    Hi HN! This is a trail companion web app (think AllTrails) I hacked together in a couple weeks time. I was inspired to create this project while training for an extended backpacking trip. My motivation was to create a UI tailored exactly to my liking, and to be able to track my progress along the trail without draining my battery. I also wanted to experiment with PWA technologies. I successfully used it on my five day adventure along the Knobstone Trail in southern Indiana, and even though it's web-based it hardly consumed any battery life on my old first-gen Pixel XL. It's set up currently…

    Hey guys, I built a route planner that is mostly focused on bike touring and using existing bike infrastructure. For each request you're shown what bike tracks/trails your route uses and can further explore them by showing them on map or going to the official trail route. The main idea for the app is to have a friendly and easy to use planner that would make heavy use of official bike trails data (mainly from OpenStreetMap) and make it easy to plan a longer trip using the best possible bike routes out there. Currently the app only works for the Euro region but I'm planning to add North…

    I'm working on a GPS track visualizer for quite some time. It shines in hilly and mountaineous terrain (where a 3D view makes more sense), but it also offers quite a lot of Strava-like features (statistics etc.). You can upload your GPX and FIT files manually, or sync directly with Garmin, Coros and Polar. See https://cubetrek.com for the live app and check out some examples there. It's free and opens source. Also, anyone who likes to work with 3D visualizations (especially Babylon.js), let me know if you like to help polish this thing further.

    Initially built Google Maps to GPX functionality as could not find a decent option at that moment. Later developed more tools for GPX processing - merge, split, strip, trim, etc. Also GPX route planner to create GPX files from scratch. The goal was to keep everything straight to the point: no registration, no payment, just tools that work and easy to use.

    Ambulate was created because planning hiking trips using spreadsheets and various map solutions got chaotic. I wanted an app to manage and map multi day trip itineraries in the outdoors/backcountry. Features - Manage itineraries - Add activities and map markers - Add routes (upload GPX or plot by hand on map) - Desktop and mobile It is free to try (login using Google or create a user). Alternatively the slides on the home page give an idea of the UI. I'll appreciate any thoughts and feedback you care to share:)

    Hi HN, I’m a high school student in Seattle who loves riding hills. I found that route makers like Google Maps get you from point A to B on a bike, but they don’t give you fun routes. So i made my own RouteScout lets you: - Control the surfaces (never gravel or dirt with a road bike!) on the route - Indicate your preference for hills (I LOVE or HATE hills gives you different routes) - Prefer routes with bike lanes and cycling paths and roads made for bikes. - Filter types of roads (big roads gone!) - And when looping around it won’t take you back on the same exact road on the way back…
