Trail Hiking and Navigation App

trailhiking.com.au is a website for hikers. It helps them select trails according to their hiking preferences. The information they offer covers trail descriptions, key features, photos, maps, GPX files, elevation profiles and more. So far they’re covering more than 160 hikes all over Victoria. They want to improve this existing website by developing a mobile trail hiking app. The app will be an interactive guide to trails including photos, trail notes, and GPX files, synchronisation with www.trailhiking.com.au, view topographic maps, add geotagged photos, plan routes and trips, stats tracking, location based weather updates, compass for navigation, push notifications and deployment via iOS, Android and web app.Read more here.
