A simple app to create and manage georeferenced notes (text and photos) on a map. The goal is to create the notes very fast and without any unnecessary interaction overhead. The typical use-case is to collect geospatial data which can be later uploaded to OpenStreetMap.Currently the basic features are:
- Create, move and delete notes on a map
- Attach photos to a note
- Categorize notes
- List of all notes
- Show and follow current location
- Export all notes in GeoJSON or GPX format
- Hozzon létre és állítson vissza teljes biztonsági másolatot
WhatsNew:
1.8.0:
Changes:
* Migration from osmdroid to MapLibre
* Removal of zoom buttons (zoom by pinching-gesture or by tapping twice and moving finger up/down)
* Save exports as normal files, i.e. via file-chooser instead of share-dialog
Hint: This app is available in both, F-Droid Main and IzzyOnDroid repos. For details on this, please see here.
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
