  6. 100 years of swisstopo Flight Service: In 1926, #swisstopo pioneered #aerialPhotogrammetry in Switzerland, taking to the skies when aviation was still in its infancy to map the country more precisely and efficiently than ground surveys could. A century later, the #FlightService remains...

  8. @runspired.com Use case: People send me planned route on Strava. I want to check hour by hour weather en route (#Komoot), I want to check current snow levels (#MeteoSchweiz), I want to check avalanche risk (#WhiteRisk), I want to check trail closures (#SwissTopo), I want to have it on a phone in an app that has actually useable maps (#Locus).

    None of those use-cases can be fulfilled by Strava.

    For each of them I need a GPX.

  10. Just noticed that the surroundings of Blatten has been newly measured and published. Most of the hiking trails in the valley have been opened as well. The satellite view still shows the situation from before the disaster.

  28. Das Wandern ist des Schweizers Lust: "Mont" ist eine #AugmentedReality-#Webapp, die Schweizer Berggipfel und Hügelkuppen benennt und auf dem Handybildschirm anzeigt (iOS only).

    Endlich ist nun auch mein Paper über die verwendete Technik erschienen:

    phaidra.fhstp.ac.at/detail/o:7

    Für alle, die hoch hinaus wollen - mit #VanillaJS oder in Wanderschuhen.

  30. Was genau will mir die #Swisstopo App sagen?

    Ich bin 21.6 km in 7h55m, dabei 862 m rauf und 1144 m runter gegangen?

    … oder…

    ich bin 21.6 km in 7h55m, dabei 935 m rauf und 1188 m runter gegangen?

    Was denn nun? 🤔

    Und was bedeuten die 🕓 06:38 oben rechts? Es kann weder Start noch Stop Zeitpunkt sein. Also netto Laufdauer, ohne Pause? Das könnte passen, weil kurz vor Ende der Tour eine grössere Pause stattfand.

    Ich finde die Anzeige irreführend. Wer weiss Rat?
