Forsk Atoll – WMS Map Tiles

A hack I found useful to add Google Maps / Google Satelite View / Bing Maps / Bing Arial / Open Street Maps in Forsk Atoll.

Close Atoll,

Go to C -> Program Files -> Atoll

Edit the file named atoll.ini

Paste the following into it:

[OnlineMaps]

Save and open Atoll,

Open the Geo Tab,

Right click on Online Maps, click “New”

Select the map source (In this example I’m using OSM) & hit Ok.

Enable the Online Map layer by ticking the layer.

Bam, done.
