Add an image

It is possible to add an image along the distance axis to enrich the readability of the Time-Location schedule.

This feature can be used, for example, to display:

• an orthophoto
• a project plan
• an infrastructure diagram
• a map background

The image is then displayed directly below the schedule and aligned with the distance axis.

In the Distance axis tab, click + to add a new line.

Then select the Image type.

Click Import image to load the image to display.

An image is positioned on the schedule using two values:

• Value 1: starting chainage
• Value 2: ending chainage

These two reference points define the portion of the project covered by the image.

The image is automatically stretched between these two points so that it matches the real distance of the project.

Several parameters allow the image display to be adjusted:

• Line height

defines the height of the image band

• Fixed ratio

preserves the proportions of the image

These settings help adapt the image to the readability of the schedule.

Using images allows you to add visual geographical context to the Time-Location schedule and improves the understanding of the project.
