Description
Experience the detail and quality of Scenic Map as you explore the rich landscapes around the Grand Canyon. Click the ...More link to find out why Scenic Map is a breakthrough in mobile mapping.
Most navigation apps on the iPhone must transfer their maps from servers on the internet. This can be slow in areas with only 2G coverage or completely unavailable in wilderness areas where a map would be most useful. Scenic Map solves this problem by rendering maps directly on your iPhone. This extremely fast high quality software renderer is a first of its kind for mobile devices. It is so fast, it can render every road in a city the size of Los Angeles less than a second.
Scenic Map can store more than 1/3rd of the country in a single app because it uses its own map compression technology. The detail contained in the maps is simply stunning. You can zoom in until small terrain features only a few meters in height can be easily seen. You can zoom out until entire states are visible.
Never before have maps been this customizable. For example, you can turn on or off the roads. You can change the lighting direction or remove terrain shading entirely. You can display contour lines. You can even step through the months and watch the seasons change. Preset buttons make it easy to switch between your favorite map styles.
While most mapping apps hide smaller roads as you zoom out, in Scenic Map, every road is displayed at every zoom level. This can be very helpful when you are exploring an area with few roads. You can zoom out and see all the roads, not just the major highways.
