Pure Maps is a full-featured map and navigation application allowing you to explore maps, search for addresses and points of interest, as well as assist with navigation. For that, it uses online or offline service providers.

Offline maps, search and routing is possible with OSM Scout Server. Pure Maps will list OSM Scout Server among the providers if you have it installed. For it work, you'll also need to have the server running and map data on your device. See the OSM Scout Server documentation for installation instructions and follow setup instructions for Poor Maps.

Note: Online maps users are requested to register their own Mapbox GL key and enter it through the preferences of the application. This will allow us to use default key for application testing and provide the service without hitting free tier limits. Reasoning behind the requst is explained at TMO post, see follow up messages on TMO pages for users feedback and small details on how to enable and test the personal key. Note that without significant number of users moving to the personal keys, Mapbox key will be revoked and the users of Mapbox tiles will not be able to access it.

As of 23 Jan 2019, the public Mapbox access key has been revoked. Users are welcome to register their private key in the application.

Requirements:

  • Mapbox GL Native QML component for map display and interaction, should be installed as a dependency automatically.
  • Voice navigation requires that you manually install a text-to-speech (TTS) engine – Mimic, Flite, PicoTTS and Espeak are supported. Their quality is about in that order, with Mimic and PicoTTS available from this repository. See corresponding TTS engines for language covereage.

Pure Maps is a fork of WhoGo Maps and continues its legacy. Reasons for forking described at corresponding post.

OK, so, you would like to load your GPX track into Pure Maps and follow it. That could be done relatively simply and with some processing, if you have OSM Scout Server installed and configured on your device.

With the markers, do you also want to load them from PC or we are talking about adding them in Pure Maps on device, as a POI?

Both options are on my wish list. Sometimes I make a list of coordinates of objects and I want to add the markers to the map, sometimes I make a GPX route along them, also I may discover something and I'd like to add a POI to the map.

I have added https://github.com/rinigus/pure-maps/issues/29 for navigation support by given GPX file. As for making POIs on the device, I am working on that already.

This is a super app for hiking now! On my current wish list: Altitude info (curves on maps), better differenciation between paths and small roads, faster direction arrow, a bit more info on the app tile (maybe a mini map?), a bit more contrast on the main map.

Pure maps now can replace OsMand. It's quicker and the interface is very nice, followMe mode too. Applause!

Looks like someone used MapQuest keys provided with this application and wiped out monthly service quota. For now, for online routing, please use Stadia Maps instead

Pdelfes, this is absolutely no trash. It is a fork due to the fact that original creator of poor maps wont have enough spare time for a while. Rinigus decided to fork and go on with app development. If you want more info go to talk.maemo.org .

Clone an open git, compile the app with a new icon and name and ta-da! We have a new Sailfish OS app, this OS is all about it, recycle trash to have more trash! :D

You are really wrong. Rinigus is making one of the best navigation systems on a mobile. I only use OSM Scout Server - Pure Maps (now) 'no tracking' combo in my trips around the world and never lost. He deserves our acknowledgement for bringing us this piece of gold to SailfishOS.

Instead of CAPTCHAs there should be IQ tests before commenting...

Or just a shadow ban for pdelfes, a quick internet search should make clear to anyone, that he exhibits a pattern of shitty behavior, and by that I mean being a giant asshole.

Nice to see progress again. Thanks rinigus for forking. And of course still thanks to otsaloma for all your work so far and allowing the fork.
