Description
We present an electronic version of the printed map “Moscow-Crimea: new road to the sea”. The edition is realized in the unique cartographic style of the company AGT Geocenter—the style that was acknowledged as one of the best in the world.This map will help car drivers traveling the route from Moscow to Crimea, as well as those traveling to Sochi (the edition features a part of the route from Krasnodar to Sochi). The app also features another route leading to Crimea—the one that goes through the territory of the Ukraine. The edition features detailed maps of the roads and their surrounding territories.
The map shows all kilometer posts, which are placed along the highways—they will always help to understand where you are. Objects which can be of use are also presented: petrol stations, traffic posts, car service stations, parking sites, shops, cafes, drugstores, motels, etc. Sights are also shown, their descriptions are presented.
The edition also features additional maps: Crimea, Moscow, Sochi, Adler, Krasnaya Polyana.
Other useful information is presented in the app: toll roads, Crimea-Caucasus ferry, vehicle region codes, etc.
Printed editions have something magical, something that does not exist in their electronic equivalents. They were created by living people, who labored over each centimeter of the map, they were not created by robots. We decided to combine these achievements of the print editions with the new possibilities of contemporary electronic platforms.
Our app is not intended as a replacement for GPS navigators, Apple Maps, GoogleMaps, YandexMaps, etc. This is why you can transit from any map section to a corresponding section of a service of your choosing (Apple Maps, Gоogle Maps, YandexMaps) and back again.
Highlights of the app:
1. You can work offline.
2. You can navigate your way to any desired map section through the traditional index map or simply by turning pages.
3. You have the ability to magnify individual parts of a map, conduct search by inhabited places, railway stations, rivers, etc., and bookmark interesting pages.
4. You have the ability to add your own information to the map (comments, addresses, telephone numbers – including the ability to dial directly from within the app).
5. When online, you can transit from any map section to a corresponding section of a service of your choosing (Apple Maps, Gоogle Maps, YandexMaps) and back again.
The advantages of the electronic version of the map:
- It does not bend, tear or become lost at the most inopportune moment.
- The ease with which you can search, magnify and examine details, add notes and additional information – utilizing the power and features of today’s devices.
The quality and art of traditional paper maps is being replaced by much less attractive automated digital maps. Our app brings these excellent paper maps into the mobile age, helping to ensure they continue to provide you with both knowledge and enjoyment – it would be a tragedy if they were relegated only to libraries, inaccessible to most people. We want to give a second life to paper maps. This app is for people who love good old printed maps and want to go with the times.
