MAKE A MAP ANYWHERE • Map My Location builds a map of where you're standing in seconds — topo, satellite (US), or worldwide street. MARK IT UP • Drop colored flag waypoints with names, notes, and photos. • Record tracks — keeps logging with your phone locked or in your pocket. • Measure distance and area, or draw lines and polygons. • Copy coordinates; share/export waypoints and tracks as KML/KMZ.
