Kartasto is map browser that talks directly with map APIs. You can connect to Tile Map, WMTS and WMS services and browse their contents.
The app is preconfigured with tens of maps from open APIs, including topographic, satellite imagery and nautical maps from different providers.
Draw new layers using mouse and share the drawings as GeoDrawing files with other. Add layers on the base map and configure new layers from tile or WFS sources. Shapefile and GeoJSON files can also be imported as layers.
Measure distances and calculate areas enclosed by multiple map points. Create tracks that follow roads between coordinates.
The map widget shows a map around your current position and updates in the background.
Kartasto also works wonderfully on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Future versions will add more exciting features.

This app has been built by one developer as a hobby project during many evenings and weekends. Please be nice and take this into account when giving feedback.
