QMapShack visualizes maps and tracks
Conclusions
QMapShack is an interesting and powerful program for outdoor and mapping enthusiasts. Small things like the storage and printing functions, which do not work well in all situations, cloud the overall impression but are basically only additional features at the end of the day. The display features for online and offline maps work very well, as do the functions for creating and managing tracks and routes. After a training phase, QMapShack is very useful for planning and documenting tours. The integration of Routino also works surprisingly well, even though the routing function requires a large amount of additional storage space.
