Mission Planner: Is it possible for multiple polygons?

Ground Control Software Mission Planner

Hello,

It is possible to make multiple polygons on the same file? I have a ton of polygons I would like to put on one file, and not have to separately load each one.

I would also find this useful, or at least the ability to load several polygons at once while planning a mission.

There’s work going on to enable this, but it involves changing a few things behind the scenes (which have been prototyped but not merged yet). Discussion here: https://github.com/mavlink/mavlink/pull/1510 and here: https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/pull/15550

Hello @Michael_Oborne,

Sorry for the delayed response. I’m looking to input .poly or .shape files, and a multitude of them. I unfortunately cannot use Altitude Angel due to other reasons, but need this to input multiple airspace boundaries on Mission Planner. The only way to do this currently is too converge all the .shape files into one; however, I’d like the option to throw the ones I need for my flight. Let me know if this is something we can do.
