Blue Marble Geographics Releases Global Mapper Mobile v3.0 with New Contour Line Generation

Hallowell, Maine – August 13, 2024 – Blue Marble Geographics is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Global Mapper Mobile® version 3.0. Designed and optimized for taking geospatial data into the field for reference, editing, and new data collection. The update to this iOS and Android app presents user interface improvements, an easier connection to online data, and a new contour creation tool.

Freely available from the iOS App Store and Google Play Store, Global Mapper Mobile version 3.0 expands usability with new methods for map creation in the field. While the mobile app can be used with maps prepared in the all-in-one desktop GIS, Global Mapper Pro, version 3.0 allows the loading of relevant online basemap data and the creation of a blank map space centered on the user’s GPS location to begin immediate field data collection. Additional updates to the app interface make it more user-friendly by better organizing the in-app settings, and providing users the ability to adjust the vector feature label size for display on the mobile map.

Taking Global Mapper Mobile further, the subscription Pro Module includes many exciting updates too. With improved Volume Calculation reporting, a new field analysis tool for contour generation, and support for the new Emlid Reach RX GNSS device on both iOS and Android systems the mobile Pro Module is more valuable than ever before.

“Many of the new features in version 3.0 of Global Mapper Mobile come from user requests,” states Mackenzie Mills, Associate Product Manager. “Beginning a workflow with Global Mapper Mobile in the field has been made more accessible and the growing Pro Module analysis toolset now with contour generation fills in the need for quick field calculations and map enhancements.”

Created as part of the Global Mapper Suite from Blue Marble Geographics, Global Mapper Mobile extends the desktop GIS application by taking vector, raster, and elevation data into the field with editing and quick analysis tools. With the release of Global Mapper Mobile version 3.0 the app furthers its ability to operate as a standalone tool and increases the value of the Global Mapper Suite for users in industries world-wide.

Global Mapper Mobile can be downloaded straight to your device from Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iOS). For more information, visit the Blue Marble Geographics website bluemarblegeo.com/global-mapper-mobile.
