1 | This web app is mainly targeted at mobile devices and intended for people |
2 | finding their way around as well as documenting travels. | |
3 | ||
4 | Maps are being displayed in default "Mapnik" OpenStreetMap style by default, | |
5 | but other styles like Cycle Map or Transport Map are available. | |
6 | ||
7 | The second feature is "tracking" of locations, meaning the ability to display | |
8 | your location and record a track of your movements for documentation. | |
9 | This track (most useful if you have a GPS receiver in or connected to your | |
10 | device) can be saved in GPX format. You can use those saved files with many | |
11 | applications to display them and show others where you have been or e.g. edit | |
12 | OpenStreetMap on the basis of that recorded information. | |
13 | ||
14 | Note that Lantea Maps does not send any location data to anyone else, it's | |
15 | recorded locally on your device only. | |
16 | ||
17 | The app name "Lantea" is based on a fictional mostly-ocean planet in the | |
18 | "Stargate: Atlantis" TV series, on which the Ancients erected the artificial | |
19 | "island" city of Atlantis. | |

27 | The main repo is http://git-public.kairo.at/?p=lantea.git;a=summary but it's | |
28 | listed on GitHub at https://github.com/KaiRo-at/lantea for convenience for | |
4cb5d06e | 29 | potential contributors. See the TODO for tasks that you can help with. |
