    Description

    In 2023, Google Maps was the most downloaded map and navigation app in the United States, despite being a standard pre-installed app on Android smartphones. Waze followed, with 9.89 million downloads in the examined period. The app, which comes with maps and the possibility to access information on traffic via users reports, was developed in 2006 by the homonymous Waze company, acquired by Google in 2013.

    Usage of navigation apps in the U.S. As of 2021, less than two in 10 U.S. adults were using a voice assistant in their cars, in order to place voice calls or follow voice directions to a destination. Navigation apps generally offer the possibility for users to download maps to access when offline. Native iOS app Apple Maps, which does not offer this possibility, was by far the navigation app with the highest data consumption, while Google-owned Waze used only 0.23 MB per 20 minutes.

    Usage of navigation apps worldwide In July 2022, Google Maps was the second most popular Google-owned mobile app, with 13.35 million downloads from global users during the examined month. In China, the Gaode Map app, which is operated along with other navigation services by the Alibaba owned AutoNavi, had approximately 730 million monthly active users as of September 2022.

Esri produced this vector tile basemap in ArcGIS Pro from a live replica of OSM data, hosted by Esri, and rendered using a creative cartographic style emulating a blueprint technical drawing. The vector tiles are updated every few weeks with the latest OSM data. This vector basemap is freely available for any user or developer to build into their web map or web mapping apps.OpenStreetMap (OSM) is an open collaborative project to create a free editable map of the world. Volunteers gather location data using GPS, local knowledge, and other free sources of information and upload it. The resulting free map can be viewed and downloaded from the OpenStreetMap site: www.OpenStreetMap.org. Esri is a supporter of the OSM project and is excited to make this new vector basemap available available to the OSM, GIS, and Developer communities.

    Market Size
    Description

    The global hiking apps market is experiencing robust growth, driven by the increasing popularity of outdoor activities and advancements in mobile technology. The market, estimated at $500 million in 2025, is projected to exhibit a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15% from 2025 to 2033, reaching an estimated $1.5 billion by 2033. This expansion is fueled by several key factors. Firstly, the rising adoption of smartphones and improved internet accessibility, particularly in developing economies, significantly expands the potential user base for these apps. Secondly, the integration of advanced features like offline map capabilities, augmented reality overlays, real-time tracking, and social sharing functionalities enhances user experience and drives engagement. Furthermore, the increasing focus on health and wellness is contributing to the market's growth, as many individuals turn to hiking and outdoor activities as a form of exercise and stress relief. The market is segmented by app features (navigation, social, fitness tracking etc.), pricing models (freemium, subscription), and geographical regions, offering various opportunities for app developers and investors. Competitive rivalry is strong, with established players like AllTrails and Gaia GPS facing competition from newer entrants offering niche features or specialized services. However, the market is still relatively fragmented, offering significant potential for innovation and market share expansion for players with strong value propositions and effective marketing strategies. The growth of the hiking apps market is not without challenges. Data privacy concerns, the need for consistent map updates and accurate location services, and reliance on stable internet connectivity in remote areas present significant hurdles. Moreover, maintaining user engagement and monetization strategies through in-app purchases or subscriptions require careful consideration. The market's future hinges on the continuous development of advanced features that address user needs and enhance safety, alongside robust marketing and user acquisition strategies that capture the growing base of outdoor enthusiasts. This includes catering to diverse user preferences, from casual hikers to seasoned adventurers, and adapting to changing technological trends. Geographic expansion into emerging markets with high potential for growth will also be crucial in driving future market expansion.

    Description

    This abstract contains links to public ArcGIS maps that include locations of carbonate springs and some of their characteristics. Information for accessing and navigating through the maps are included in a PowerPoint presentation IN THE FILE UPLOAD SECTION BELOW. Three separate data sets are included in the maps:

    1. Geochemistry data from the US Water Quality Portal (WQP), which compiles geochemistry data from the USGS and other federal agencies.
    2. Discharge data from WoKaS, a world wide spring discharge data set (Olarinoye et al., 2020).
    3. Regional karst data from selected US state agencies.

    Several base maps are included in the links. The US carbonate map describes and categorizes carbonates (e.g., depth from surface, overlying geology/ice, climate). The carbonate springs map categorizes springs as being urban, specifically within 1000 ft of a road, or rural. The basis for this categorization was that the heat island effect defines urban as within a 1000 ft of a road. There are other methods for defining urban versus rural to consider. Map links and details of the information they contain are listed below.

    Map set 1: The WQP map provides three mapping options separated by the parameters available at each spring site. These maps summarize discrete water quality samples, but not data logger availability. Information at each spring provides links for where users can explore further data.

    Option 1: WQP data with urban and rural springs labeled, with highlight of springs with or without NWIS data https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=2ce914ec01f14c20b58146f5d9702d8a

    Options 2: WQP data by major ions and a few other solutes https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5a114d2ce24c473ca07ef9625cd834b8

    Option 3:WQP data by various carbon species https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=ae406f1bdcd14f78881905c5e0915b96

Description

In 2023, Google Maps was the most downloaded map and navigation app in the United States, despite being a standard pre-installed app on Android smartphones. Waze followed, with 9.89 million downloads in the examined period. The app, which comes with maps and the possibility to access information on traffic via users reports, was developed in 2006 by the homonymous Waze company, acquired by Google in 2013.

Usage of navigation apps in the U.S. As of 2021, less than two in 10 U.S. adults were using a voice assistant in their cars, in order to place voice calls or follow voice directions to a destination. Navigation apps generally offer the possibility for users to download maps to access when offline. Native iOS app Apple Maps, which does not offer this possibility, was by far the navigation app with the highest data consumption, while Google-owned Waze used only 0.23 MB per 20 minutes.

Usage of navigation apps worldwide In July 2022, Google Maps was the second most popular Google-owned mobile app, with 13.35 million downloads from global users during the examined month. In China, the Gaode Map app, which is operated along with other navigation services by the Alibaba owned AutoNavi, had approximately 730 million monthly active users as of September 2022.
