Our app is a one-stop shop for all your mountain adventures: hiking, skiing, climbing, mountain biking, and more. But PeakVisor is more than just another outdoors app; it’s an immersion into a carefully crafted 3D world that will give you an unprecedented understanding of the nuances of a mountain’s terrain. “PeakVisor uses your iPhone’s camera and augmented reality (AR) technology to display names and elevations of nearby peaks. The information will appear on your phone like magic.” - App Store, Take the Trail Less Traveled Here’s a brief orientation on the tools we offer to get oriented in the mountains: ● 3D Maps As human athletic achievement progresses in the mountains, so does the technology to assist your adventures. With PeakVisor, you unlock the topo maps of the future; our cutting-edge technology with high-precision terrain modeling offers deep insight into the mountain landscape of your choice. With one glance, you be blessed with years of knowledge about an area’s terrain. ● Identify Peaks Identify more than a million mountains, hills, buttes, spires, and more from all over the world, with a detailed profile for each of them! Our app shows you altitude, topographic prominence, mountain range, national parks or reserves, as well as photos and additional Wikipedia articles. ● Plan Hiking Routes A vast network of worldwide hiking trails and walking pathways included in PeakVisor’s 3D Maps will help you compose a hiking route which includes evaluating the distance you can expect to hike as well as a route’s elevation profile and estimated time for completion. ● Skiing In winter mountain sports, PeakVisor’s topographic 3D Maps allow a visual understanding of the terrain and provide detailed information about mountain lifts, ski resort trails, and backcountry ski touring routes. The app also offers features such as winter mode and a slope steepness overlay to identify avalanche terrain on your route. ● Cable Cars and Mountain Huts are inlaid onto our 3D Maps, complete with schedules. This is especially useful in Europe, where many objectives involve a cable car ride to gain some altitude, lest you want to do some genuinely punishing climbs. And you haven’t experienced the old-world mountain culture until you’ve had a memorable meal and night at a rustic mountain hut in the high country. ● Peak Bagging The app offers monthly climbing challenges and Peak Bagging competitions to keep the motivation where it needs to be…UP. ● Animated Flyover Videos You can even initiate a ‘Flyover,’ our visually stunning animations that give you a token video of your route to show family and friends or inspire some memories down the road. ● GPS Tracking Track any outdoor adventures, whether hiking, skiing, mountain biking, etc. Post-adventure, you can visualize your route in the miniature 3D world, check out stats like distance and elevation gain, and export a GPX file of your new route. ● Lock-Screen Navigation ● All Features Work Offline PeakVisor is the Swiss army knife for outdoor adventure, one that you will soon find indispensable while in the mountains.
