Support Team Partners
ViewRanger
- ViewRanger is a unique immersive-mapping tool for smartphones that provides information
about your immediate surroundings through a natural and intuitive display. This is the
only tool we use for GPS/digital mapping and we'd like to thank Craig and Mike at ViewRanger
for becoming support team partners with us.
We're really looking forward to working with the product and
the ViewRanger team to improve both our rides and this fantastic product through mutually
beneficial feedback and application review processes and also product beta testing.
Using ViewRanger, friends and family of our riders will be able to track our teams
live during the events we run! We'll also, as ride guides, be able to locate other
ride guides / groups on our mobile devices so that we can effectively route ourselves
to them when groups are split. The software also records all of the route details
as we ride (distance, average speed, max speed, min speed, elevation information
and so-on) so that we can review this at the end of each day and plan the following
day's accordingly.
We're currently in discussions with the ViewRanger team to see if we can offer the
product with pre-loaded maps for our events to CharityAdventure.org.uk riders. Commission
from these sales would go towards the charities we're riding for. You would, of
course, be able to buy the full ViewRanger product for your mobile device through
us including a variety of maps (full UK, North of the UK, South of the UK, etc)
- again with any commission going to a charity of our choice. For more details about
this offer, our our experiences to date with the software please
contact us.
