NexusLRS is an app that allows users of a road network to view their location on a road network (LRS) as a local municipalities see it. (typically state DOTs) Features include: * Shows your position on the LRS (milepoint/routeid) updated in real time at a frequency of once every second * Works entirely offline after initially download no network capabilities needed (a user is associated with single municipality) * Offline mapping to view your road network from a base map downloaded locally on the phone * Displays straight line diagrams of linear features along a route NexusLRS is designed to be a platform that allows anyone who might need to see a road network as state DOT might see it. Typical users would be people/organizations that deal with DOTs a lot or DOT workers themselves. Access to such data in the field or at all is pretty sparse, this app changes that.
