O'Rienteering Map SnippetTHE MAP

  • Scale is 1:10,000 with 40-foot contours (see snippet of general area above)

  • Map is NOT FIELD CHECKED and private property is NOT MARKED – use your best judgment when making your route choices

THE APP

  • MapRun runs on your Android or iPhone smartphone and is how we track, time, and score this orienteering race.
  • You can download and install MapRun here.
  • You can view an example map with instructions from an event that took place in Tasmania, Australia (where Maprun is REALLY popular)
  • Here is an overview video of MapRun in action.
