Easy to use outdoor navigation app with free access to the best topographic maps and aerial images for the USA.

Turn your Andoid Phone/Tablet into an outdoor GPS for trips into the backcountry.

*** Attention: Kindle Fire devices without GPS-sensor can not use Track-Rec or GoTo-Nav feature ! ***

*** Attention: DRG maps are quite old in some areas. Please use other map layers like USGS National Map or OSM for most recent maps !! ***

USGS DRG topographic maps:
The 7.5-minute maps (1:24.000/1:25.000) are the best maps for outdoor activities in the USA. Although some of the maps are quite old, they contain many small pathes and 4WD tracks that are missing in new USTopos, Google, Bing and OSM maps.
DRGs (Digital Raster Graphics) were produced from 1995 to 2001 by U.S. Geological Survey. DRGs have been made for all quadrangles in the USGS map series.

New US Topo Maps:
US Topo maps are a graphic synthesis of The National Map data files and are produced in the familiar 7.5-minute by 7.5- minute geographic format. Current US Topo map layers include an orthoimage base, transportation, geographic names, topographic contours, boundaries, hydrography and woodlands. Also included are the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) and the United States National Grid.

NAIP Orthoimagery:
Seamless coverage of contiguous US with 1m/pixel resolution

HRO aerial imagery:
High resolution arial photos covering US urban areas and borders (up to 10cm/pixel)

Use this navigation app for outdoor activities like hiking, biking, camping, climbing, riding, skiing, canoeing, hunting, offroad 4WD tours or search&rescue (SAR).

Add custom waypoints in longitude/latitude, UTM or MGRS/USNG format with WGS84 datum.

Import/Export/Share GPS-Waypoints/Tracks/Routes in GPX or Google Earth KML/KMZ format.

View Real-time nowCoast weather information like temperature or windvectors and overlay to map.
