RokuGPX is a GPS hiking map app for walking the mountains of Japan. ■ A map made easier to read for hiking Built from Geospatial Information Authority of Japan (GSI) and OpenStreetMap data, adjusted so that trails, boardwalks, bridges, mountain huts, and water sources are easier to tell apart. English labels are available. You can switch between GSI standard maps, aerial photography, satellite imagery, and more. Tap a mountain hut, water source, or campsite on the map to see information about it. ■ Offline maps Choose the area you plan to walk and download it in advance. Downloaded areas can be displayed where there is no signal. There is a limit to how much you can store, and an estimate of the space required is shown before the download starts. ■ GPS recording Record the route you walked and check distance, elevation, and pace. Waypoints can carry photos and notes. ■ Route planning Draw a route on the map and distance, elevation gain, and course time are calculated automatically. Estimated times can be adjusted to your own walking speed. Routes and waypoints can be grouped into a "Trip". ■ Trip reports Gather the routes, GPS recordings, and photos from a walk into a trip report. Keep it to yourself, share it only with people who have the link, or publish it as a public page. You can switch it back to private at any time. ■ Cloud sync Sync your data between iPhone and the web app (app.rokugpx.com). Requires iPhone with iOS 17.6 or later. ――― Source: Geospatial Information Authority of Japan (https://maps.gsi.go.jp/development/ichiran.html) © OpenStreetMap contributors / © OpenTopoMap / © OpenHikingMap Maps: © Mapbox Satellite imagery: © Esri Street-level imagery: © Mapillary contributors (CC BY-SA 4.0) Hiking routes: Waymarked Trails Weather: Open-Meteo Address search: Geospatial Information Authority of Japan
