MapPlanner : Subscriptions now available!

Published on Dec 16, 2023

We're proud to launch MapPlanner subscriptions, giving you access to even more features with unlimited use!
Subscribing to the Explorer version allows you to :

  • Explore and create your own unlimited routes!
  • Choose from a range of mapping styles: display elevation changes, terrain shadows, etc.

  • Benefit from maps adapted to each of your activities: paths, parking lots, orientation points, contour lines, water points, etc.
  • Select the type of route to follow automatically according to your activity: running, hiking, cycling, mountain biking and road biking.
  • Import and export your routes (unlimited) in GPX, TCX, KML and FIT from a file or your connected watch, with heart rate display if available.
  • Track your position on the map in real time and calculate distance, elevation gain and estimated time to your finish.
  • Plan your future outings by listing them directly on the map.
  • Enjoy fast access from the home page on your smartphone (like a PWA application).

 

At the same time, the site continues to evolve:

  • Improved contour lines on the map: calculation of vertical drop every 25m with the most accurate data possible (EU-DEM European mapping system).
  • More precise mountain map style to better differentiate different types of terrain (field, scree, glacier, etc.).
  • Automatic track selection: walking/jogging, hiking, biking and mountain biking.


Last but not least, new features are under development and will soon be available on the site:

  • Reachable distance from a point: do you have 2 hours for your outing? Display on the map all the places accessible from a starting point.
  • Display your route directly on your site: integrate the map with your route directly on your site.
  • 3D view of your route: visualize your route in 3D: walk your route in a relief view. See mountains, valleys and ridges as they really are.
