The Federal Forestry Office in Germany is tackling the challenges of forest management, military land use, and climate change with the help of digital tools. In this article, Andrew Haux explores how foresters are using Avenza Maps Pro to navigate vast training grounds, record data in the field, and manage critical conservation tasks—even without internet access.
Avenza Maps Web is a new platform designed for fast, secure, and seamless map sharing across teams. Upload maps, skip the delays, and deliver them instantly to your staff’s mobile devices with full control and privacy, all in one place.
When it comes to working in remote areas, accuracy and reliability are everything. That’s why professionals in environmental science, utilities, emergency response, forestry, and field engineering rely on Avenza Maps to navigate, collect, and manage data without needing cell service. But while mobile devices make fieldwork easier, their built-in GPS often lacks the accuracy needed for detailed mapping and data collection. That’s where pairing Avenza Maps with a Bad Elf GPS receiver makes a difference.
In today’s fast-moving enterprise environment, managing and distributing geospatial data efficiently is crucial for field operations. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Avenza Maps Web, a platform built to simplify how organizations handle mapping content. With the ability to upload custom maps, organize data, and share it seamlessly with field teams, Avenza Maps Web ensures that vital information is always accessible, helping you stay organized and focused on the task at hand.
We’re excited to announce the launch of our Custom Symbology feature! This new tool empowers you to upload and manage your own symbols for a more personalized mapping experience with Avenza Maps. Custom symbology enhances your ability to tell your story through your maps, allowing you to mark key landmarks, plot routes, and highlight points of interest with symbols that reflect your unique vision.
