Description

Our unique zoomable 'Oceania' map atlas is available in the English [the Default], French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Netherlands (Dutch) languages. This app generates custom real-time regional maps plus maps for each country and major island group in the overall geographical that is roughly defined as the "South Pacific". Separate maps are also included for each of the states and territories of Australia. The area covered ranges from the Northern Marianas [US] in the north to Tasmania [AU] in the south, and from the Cocos Islands [AU] in the west to the Pitcairn Islands [UK] in the east and includes all of Australia and New Zealand.

If you give permission in the Privacy Settings of your device, this version will also show your current location on the maps as a pulsating blue circular marker. If you adjust the map being displayed, your current location will be automatically updated using your device's GPS location.

Easily switch between 'Road', 'Hybrid', or 'Satellite' maps, and zoom in or out to any detail level desired -- down to the house level! Change to a different area of focus with the drag of a finger and your display is instantly updated.

Tapping a 'Facts' Button, when shown, displays extensive relevant interactive descriptive information from Wikipedia. By following indicated links, more facts and photos are available in a specific areas of interest.

Using a new 'Settings' tab, you can select the GPS Coordinates format to be displayed on all maps, or omit it. Three different popular display formats are supported: Traditional [dddmmss.xx] , Modern [ddd.xxxxx], and Geocaching [dddmm.xxx]. As you drag or zoom on a map display, the GPS coordinates of the center of the display are automatically updated.

Tap the camera icon to quickly capture the created map image to your device's Photo Gallery. [Later you can print or share this image with others via Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, or email using the Apple-provided 'Photo' app.]

Using the 'World' tab, tap an appropriate button to launch any of the other component apps in our World Atlas series that are installed on the device.
