About the App

Global Mapper Mobile brings you the kind of mapping and geospatial tools folks actually want to use out in the field — whether you’re hiking in the backcountry, surveying new land, or pinning down details for a project in a remote spot. Built by Blue Marble Geographics, this Maps & Navigation app transforms your Android device into a smart GIS companion, letting you view layers, collect data, and stay on top of your mapping needs without fuss. Expect simple offline access, all kinds of mapping formats, and powerful features designed to work even when cellphone service is MIA.

App Features

  • All-in-One Mobile GIS Access
    Carry every bit of your GIS data wherever you go. Whether it’s vector files, rasters, or terrain layers, you can open and view a huge variety of file types right from your phone or tablet.

  • Smooth GPS Data Collection
    Mark locations, measure distances, and gather site-specific info using your device’s GPS. It’s a breeze to collect data right where you’re standing.

  • Drawing & Digitizing Tools
    Sketch out boundaries, draw lines, or add new features directly onto your map — no extra equipment needed. Perfect for quick edits in the field.

  • Attribute Editing
    Assign details and custom attributes to points, lines, and polygons as you work, so your dataset’s always up to date and organized.

  • Works Offline, No Strings Attached
    Download maps and data ahead of time — no internet required, even for big jobs in remote areas.

  • Photo Point Capture
    Snap a pic and save it on the map as a point, complete with geolocation data. Handy for visual notes during surveys.

  • OpenStreetMap Streaming
    Tap into OpenStreetMap data when you’re online for extra context. You can also pull that data for offline use if you upgrade to Pro.

  • Easy File Transfer
    Move your maps and files back and forth between devices or cloud services like Drive or Dropbox. Sync up with your desktop if you’re a power user, or keep it mobile-only — your call.

  • Custom Pro Features (with Pro Upgrade)
    Unlock some serious mapping muscle with the Pro edition. Get access to extra online map sources, more projection choices, GeoPDF and GeoPackage support, and advanced features like GPS averaging or enterprise licensing.

  • Enterprise Friendly
    Roll it out across your team or company with specialized licensing if you’re managing a bigger operation.

  • Compatible Across Platforms
    If you’re using BlueStacks, you’ll find Global Mapper Mobile works great there too, giving you the same tools right from your desktop setup.
