Trail maps without apps

  • View and edit in an internet browser on any device - from desktop computers to tablets and phones.

  • Give visitors one resource to enjoy a range of outdoor recreation activities, as well as easy-to-update listings for frontcountry visitor resources like restaurants and lodging.

  • Once the map is loaded in your browser, you can take the map offline to help stay on the trail.

  • Press publish to put important emergency and area closure updates on the map people are already using, and give them an online resource to check for updates to paper maps.

  • Keep the look consistent with your branding by changing the header logo, and restricting the zoom to your region only.

  • Accessibility info

  • Communicate emergency info

Ski & Bike Resorts

Let skiers and riders see their location on an updated trail map when they have cell coverage or wifi, and then take the map with them on their phones when they leave service.

curious?

I am looking to talk with visitor centres and destination marketing organizations in the Kootenay Rockies and Okanagan regions of British Columbia who are curious about a comprehensive interactive visitor map. Send in the form if you’d like to get in touch, or better yet, just give Kirsten a call (zero obligation).
