Planning software for autonomous surface and underwater vehicles.
Building on Windows 10
These were the steps followed using the lastest versions at the time. May also work with different versions.

Building GDAL
- edited nmake.opt modifiying GDAL_HOME to desired install location
- opened x64 Native Tools COmmand Prompt for VS 2017
- cd'ed to GDAL source directory
- nmake -f makefile.vc MSVC_VER=1910 WIN64=1
- nmake -f makefile.vc MSVC_VER=1910 WIN64=1 devinstall
Building AutonomousMissionPlanner
- Using CMake GUI, choose source directory and build directory (created ./build/ in source directory)
- Picked Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64 as the generator.
- Help CMake find QT5 by pointing Qt5_DIR at C:\Qt\Qt5.9.1\5.9.1\msvc2017_64\lib\cmake\Qt5
- Specify GDAL header and library locations
- Customized CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. (Default gave access errors trying to install)

Contributed by @shujaatak to solve issue with finding proj4 dll at runtime:
Building PROJ4
- Download PROJ4 - https://github.com/OSGeo/proj.4
- Unzip it.
- In the source directory, edit nmake.opt modifiying INSTDIR to desired install/build location
- Run "VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt" for VS 2015
- Change directory to PROJ4 source directory
- Run these commands one after other:
-
- nmake /f makefile.vc MSVC_VER=1910 WIN64=1
-
- nmake /f makefile.vc MSVC_VER=1910 WIN64=1 install-all
- After completion, you will find the compiled PROJ4 lib, include and bin folders in your specified install/build location, From bin folder, copy proj.dll to the AutonomousMissionPlanner.exe folder. Done!
