There should be a sort game like this. Like it shows me a mostly dark map like in video games and as I move around, the maps gets revealed (within 100m radius or within algorithmically determined visibility radius or something). The game would be to open new areas on a map like you would on a video game.
- OmarShehata 3y agoZenly (recently went bust) did this! https://blog.mapbox.com/clear-the-fog-with-zenly-fc7778b06c33 https://blog.mapbox.com/clear-the-fog-with-zenly-fc7778b06c3... > Zenly’s location tech works in real time to uncover the map as you cover more ground. Zenly’s location tracking runs in the background, updating automatically as you check out new neighborhoods and take road trips. (it's very social though I think, more "compete with friends!" than "explore your neighborhood & find delight in small things)
