1. This app gives you similar mapping options as you might know from Garmin or Magellan GPS handhelds. • Tripmaster with fields for odometer, average speed, bearing, elevation, etc. • Customizable datafields in Map View and Tripmaster (e. g.
2. For many countries in Africa and Asia these maps still belong to the best available topomaps. • Topomaps worldwide (worldwide seamless coverage, mainly 1:100.
3. Soviet Military Maps is the perfect moving map app for offroad trips, adventure travels and expeditions.
4. Offroad Navigation App with worldwide topographic maps (mainly Russian General Staff).
5. Beneath the good topography the maps include many small trails and unpaved roads that are missing in other map sets.
6. Attention: The Soviet Military Maps were created mainly in the 80ies and are less interesting for industrialized countries.
7. Please note: This app does not provide direct "Turn-by-Turn" navigation - but with a selected waypoint you can easily switch to Google Navigation.
8. You are planning cross country trips to Sahara desert or a trekking tour to the Himalayas ?
9. Outside Africa and Asia you'll find the OSM / Google map layers more useful.
10. Speed, Distance, Compass, ... • Waypoint-/Track-Sharing (via eMail, Facebook, ..
11. With the Russian topos you have always a great alternative to other map sources.
1. Minus two stars if I am allowed to pout about missing north American coverage.I used app' in 2016,it is good user friendly interface.However the developer should improve on grid accuracies, waypoints activation which exceeds more than 3 positions on the map,it embarrasses bcoz of limited savings of user's points on the map.improve on, make it a 4or 5 generation map, allow it to use satellites aerial map.Now I installed that back, good! Please add modern russian military map layer⚔️It is amazing map! Very detailed maps(but with time some details changed of course).
2. The wonderful book, "The Red Atlas: How the Soviet Union Secretly Mapped the World," has many, many examples of how, even though the Soviets primarily copied USGS map content, they gave it their own twist, and added some information from other sources (spies? satellite imagery? National Geographic?).
3. The Soviet maps are a treat, even for otherwise well-mapped areas such as Western Europe, and there are other maps sources as well, including Open Topo Maps and Esri, so it is more useful than just the Soviet maps would be.
4. The biggest disappointment is that Soviet maps are not provided for North America, instead USGS are substituted for the US, sources I am less familiar with for Canada and Mexico.
5. Google terrain (especially overzoom) works even better then in Google Maps.Very happy with this app; at home and when travelling to remote places.
6. Install this, and you will get the developer's long-available "Soviet Military Maps" app on your device.
7. This app is reliable and accurate, nice thing for traveling, you can found some interesting places or you can plan details of your trip knowing the topography of area.Easy to locate places.
8. I purchased pro versionWas useful even when only old topo maps were available, and today evolved into an even more useful multi-layer map app.
9. Although the info is not up to date (regarding villages and roads) it is very usefull for trips to the mountains ....be it Central Asia or the Himalaya.Could only find a white image of an island I was looking.
10. Map lovers may despair, but scanning all of the US would be a huge expense for minimal added utility., and I presume their corporate focus is on utility, not entertainment.
11. better than Google maps.
