Discover the power of over 100 types of maps, including the renowned Geographical Survey Institute map, designed to enhance your experience from mountain climbing to leisurely strolls around town. This versatile app, which received the prestigious 2018 Japan Cartographic Society Award for Best Work, leverages "super terrain data" to emphasize terrain details using unique technology. Users can access a wide range of maps from the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan, including topographic, geological, old, past and present, and prewar topographic maps (Ordnance Survey Department).

Enhance your outdoor adventures with the app's robust GPS functionality, which allows you to record tracks (trajectories) and supports GPX log input/output and editing. Whether you're navigating urban landscapes or scaling mountain peaks, the app offers comprehensive support with features like GPS navigation (with audio), data recording, and editing. Additionally, the visibility determination function aids in creating cross-sectional diagrams, observation, and radio communication, with the capability to display buildings.

Experience the 360° panoramic view function, which includes a mountain identification feature to help you recognize mountain names. You can also view the sun, moon, and GPS points. The app's GPS function, bulk map download, and map cache capabilities ensure a seamless offline experience, perfect for areas without radio signals. You can associate photos with specific points, display contour lines generated from elevation data, and show MGRS grid (UTM grid).

Further enhance your mapping experience with the ability to read, display, and edit GIS data from GeoJSON files, draw shapes, and use the app overseas. Map printing and PDF output are available, and the app supports a dark theme for comfortable viewing.

A Wealth of Maps at Your Fingertips

Explore over 100 types of maps, including combinations of our own super topographic data, maps from the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan, and hazard maps. Note that aerial photographs may not be available in all locations depending on the age group, with "Latest" and "around 1974" offering relatively wide coverage. Enjoy a free 5-day trial of maps using super terrain data after installing the app.

Creating Cross Sections and Outlooks

Effortlessly draw cross sections through any point on the map and utilize the visibility judgment function, familiar from Kashmir 3D, which accounts for Earth's curvature and atmospheric differences. This feature is invaluable for route planning during climbs, assessing wireless visibility, and understanding terrain. Where PLATEAU building data is available, you can create cross-sectional views that include buildings.

Elevation Palette Function

Customize your map experience with the elevation palette function, allowing you to change the map background color in 1cm increments to your preferred gradation.

Panoramic View

Enjoy panoramic observation maps that display mountain names from any location on the map. The 360-degree panorama links with your smartphone's compass, aiding in mountain identification. You can also view the sun and moon, including moon phases, which is perfect for spotting Diamond Fuji and Pearl Fuji. Additionally, you can see GPS points and draw panoramic views of mountains overseas.

GPS Function

Utilize your smartphone's GPS to obtain location information and record tracks with high-precision position measurement suitable for serious mountain climbing and outdoor activities. Display recorded tracks graphically with parameters like elevation gain, speed, time, and elapsed time. The point alarm function alerts you with voice and alarm sounds when approaching a designated point. You can also display photos linked to specific points and send the map center position to NaviCon.

GPS Track Summary Playback

Replay track logs all at once with the GPS track summary playback function. It automatically displays photos stored on your smartphone that match the shooting times of the tracks, with icons indicating photo locations that can be viewed by tapping.

GPS Navigation Function

Navigate along preset tracks using the Track Navi function, which alerts you with voice or alarm if you deviate from the track, ensuring you stay on course during climbs. The app also supports route navigation for urban walks and point navigation for targeting specific locations.

GPS Data Editing Function

Manage GPS-related point, route, and track data with folder organization displayed in an easy-to-read tree format. Create tracks directly on the map and import/export in GPX format from mountain climbing sites.

Map Usage Outside the Service Area (Offline)

Use maps even in areas without signals, such as during mountain climbing, with the bulk download function that allows you to download all scale maps of a specified plot. The cache function ensures you have maps available when needed.

Map History Function

The app remembers locations you've viewed, allowing you to return to previous spots easily.

Custom Map Compatibility

Import and use custom maps cut out with Kashmir 3D's map cutter, displaying your own maps and scanned maps. When using the map cutter, divide each image into approximately 256 x 256 images and send the created kmz file to Super Terrain via email or Cloud Drive.

GeoJSON Compatibility

Display and edit points, linestrings, and polygons from GeoJSON format files, and draw new shapes.

Print/PDF Output

Print any area of the map at a specified scale or create a PDF.

Cooperation with Other Apps

Input and output GPS data in GPX, KML, and GDB formats, enabling data exchange with other apps, the Kashmir 3D software on your PC, and trajectory data from mountain climbing sites.

Backup Function

Back up all data in the app (excluding cached maps) and remove it from your smartphone. Restore data even if you delete the app or your smartphone malfunctions. An automatic backup feature using Google Drive ensures up-to-date backups. For detailed instructions, please refer to the manual.

About Billing Function

Terms of Use

The copyright holder and developer assume no responsibility for the results of operating this application. When starting GPS for the first time, you will be prompted to allow the use of location information services. Continuous use of the GPS function will drain the battery, so if your device is used for emergency communication, carry a spare battery. An easy-to-understand explanation of the navigation function is available in PDF format at https://www.kashmir3d.com/online/superdemapp/superdem_navi.pdf. Note that some smartphones may interrupt or fail to record tracks due to power-saving functions forcibly closing background apps, a common issue across various apps. Turning off the screen while using Super Terrain may allow recording to persist temporarily, but this is not a fundamental solution.
