Explore the rich landscapes around the Grand Canyon and Arizona while you discover Scenic Map, the best 3D topo map for the iPad and iPhone. The vector map data is contained within the app and can be used without an internet connection. Use it in a car, a boat, a plane or while hiking.

Online satellite image overlays add breathtaking detail and realism to the maps (tap preset 2 or 4 when Online Map is enabled). You can use them as you travel to see what is hidden from view at ground level. This takes moving maps to a whole new level. With an in-app purchase you can expand the coverage to the entire world via the Scenic Map online map and cache the data for offline use.

Use the two finger vertical swipe gesture to tilt the map for a 3D view. Scroll like a map or fly like a flight simulator. Enable Joystick Gestures in the Settings menu and then fly around the terrain using a virtual joystick. Prefer only 2D maps? Enable the 2D Map option in the Settings menu.

Scenic Map is simply the best 3D topo map available for a mobile device. You will see incredible detail while scrolling, rotating and zooming perfectly smoothly. You will see every road even if you zoom out to the altitude of a satellite. As you zoom in, you will see every small bump and hollow of the Earth and terrain features as small as ten meters. Unlike old fashioned topo maps, Scenic Map’s roads and trails are up to date thanks to OpenStreetMap.org. It contains polygons for urban areas, shopping malls, an ever growing number of buildings and many other features, The best lake, pond, stream and rivers from the USGS and Canadian public databases are also included.

Tap the GPS center button to begin tracking your location. As you move, you will generate a track file. Tracks can be replayed with video like controls to speed up, slow down, pause, restart or skip to the end. You can display existing tracks while recording another if you want to retrace your route. When online, you can automatically create a route from your current GPS location to any other point on the map. Tracks can be received from or sent to other apps in GPX format. GPS recording stops automatically after you have remained stationary for some time or you can choose to manually stop tracking by tapping on the top track in the Tracks view.

Never before have maps been this customizable. For example, you can turn on or off the roads. You can change the lighting direction or remove terrain shading entirely. You can display contour lines even over satellite images. There are five presets which let you quickly switch between map styles. Use Metric, English or Nautical units and choose one of four different coordinate displays including UTM.

Want to learn more about a map feature? Tap the target icon and center the feature under the compass rose to display its name, type, urban area, county, state, elevation and coordinates. You will also see a bearing line back to your current GPS location or from your location to a selected waypoint. The status bar shows the bearing direction and distance along with the map and GPS elevation, the track length, and your current speed and direction of travel.

In-app documentation is provided in the Help section at the top of the Settings menu. Links are provided in the documentation to detailed coverage maps, tutorial videos, installation guide and blog at ScenicMap.com

Pour le plaisir des yeux !

Lexemple du Track "Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour" est magnifique du décollage au retour à travers le fond du Canyon. Je vais tester lapplication sur un survol du Grand Canyon en Hélicoptère, 25 mn seulement bientôt en juin 2012... Application à prendre comme un divertissement ludique et vérifier que la 3D respecte bien le paysage. Sur les tracks de démo on voit lombre de lavion ou de lhélico donnant encore plus limpression dêtre devant le film de "Stars War" !!!

Nul

Simplement nul

Cardin02

Très décevant; aucune information sur la façon de sen servir; jai déjà visité le GC et cette carte ne me permet pas de my retrouver.

Useless

A whole lotta megabytes for a whole lotta nothing. I just went to the Grand Canyon. The best guide was a printed book about Arizona by AAA.

Huh?

Really not very useful. A lot of space for little benefit. Also it boasts no need for Internet, but, it would be better to use other tools for research and map use of these areas. This simply gives very little for the space it takes.. Sorry.

Sad

Terrible UI, non-responsive interface... Too bad, because apps like this could be very cool. Yes, it works, but its very poorly done.

Very cool

I like it. Alot of attention went into the details. Unfortunatley the iPhone screen is so small its hard to appreciate the true potential of this app. Ive been to the canyon and 3g isnt an option so loading could be an issue. But all things considered, including the price (FREE), its a nice app.
