Freemap for Android


Introduction

OpenTrail is an OSM-based Android app for UK hiking/walking. It is closely associated with the UK walkers' OSM site, Freemap. It shows OSM maps using the VTM library.

Note that the source is available via Gitlab at https://gitlab.com/nickw1/opentrail

Current Feature List

Feb 2013

  • show mapsforge generated maps with OSM data (showing rights of way) and OS LandForm PANORAMA contours
  • display annotations as an alert box when you reach their location, useful for instance for displaying path directions at ambiguous places
  • find nearby Freemap walking routes, show them on the map, and "play" the route (instructions will automatically appear on your phone)
  • import data from, and export to, GPX
  • find nearby POIs

Platforms

Android 2.1+. Good performance on an SIII, rather too slow on an HTC Hero so I suspect a typical minimum requirement would be one of the 2.2/2.3 generation of phones released just after the Hero.
