The Project
MapRun is developed by a keen orienteer in Brisbane Australia through FNE Enterprises.
The initial App development was made possible by a grant from the Australian Sports Foundation (ASF).
The ASF Giving4Grassroots™ (G4G™) fund is a national small grants program that funds initiatives and programs aimed at increasing participation in grassroots and community sport throughout Australia.
Further funding has been provided from Orienteering Victoria and the Australian Sports Commission via grants to Orienteering Australia.
The App
The MapRun App is a specific variant of the MyOMaps App (see below) for iPhone and Android, tailored for ease of use by participants in organised events. It is available free from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
The MyOMaps App was initially developed for Android, based on the Google MyTracks App. MyOMaps has a wide range of functions for mapping, course planning, placing controls and competing in events . The full version is available as a paid App on the Google Play Store.
The recommended App to use for general users is MapRun.
For more information on the MyOMaps App see the MyOMaps Website.
