Mapant Germany is an automatically generated orienteering map. It can be useful for training purposes or for identifying new terrains to be properly mapped. The project started as Mapant Bayern. Other federal states that provide open LiDAR data are beeing added.
It has been generated using the amazing karttapullautin software and processed through the mapant-nf pipeline.
- Details on how the LIDAR tiles were processed are documented in
processing_pipeline. - The user interface is available in
webapp.
