Title: TopoMap3D - maps for hikers (France)
Post by: atreyu64 on January 16, 2014, 05:36:05 pm
Hi there,

Here is a little project which is still under construction but will very soon become more official.
The goal is to make an interactive version of already existing mountain hiking maps (on paper), for both PC and Android.
Hiking pathes are represented by polylines, and places by billboard planes.

Some technical features :

Deployement :

I know there is nothing really technically special or complex, but just in case someone would like to know some details, feel free to ask.

JPCT was the perfect tool for me because I needed a light, simple, permormant and portable 3D framework.
So thanks a lot JPCT community and especially EgonOlsen for the very useful help !


Here is a part of the existing paper version :

And here is how the app looks like basically for now :

This looks and feels really cool, very polished. It reminds me of some years ago, where is was "free" (i.e. no small children...) to go hiking myself... :'(

I'll add it to the projects page once the Android version is out, if you don't mind.
