Love the App, one feature that wpuld be handy is to be able to say enter a bearing from a waypoint and give a distance. So that you could more easly locate smoke sightings etc. Would this be possible.
Update. OK mostly
Great app. (wrote a wordy review then managed to lose it). Will email directly.
Absolutely fantastic. Used it at many fires as on truck and in group vehical. Makes it so much easier to give good sitreps to Duty Officer
Getting better but difficult to see the total Fire size in hectares 9nce the perimeter is complete
Haven't used in anger, just testing. It wouldn't use the GPS until I manually gave it permission in app info. This happened on two different devices.
Doesn't scale well for incidents involving more than one or two crews. Difficult to share data and impossible to merge updated data between users. Doesn't import existing GIS data. Need to be able to copy maps so you can create an incident map from an existing pre-incident map.
Getting better with each update.Great support. Anyway you can add a key to exported maps?
Awesome, exports maps via Outlook. Any chance of having a GPS camera added?
Without being able to draw lines that represent fire front, dozerlines, completed line it is just a fancy map with no tactical use. Look forward to the updated version.
Would really like to be able to draw lines like ios version seeing the price is the same..
I love it. The range of options available and ease of use is outstanding. One suggestion would be to add a measuring tool for distance / area / possibly hieght.
