Locus Map is a multi-functional Android navigation app. Primarily it is designed and used for leisure time outdoor activities like hiking, biking, or geocaching. The app is also used by professionals e.g. by S&R teams or for collecting geospatial data.[1]
The app was developed in 2010 by Czech developer Jiří Mlavec, founder of Asamm Software company, based in Prague, Czech Republic. Locus Map development is carried out in cooperation with the community of its users-contributors and as such is partially crowd-sourced.
The application has registered more than 5 000 000 installations and has been reviewed in professional media (e.g. Computer Bild.[2][3][4] or AndroidPIT[5]). It received awards in several app competitions and polls.[6][7]
