What is MapSphere?

MapSphere is a manageable way to view and organize geographical data of different kind. This might be raster maps and satellite imagery from various sources, your own information received from GPS, tracks of your friends, whatever you want.

Maps and satellite images

You can attach any maps or other geographical data to MapSphere that are available as extensions.

The data is downloaded automatically while scrolling or zooming the map. It is stored locally on the hard drive, so you keep control over it. For example, you can download maps for some area and then work with them without internet connection.

Different data representations extend your possibilities. A traditional 2D (flat) view mode is fast and very suitable for data editing, while a modern 3D mode depicts naturally looking views from any point around the Earth.

There are 2 additional views that can be customized to your needs and display your local and global positions at the same time.

You can search for geographically referenced objects of different nature by selecting a proper search extension such as geocoding provider plug-in for street addresses.

Navigation

Extend the functionality of your GPS receiver by attaching it to MapSphere installed on your notebook. Live tracking of the current position and special information screens can make your travel easier.

GeoPIM: tracks and waypoints

GeoPIM is a Personal Information Manager for geographical data like tracks and waypoints. It lets you organize, edit and process such data in collections, exchange them with your friends, view them on the map, gather useful statistics and so on.

Virtual adventures

MapSphere Online Services are created to support the MapSphere user community. You can observe other users moving on the earth globe in real time, communicate with your old friends and find new ones, walk together (virtually!) and discover the world, participate in the search of treasures hidden in the most interesting corners of our planet and try to get them.
