Flyover Country is a National Science Foundation funded offline mobile app for geoscience outreach and data discovery. The app exposes interactive geologic maps from Macrostrat.org, fossil localities from Neotomadb.org and Paleobiodb.org, Wikipedia articles, offline base maps, and the user’s current GPS determined location, altitude, speed, and heading. The app analyzes a given flight path and caches relevant map data and points of interest (POI), and displays these data during the flight, without in flight wifi. By downloading only the data relevant to a particular flightpath, cache sizes remain reasonable, allowing for a robust experience without an internet connection.

Flyover Country is not limited to the window seat of airplanes. It is also ideal for road trips, hiking, and other outdoor activities such as field trips and geologic field work.

Doesnt allow path saving to IPAD

there s a bug on Ipad Mini 6, does not allow to create or save paths on ipad. Fails with Error “Requests failed,, please check internet connection”

Doesn’t work at all

Every time I try to create path it says it failed because I’m not connected to the internet. I have full bars plus wifi available. And yes I tried to break the path into tiny pieces too. Nothing works. Very disappointing. Would love if it worked
