App Description

We present a digital version of the printed road map of St. Petersburg. The edition is realized in the unique cartographic style of the company AGT Geocenter—the style that was acknowledged as one of the best in the world.
The map shows the road network, road signs and traffic lights. Numbers of all the buildings are presented.
Objects which can be of use are also shown: theatres, museums, hotels, hospitals, concert halls, churches, etc.
The edition also features a map of the underground and a set of maps of the cities of Leningrad Region (Zelenogorsk, Kronshtadt, Sestroreck, etc.). The atlas also features transport junctions of St. Petersburg’s ring road.

Highlights of the app:
- You can work in off-line mode.
- You can navigate your way to any desired map section through the traditional index map or simply by turning pages.
- You have the ability to magnify individual parts of a map, search features and bookmark interesting pages.
- You have the ability to add your own information to the map (comments, addresses, telephone numbers – including the ability to dial directly from within the app).
- When using the app in an online mode, you can transit from any map section to a corresponding section of a service of your choosing (Apple Maps, Gоogle Maps, YandexMaps) and back again.

The advantages of the electronic version of the atlas:
- The maps are of as a high a quality as the paper editions – but they are less expensive. Plus as you use them, they do not bend, tear or become lost at the most inopportune moment.
- The ease with which you can search, magnify and examine details, add notes and additional information – utilizing the power and features of today’s devices.

The quality and art of traditional paper maps is being replaced by much less attractive automated digital maps. Our app brings these excellent paper maps into the mobile age, helping to ensure they continue to provide you with both knowledge and enjoyment – it would be a tragedy if they were relegated only to libraries, inaccessible to most people. We want to give a second life to paper maps. This app is for people who love good old printed maps and want to go with the times.
