Article Comment: ExplorOz Traveller App

Just confirming, as per "What maps are available?', no off line satellite imagery is available, e.g. esri aerial? Any likelihood of this changing?

I just asked David, but in the short term the answer is no. It could be a possibility somewhere down the track but certainly not likely this year. David says it wouldn't be done before the EOTopo 2017 release.

Thanks for the reply Michelle, I look forward to the possible inclusion then. I'm a bit wedded to sat/AP imagery having used it for a number of years planning field work and determining what site access was like. I was very surprised to find the esri imagery was available on another navigation app and that you could cache an area for offline use, I thought that such imagery was deemed too commercially valuable by suppliers to release this way having had to pay a good number of dollars for it when I needed it for work.

I would also be interested in knowing what format of maps a used on this app and if it was possible to load or convert ecw/ozf maps to work on it.

Hi Maurice,

At this stage you cannot convert or load ecw/ozf maps into the app, there is a good discussion re: the maps used in the app on our Facebook ExplorOz Traveller Community Page that you may want to read.
