About this app

Easy to use outdoor navigation app with free access to the best available maps and aerial imagery for Canada.

Choose between 30+ map layers (topos, aerials, sea charts, ...) to plan the perfect trip and
turn your Andoid Phone/Tablet into an outdoor GPS for offline trips into the backcountry.

*** Note: Please use Canada Base Map, Toporama or OpenStreetMap layer if you need most recent topo maps ! ***

Add easily maps from other sources (GeoPDF, GeoTiff, Online Map Services like WMS, ...)

Available base map layers for Canada:
• Topomaps Canada (CanMatrix, seamless coverage at scales 1:50.000 and 1:250.000), incl. USA 1:24.000 - 1:250.000), > 30.000 maps
• Canada Basemap CBMT (CanVec, NTDB, Atlas of Canada)
• Toporama Maps Canada in EN&FR (CanVec, NTDB, Atlas of Canada)
• CanTopo (new Canada Topos at 1:50.000, partial coverage of Canada, mainly in the North)
• Ontario LIO Topo Maps
• Québec Topo Maps 1:20.000
• Saskatchewan Orthophotos
• Nova Scotia Othophotos
• British Columbia Topo Maps
• Nautical Charts ENC
• Digital Elevation Model
• HRDEM (HiRes Elevation Model, parts of Canada)

Worldwide basemap layers:
• OpenStreetMaps (5 different map layouts), also downloadable in space saving vectorformat
• Google Maps (Satellite images, Road- and Terrain-Map)
• Bing Maps (Satellite images, Road-Map)
• ESRI Maps (Satellite images, Road- and Terrain-Map)
• Waze Roads
• Earth At Night

Configure a basemap layer as an overlay and utilize a transparency fader to seamlessly compare maps with each other.

Add maps from other sources:
• Import raster maps in GeoPDF, GeoTiff, MBTiles or Ozi (Oziexplorer OZF2 & OZF3)
• Add web mapping services as WMS or WMTS/Tileserver
• Import OpenStreetMaps in Vectorformat, eg complete USA for just some GBs

Available Canada map Overlays - add additional information to any other base map:
• CanVec features such as Transportation, Contourlines, Hydronetwork, Toponymic Features, etc.
• Nova Scotia Roads
• Yukon Transportation

Available worldwide overlays:
• Hillshading overlay
• 20m Contourlines
• OpenSeaMap

There is no perfect map. Toggle between the different map layers or use the compare maps feature to find the most interesting route. Especially the old CanMatrix Topos contain many small pathes or other features that are missing on modern maps.

Ratings and reviews

Nice app overall, free version includes many land maps for roads and trails. UI is somewhat slow though, especially with multiple layers, and no transparency aside from "Compare maps." Want an app that lets me load free Canadian DFO maps but unfortunately this ain't it. Can't connect to a WMS server. Requests a Pro upgrade for some features but when you try that it returns a "null token" error. Cleared cache, updated, same boat. Argh.

Initial impression excellent! Lots of features in free version — I don't know what the cranks have going on in their heads. 😜😁 Yes, long list of maps to choose from and quality varies considerably. Be grateful and disable the ones you won't use at all. Some minor features mislabeled on some maps — not the app developer's fault. OpenStreet, OpenTopo and the ESRI selections are my faves for now.

I was looking for something to measure point to point distance since Google Maps doesn't, and I can't get Foreflight on an Android device. Got exactly what I needed within 30 seconds of opening it. The 1:50000 scale is the same that I use for air SAR as well, so it should be very useful. I will definitely consider buying pro if I start using it more.
