ArkenMap

iOS Universel / Navigation

ArkenMap turns georeferenced PDF maps into something you can use outside: open the sheet full screen and see where you are on the map when you allow location access.

What you can do

Import PDF maps from Files or share sheets and keep them in a simple library on your device.
Pan and zoom the PDF with familiar gestures.
Show your position on the map when Location is enabled (while you’re using the app).
Works with PDFs that include georeference / measure information (for example GeoPDF-style GPTS/LPTS metadata).
Designed for real maps
ArkenMap is built for georeferenced PDFs—trail maps, forestry or resource maps, planning PDFs, and other cartography exported with embedded coordinates.

Privacy-minded
Imported PDFs and your library are stored locally on your iPhone or iPad. The app is focused on on-device viewing and positioning, not on uploading your maps to our servers.

Notes:
Accuracy depends on your PDF georeferencing, device GPS, and coordinate system handling in the app. Some datum and projection differences can cause small shifts compared to survey-grade tools.

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?

• New topo map coverage across southern Canada, including the BC Southern Interior — tap "Use my location" to find your sheet.
• Calibrate a scanned map by tapping its printed grid corners, for accurate positioning.
• Older maps (NAD27) now line up correctly, with a warning when a map's coordinate system isn't recognized.
• Track recording survives the app closing and resumes automatically — no more lost trips.
• Cleaner lock-screen recording view with a live timer, distance, and point count.
• Copy a pin from one map to another.
• A location icon now marks which maps cover where you are, right in the list.

Plus stability and reliability improvements.
