Stop Map is a visual guide to public transportation in the capital of Finland and its surroundings. It gives you a complete picture of the transit system right in your fingertips. It puts every one of the region's 8,000 stops and stations on a map and tells you which buses, trams, and trains go from each stop, and when they are scheduled to do it. Stops and lines can be discovered either by browsing the map, by looking them up on a list of all visible stops, or by using a simple search. You can (and you should!) also add your frequently used stops as bookmarks, which you can then rapidly view whenever you need to. -- Stop Map on pysäkkikartta: visuaalinen lähestymistapa joukkoliikennetiedon hankkimiseen. Se antaa kokonaiskuvan pääkaupunkiseudun joukkoliikenteestä sekä ajantasaiset aikataulutiedot jokaiselle alueen noin 8 000 pysäkille. Stop Map sopii nautittavaksi paitsi sellaisenaan myös yhdessä Reittioppaan kanssa, etenkin silloin, kun kaikki ei mene aivan suunnitelmien mukaan ja tarvitaan joustavampaa näkökulmaa ympäröivään joukkoliikennetarjontaan. Omimmillaan se lienee kuitenkin kokeneelle matkalaiselle, joka tietää valmiiksi, mitä linjoja käyttää – Stop Map kertoo muun tarvittavan. Pysäkkejä voi selata vapaasti kartalla, kuten myös näkyvän kartan pysäkeistä järjestetyllä listalla, sekä hakea nimen tai linjan perusteella. Usein käytetyt pysäkit kannattaa tallentaa vakiopysäkeiksi, jotka löytyvät aina nopeasti omasta valikostaan. Kaikille pysäkeille näytetään myös keskimääräinen liikenteen suunta, joten oikeansuuntaisen pysäkin valitseminen on helppoa. Stop Map osaa tällä hetkellä suomea ja englantia. Pysäkit ovat ohjelman muistissa valmiiksi, aikataulujen – ja luonnollisesti karttamateriaalin – hakemiseen tarvitaan kuitenkin Internet-yhteys.
