OpenOrienteering Mapper[0,1] is an orienteering mapmaking program which provides a free alternative to the existing proprietary solution (aka OCAD, which was de-facto standard mapping software for IOF Orienteering Sport since 1990s[5]). Its main advantages compared to it are:
- Open-source: The program is completely free, every programmer can improve it.
- Cross-platform: The program works on Android, Windows, macOS and Linux (and other paltforms which supports Qt-based software).
OpenOrienteering project celebrated its 10th Anniversary since initiated by Thomas 'puzzlepaint on September 25, 2011.[2]
On January 1, 2012 OpenOrienteering Mapper app development was announced.
Actually OpenOrienteering Mapper (Mapper for short) is on the way to 1.0 release.[3]
UPD: Here is 10 Anniversary Discussion on GitHub.[4]
