VIZE

VIZE's primary focus is on helping hobby and professional sailors in navigating in different regions (e.g. Balaton, Adriatic Sea, etc.). The app provides detailed information about the environment, wind and temperature maps. Moreover we can see ports and other active boats in the region. Selecting ports opens a window, where we can find information about the port and ads about local restaurants. There is also the possibility to start navigation between our current location and the selected marker on the map.
Background location data is a crucial part of the provided user experience as it is used for regional wind speed estimations and the calculation of optimal routes during navigation.
