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. From geotagging photos and dropping waypoints to tracking movement and adding notes directly on the map, the Avenza Maps app provides the offline functionality and flexibility needed for real-world fieldwork.

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. With Bad Elf’s high-accuracy GNSS technology, users can take their field mapping workflows to the next level with ease of use, and achieve survey-grade precision when operating in areas with cell coverage.

Smartphones and tablets are convenient, but their built-in GPS can fall short for high-accuracy work. That’s where Bad Elf comes in.
