1. An Extensive Library of Usable Maps

Available maps (over 100 types, including combined formats)

Includes proprietary super topographic data, Geospatial Information Authority maps, hazard maps, and more.

*For aerial photography (sorted by era), coverage may vary by time period. "Latest" and "circa 1974" eras offer relatively broad coverage.

*Super terrain data maps are free to use for 5 days following app installation.

2. Cross-Section and Viewshed Creation

Easily generate a cross-sectional profile from any point on the map.

Includes the proven visibility analysis function from Kashmir 3D. Calculations account for the Earth's curvature and atmospheric refraction.

Ideal for route planning while hiking, determining radio wave visibility, and terrain analysis.

Where PLATEAU 3D city model data is available, create cross-sectional views that include buildings.

3. Elevation Palette Function

Customize the map background color using the elevation palette. Apply your preferred gradient in precise 1cm increments.

4. Panoramic View

Display a panoramic observation map from any location to identify surrounding mountain names. A 360° panorama synchronized with your smartphone's compass. Exceptionally powerful for mountain identification.

Display the sun and moon (including lunar phase). Useful for planning Diamond Fuji or Pearl Fuji viewings.

View the location of logged GPS points.

Can also generate panoramic views for international mountains.

5. GPS Functionality

Obtain location data using your smartphone's GPS and record your tracks.

Employs high-precision positioning suitable for serious mountaineering and outdoor use.

Graphically review recorded tracks with parameters like elevation change, speed, time, and elapsed time.

The point alert function notifies you via voice and sound when approaching a preset point.

Display photos linked to specific points.

Send the current map center position to NaviCon.

6. GPS Track Summary Playback

This feature allows for the consolidated playback of recorded track logs.

It compares timestamps from photos in your smartphone gallery and automatically displays matched images.

7. GPS Navigation Function

Features Track Navi, allowing navigation along a pre-set track using your smartphone's GPS.

An alert sounds if you deviate from the track.

This significantly reduces the risk of getting lost while hiking.

Additionally, supports route navigation for urban walking and point-to-point navigation.

8. GPS Data Editing Function

Handles GPS-related point, route, and track data.

Organize data into folders with a clear, tree-structured view.

Create tracks directly by drawing on the map.

Import and export data in GPX format from hiking websites and other sources.

9. Offline Map Usage

Access maps even in remote areas with no cellular signal, such as when mountain climbing.

The bulk download function ensures all scale maps for a specified area are downloaded at once.

Monitor download progress clearly. Avoids ending up without a needed map on-site.

Also includes a map caching function.

10. Map History Function

Remembers previously viewed areas, allowing you to easily return to a prior location.

11. Custom Map Compatibility

Import and use custom maps prepared with the Kashmir 3D map cutter.

When using the map cutter, tile each image into segments of approximately 256 x 256 pixels.

Send the created KMZ file to Super Terrain via email or a cloud drive.

12. GeoJSON Compatibility

Read, display, and edit points, lines, and polygons from GeoJSON files.

Draw new shapes directly.

13. Print / PDF Output

Print any map area at a specified scale or export it as a PDF.

14. Integration with Other Apps

Exchange GPS data using GPX, KML, and GDB formats.

Enables data sharing with other apps, the PC software "Kashmir 3D," and trajectory data from hiking sites.

15. Backup Function

Back up all app data (excluding cached maps) and remove it from the smartphone.

Backups allow data restoration even if you delete the app or your smartphone malfunctions.

Also features automatic backup to Google Drive. Maintains up-to-date backups effortlessly.

Please consult the manual for detailed instructions.

On some smartphones, track recording may be interrupted or fail. This is due to power-saving features that force-close background apps, which cannot be controlled from within the app. This issue also occurs with other applications.

While turning off the screen may allow recording to persist briefly, this is not a permanent solution. Please be aware of this limitation.
