Quick facts: - Record and manage all geo-objects (e.g. raised hide, game field, stanchion, parking lot). - Filters help to keep the overview - Record and save type, practice details (e.g. viewing direction) and condition of the geo-object - Data can be conveniently shared with all hunting participants (e.g. hunting guests, driven hunt participants) - Screw diwima® geomarkers onto hunting ground equipment and keep data up to date even more easily The diwima® SmartMap supports and supplements the Revier Cockpit. Geodata of the hunting ground (high seats, driven hunt stands, stanchions, etc.) can be recorded at any time and the coordinates can be shared with other hunters via GoogleMaps. The logging of the UVV checks of the raised hide facilities can be documented with the help of the checklists. In addition, stalking routes can be created as lines or game fields, game rest areas, game damage areas, etc. can be created as areas. However, the new filter ensures that the map always remains clear. Map themes, e.g. a driven hunt map including drives, can also be created in diwima® SmartMap. With diwima® SmartMap, all hunting ground information is mapped in one place.
