OCAD for Android

App synopsis

OCAD App for Android is a compact mapping companion built to extend the capabilities of its desktop program. It’s aimed at outdoor map creation and editing, making it simple to work on cartography tasks while away from the computer.

Typical use cases

• Creating new map projects directly on your phone.
• Editing and refining existing maps while in the field.
• Collecting on-site feedback for course layouts and route planning.

Tools focused on speed and comfort

• Intuitive sketching and fast mapping tools designed for comfortable, ergonomic use.
• GPS route recording so you capture accurate tracks as you move.
• A built-in compass to help keep map orientation correct during fieldwork.
• Interface elements tailored to both professional mappers and recreational users.

How it links with the desktop app

Work flows smoothly between devices: projects started or modified on the phone can be moved back to the desktop application, and desktop updates are easily loaded into the mobile project. This two-way synchronization keeps edits consistent across platforms and reduces manual transfer steps.
