AccuTerra On-Demand is your one-stop GPS outdoor recreation app with terrain, trail, and ski area maps designed for the iPhone, encompassing over five million square miles. These are not shrunken USGS maps that were made to print in 2 foot paper sheets; AccuTerra HD maps are TRIPLE the zoom level and contain the most recent trail and public land data available, optimized for your iPhone. Comparable recreation maps for expensive dedicated GPS units can cost hundreds in additional fees - AccuTerra gives you access to millions of square miles at a fraction of the price.

PLEASE NOTE!! AccuTerra is an "In-App" storefront with premium (paid) products for sale within it. The app is free to download and provides a free on-demand AccuTerra sample of over 100 square miles. If you like your free maps, you may then buy access to the rest of your state for a very reasonable price.

Maps are quickly downloaded and stored into the device's memory - select Grid mode to get ~50 square miles at a time of your free sample maps. Once you've tried your sample data, select your whole state for one low price. Or choose from over 350 defined recreation areas in the AccuTerra catalog. AccuTerra provides an accurate GPS location, on beautiful color maps, wherever you have clear line of sight to the skyeven if you're hundreds of miles from the nearest cell signal. Choose from over 220,000 miles of trails, thousands of trailheads, campgrounds, picnic areas — it's the ONLY app available that displays all major public land boundaries.

* U.S.A. HD coverage is the contiguous United States (the "u2018lower 48') and does not include Alaska. Our apologies to Alaska and its visitors -the cost to produce maps is prohibitive; it's just too darn big and most of it is remote. We hope to include the great state of Alaska sometime in the future.
