ViewRanger : UK Peak District Edition includes ViewRanger software and map data for UK Peak District and surrounding area.
Unlike a static map, ViewRanger provides a 3D panoramic view of your location - where all the main landscape features are identified and 'tagged'. Hills are named, woodlands and lakes identified, and villages, towns and prominent landmarks are shown.
ViewRanger is ideal for tourists, walkers, cyclists, mountain bikers, river boaters - in fact anyone who enjoys the outdoors. Next time you are out and wonder "Which hill is that over there?" or "What town is that on the horizon?" then ViewRanger can provide the answer.
It's simple to use and doesn't require any mapreading skills - making ViewRanger great for the occasional tourist as well as the regular outdoors activity enthusiast.
Features
How does it work?
ViewRanger uses your actual location (calculated through GPS - the same technology used in automotive satellite navigation) and licensed data from the Ordnance Survey to calculate an accurate three dimensional panorama view of the ground terrain surrounding your location. ViewRanger then creates ViewTags on this panorama to indicate the main points-of-interest in your field of view.
These ViewTags enable you to identify thousands of features within your horizon, including hills, towns and woodland.
You can add photographs and comments (including URL links) to any point-of-interest, sharing information with friends, colleagues and other ViewRanger users. This makes ViewRanger great for holiday photos, recording sightings of flora or wildlife, and for sharing information on your favourite places.
MapPaks - Map Data on Your Handset
ViewRanger uses its visual landscape database to provide full terrain and point-of-interest coverage of geographic regions. Currently, we are releasing map data for regions of the UK. Most map data is held locally on the mobile phone handset so that ViewRanger can be used in remote locations where no mobile network signal may be available. However, when a mobile network internet connection is available then the user can access additional information on points-of-interest such as photos, comments and related websites held on the ViewRanger central server.
This edition of ViewRanger comes bundled with the UK Peak District MapPak. Other MapPaks are available at www.viewranger.com
