Singletrail Map comes with a new base map

The Singletrail Map takes the next big development step and uses a completely newly developed base map that comes impressively close to the legendary Swisstopo national maps. They are more accurate, more contrasty and provide a completely new map image. From now on, the official Swisstopo maps can also be used as a base map.

The new base map of the Singletrail Map is particularly impressive in the area of Switzerland, as rock hatching, for example, now makes it easier to read. In addition, the fonts have been optimized and elevation shading has been improved. This significant step was made possible by the release of data by Swisstopo in March of this year. At the behest of the Federal Council, the official federal topographical data was declared "Open Government Data" and released for all applications.

It is now also possible to switch to the official Swiss national maps in the Singletrail Map web map. It is now possible to project the route network of the Singletrail Map onto the legendary 25'000 Map. However, the representation of the route network, which now covers over 120,000 kilometers, is fully aligned with the self-developed base map, which, unlike the conventional national maps, is also continuously updated.

The new map is available immediately. The Singletrail Map web map is freely accessible exclusively for Ride subscribers with Gold status.
