Description

Track your flight with GPS - discover information about the world below and clouds above with offline maps and points of interest. Worldwide. **GPS functionality is only possible from the window seat and GPS reception quality varies by device/conditions** Learn about the world along the path of your flight, hike, or road trip with GPS tracking. Offline geologic maps and interactive points of interest reveal the locations of fossils, core samples, and georeferenced Wikipedia articles visible from your airplane window seat, road trip, or hiking trail vista. Follow Flyover Country for updates and photos from the sky! https://www.facebook.com/flyovercountryapp/ https://twitter.com/flyovergeo/ https://www.instagram.com/flyovergeo/ https://flyovercountry.io/ Submit issues, suggestions, and comments via Google Forms http://goo.gl/forms/Yhw9AvMcbTOHTZCf1 Flyover Country is a National Science Foundation funded offline mobile app for geoscience outreach and data discovery. The app exposes interactive geologic maps from Macrostrat.org, fossil localities from Neotomadb.org and Paleobiodb.org, Wikipedia articles, offline base maps, and the user’s current GPS determined location, altitude, speed, and heading. The app analyzes a given flight path and caches relevant map data and points of interest (POI), and displays these data during the flight, without in flight wifi. By downloading only the data relevant to a particular flightpath, cache sizes remain reasonable, allowing for a robust experience without an internet connection. Flyover Country is not limited to the window seat of airplanes. It is also ideal for road trips, hiking, and other outdoor activities such as field trips and geologic field work.

Not working

K................ · 9 years ago · v0.3.4

I only get a blank map and {{text}} buttons

Very good.

NotMineAnymore · 9 years ago · v0.3.4

Provided quite some good details for my trip from Zürich to Singapore. A decent corridor for offline tracking and hundreds of points of interest along the way. Really looking forward to see the offline capabilities work the coming week.

It is a really nice app

Michal.v · 10 years ago · v0.1.6

Grat fun when traveling

Great educational tool

DigitalCyclist · 9 years ago · v0.2.8

Turn flight into geography lessons! Awesome! The only drawback is that GPS reception is weak in the window seats of many planes - too much metal screening.

Interesting idea. Terrible execution.

0x8BADF00D · 9 years ago · v0.2.5

This app has a lot of problems. At one point it got stuck in a state where I couldnt pan the map, which made it pretty useless. Closing and restarting the app fixed that, but then I set my route and tried to download the tiles, and the download seemed to just get stuck. The progress indicator is more or less worthless. Overall, it didnt seem worth the trouble.

Totally useless

Hmountford · 9 years ago · v0.2.5

All it would do is show me where I was on the map. Refused to access any info regarding what was below. Deleted it.

I am loving it!

SkyMuffin9 · 9 years ago · v0.2.5

I fly several days a week for work and Im really enjoying this app. Ive not had any problems with downloading unless I was connected to crappy hotel wifi. Ive recommended it to several co-workers and they love it as well. Im using the app on an iPad mini. So far no downloading or freezing issues. My only minor issue thus far is Id like my saved city pairs to alphabetize. Thanks for the fun app!
