow was \B
|
|
"DE" (a D overlay) will mean blowing Dust or sand was \b
|
|
"FE" (an F overlay) will mean Fog was \{
|
|
|
|
Another category is to expand the RAIN symbol to make it kinda
|
|
like lots of angled dots coming from the sky, but with an open
|
|
center so that we can use overlays for a number of common
|
|
PRECIPITATIONS. The consolidations would be:
|
|
|
|
"\`" (existing Rain) would be the symbol with no overlay
|
|
"R`" (an R overlay) would mean Rain
|
|
"F`" (an F overlay) would mean Freezing Rain was \F
|
|
"H`" (an H overlay) would mean Hail was\:
|
|
"D`" (an D overlay) would mean Drizzle was \D
|
|
"E`" (an E overlay) would mean slEEt was \e
|
|
"S`" (an S overlay) would mean Snow was \*
|
|
Etc. and other particulates coming from the sky
|
|
|
|
Next, I propose expanding the existing RAIN SHOWER "\I" symbol
|
|
to look like some kind of cloud symbol with specks in it that
|
|
can be overlayed. (It needs to look different from the next
|
|
CLOUD symbol). It can then consolidate these symbols:
|
|
|
|
"RI" (an R overlay) would mean Rain Shower
|
|
"SI" (an S overlay) would mean Snow shower was \G
|
|
"LI" (an L overlay) would mean Lightening was \J
|
|
Etc. and other things related to clouds
|
|
|
|
Next, I propose expanding the existing CLOUD symbol to allow
|
|
definition of any number of different types of cloud. This
|
|
needs to also look like a cloud but a different shape and allow
|
|
for overlays (Maybe this cloud is clear):
|
|
|
|
"\(" is the existing cloud symbol (would have no overlay)
|
|
"P(" with P overlay would mean partly cloudy was \p
|
|
"W(" with W overlay would be a wall cloud was \[
|
|
"F(" would be Funnel cloud, but the original "\f" will also be
|
|
retained for now
|
|
|
|
All of these initiative will free up a lot of overlayable symbol
|
|
GROUPS each of which can suport up to 36 different overlays in
|
|
each group for the future:
|
|
|
|
#H for 36 new Hazards (was only Hail)
|
|
#[ for 36 new human symbols (was only Wall Cloud)
|
|
#\ for 36 new GPS or navigation equipment
|
|
#B TBD. \B was only blowing snow now is BE
|
|
#b TBD. \b was only blowing dust/sand now is DE
|
|
#{ TBD. \{ was only fog now is FE
|
|
#* TBD. \* was snow only now is S`
|
|
#: TBD. \: was hail only now is H`
|
|
#D TBD. \D was drizzle only now is D`
|
|
#F TBD. \F was freezing rain only now is F`
|
|
#e TBD. \e was sleet only now is E`
|
|
#G TBD. \G was only Snow shower now is SI
|
|
#J TBD. \J was only Lightening now is LI
|
|
#p TBD. \p was only partly cloudy now is P(
|
|
|
|
Of course future code can fully draw each of these overlays as
|
|
distinct special symbols in any way they want.
|
|
|
|
I especially want to hear from Dale Hugley who
|
|
is a resource for weather, and Stephen Smith who will have to
|
|
draw them for Uiview. And others with a stake in this...
