MapOut

We like the secret handshake thing😄 @bikepackingcom : “Oh, you know MapOut too?” You do the secret handshake and give each other the knowing eye. bikepacking.com/gear/editors-d…

@lseelenbinder Really cool! Enjoy it!

After four years of dreaming, the plans finally came together. I’m doing a trans-Swiss bike tour, starting in St. Gallen and finishing in Geneva! If you’re along the route (National Routes 5&8) and want to join for a few km or meet up for a meal, give me a @! Map by @MapOutApp

@lieven @wdesmet Thanks for reporting! It looks like we don’t handle the OpenStreetMap “state: proposed” attribute yet. Will be fixed of course!

Yesterday we reached 1 TB (that is 1000 GB) of downloaded map data in a single day 😅 - I know, we provoked it a bit by hinting in the MapOut update description that you should update the map for the house numbers. We have now added additional servers - happy updating 😊

@swiss_geoportal @swisstopo @KKGEO_CCGEO @OpendataCH @opendataswiss @golliez @SwissOSM D.h. Auch das Höhenmodell wie z.B. swissALTI3D oder DHM25 wären dann frei verfügbar? Frage für einen Freund 😉

[BREAKING] @swisstopo goes #opendata ! Konkret: ab 1.3.2021 werden download (data.geo.admin.ch) und #geo #services WMS WMTS API geo.admin.ch/de/geo-dienstl… frei verfügbar sein / kein referrer Schutz #swissgis @KKGEO_CCGEO @OpendataCH @opendataswiss @golliez @SwissOSM

@EasyKoni You are right - there is/was a hiccup in our map processing, but it should be updating soon! It is currently processing and in a few days, there should be another map update. We try to maintain a weekly map update schedule…

@MapOutApp map data doesn’t update since over a month. (Or even 2) Hope you could have look into this? Apart from this a big shout out to you guys for your great work! I regularly update OSM here around Yogyakarta Indonesia.

Today: working off-site in the forest in my “wood office”. #homeoffice #office #wood #heatwave

Thanks @guardian for including MapOut in your listof the best mapping apps! 👏 theguardian.com/travel/2020/ma…

@olliewearn Nice use case!

Update: I’ve got it onto my phone (as displayed here using the wonderfully simple @MapOutApp). But still need it on GPS for local field teams who don’t have smart phones (yet)

OK people. I need to display a shapefile (polyline) on a Garmin GPS. This should be easy, but it's failing me. Can someone help?! Years ago, I knew how to create a .img file, and possibly this is what I need, but I can't for the life of me remember how. #GIS #fieldwork #qgis

@tanusoul This is not optimal… and a good input! We will take a look at it - general problem with paths are: There are so many different attributes (surface type, width, …) and making a consistent signature is difficult. Do you still know the area of your trip?

@johannesrieken @johnjcz Wow 🤗 thank you very much, very kind of you!

@johnjcz Thanks 🙏 ❤️

Thanks @AppStore for the feature in the „Swiss Made“ section 🙏

Currently there seems to be a bug in iOS 13 regarding sharing / opening GPX files. We hope Apple can fix this or we find a workaround. You can still import GPX files by using our free mapout.me account: #mapout-account" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">mapout.app/manual/#mapout…

MapOut 3.3 is on its way to the AppStore - we added one of the most requested feature: Multi-selection of tours to share, edit or move them in one go.

@mkflint It has to do something with bridle path, you are right! We once had a request to remove or mark them, so we don‘t lead people on bridle paths, but something went wrong it seems…

@filipbrocke Thanks 🙏! Yes, this is on the list for our next 3.3 release. We already built the bulk of it and are refining it (especially all the ways syncing can go wrong) hope to release it soon. But no fixed date yet…

@MapOutApp Outstanding app—love it! Any chance for iCloud sync soon?

@mkflint It could be a style issue (would need an app update) or a map-data preparation error (then we can fix it and it only needs a map data update) - not sure yet. Thanks 🙏 for reporting!

@mkflint Mhh, sounds like a problem! I will check further…

We finally updated our manual to the new MapOut 3.2 version - enjoy 📖 mapout.app/manual
