Maasverhalen
Read full descriptionHide full description
In deze app vind je wandel- en fietsroutes langs de Maas. In de loop der tijd zullen er meer routes bijkomen, want we zijn nog volop aan het ontwikkelen. Sommige locaties langs de route zijn verrijkt met een zogenaamde Augmented Reality belevingen. βScanβ met je telefoon (wanneer dat gevraagd wordt) de grond en er verschijnt een animatie. Het is een echte driedimensionale animatie dus je kunt er naartoe en zelfs omheen wandelen. Op verschillende plekken zijn leuke animaties in de belevingen geplaatst. Kijk dus goed rond :-) Deze app is een initiatief van het Waterschap, Aa en Maas.
