Hydra topoguide

Hydra topoguide is a digital field guide for hikers and nature lovers. It includes routes, descriptions and photos for 14 hiking trails on the beautiful island of Hydra.

The application includes a detailed offline map and an extensive introduction on the geography, the nature and the paths of Hydra island, including a large chapter on the island's nature.
The trails list includes easy and moderate hiking trails and long mountain traverses, of a total length of 100 km.
The app also provides a list of useful POIs with a search feature on the map screen.

In the field, the app identifies the nearest adventure, guides you to it and then along it by displaying messages and warnings on every junction or other important location. On each Point of Interest, photos and texts are displayed on the map. If the hiker gets off-trail, the app indicates the shorter way to get back safely.

Also, a navigation feature allows to calculate routes and distances along roads and paths anywhere on the island.

The cartographic company AnaDigit, creator of the application, has issued previously hundreds of detailed hiking maps for Greece (eg. maps of Mt. Olympus, Crete, Zagori, Sifnos, Naxos and other Aegean islands). To build the application and ensure data accuracy, all paths of Hydra island have been revised during Spring 2018.
