Hunt App

[jackelope]

Do you have the private parcels and the govt land layers on?

What I want to know is what happened to the "Aerial imagery+Topo" option. Matt told me they pull topo off of a government source which was unavailable during the govt shutdown, and I understand that. The option came back for a short time when the gov went back online but its gone again now. I've got a pm into him and am waiting on a response.

That's lake sammamish.

Looks to be a UI constraints. 

I happen to know a guy who builds and can help make apps better.   

Wait until mine comes out.

It's hunting season so I've been out chasing the ducks around.  Packing up to head to ND for a week chasing ducks and geese but wanted to touch base real quick.

Thanks for the hint on the feel free to hunt lands I will see if we can get that data.

On the App we have removed the heavily subdivided lands on the App for areas like King County.  With the amount of data and the houses being so close we figured those weren't very important for the HUNT App and would allow the App to work much faster without all of that data.

The SD card works on all of the Nuvi models.  Please PM when ready to purchase and I will get you a deal.

We have two full time guys answering about 150 calls and 150 emails everyday.  They might miss one or two people but we are proud of the hard work they and the company puts into Customer Service.  If you ever have a problem you can reach me at 406-540-1600 x310 if I'm not out hunting!

We do not provide a legend for our maps.  Those are for paper maps that aren't interactive.  If you select any section of land it will tell you who owns the property so their is no need for a legend.  Maybe a general reference legend would be useful to have as one of the tool tabs though?  It is something I can bring up at our next meeting.

Android beta version should be out withing 2 weeks.

The USGS base layers were served up to us on a Government Server and with the Shutdown that went bye-bye.  I believe they are back up now but we are looking for sources we can host ourselves to provide better base layers.

Cheers,
Matt

I've been using their data chip in my Garmin rino for 4 years and it is awesome .  It really helps identify landowners and is great for identifying state lands and corner crossing.  I have walked right down unfenced property lines many times and walked right to a bureau stake to cross.  I've had landowners marvel at my ability to pick my way through checkerboarded areas legally with one even asking me what I was using so he could buy one.  I've also helped landowners fix incorrect signs with this product.  I can't speak specifically to the phone ap as I haven't yet used it but the chip is great.  This company also has great customer service, especially if you buy directly from them.  I have purchased chips for 3 states from them and have also had them update my chips when new info became available.  a+ company IMHO!

Matt - there are 3 and 4 acre parcels in King County without landowner data. Sometimes knowing who owns a 4 acre parcel is significant when attempting to gain access.

Isn't that the purpose of the program?

If you're unable to provide software that has adequate performance with all landowner data, then perhaps you need to offer the data in smaller chunks like counties so a user can turn on or off certain portions of the state.

This really is not a very acceptable solution, in my opinion.

Still waiting for the android version! Maybe next year I can put this into good use!

With our new servers up and running I had a meeting with the powers that be today.  They have agreed to put the city parcel data back in for the entire state now that our servers can handle it.  You should have full access as soon as the change happens on our server.  Thanks for your feedback we are listening!

Tag... wanna stay informed as I've got this downloaded on my iPhone.

I agree aaronoto regarding no color key. I often wonder what the pink, green, light green, yellow, etc... colors stand for and wish it would give me a simple place to find out what I'm looking at.

THANK YOU. That is the only "complaint" I have ever had about an awesome product.

[dscubame]

Tagging this to stay informed. Waiting for the android app. Thanks for exposing yourself to the abuse that comes with product support. If I have any issues, I'll try to PM you 1st.

   me too with the same good attitude.

[whacker1]

tagging along as well.  I will be happy to test the android app.

[jackelope]

Topo and aerial maps are back. Thanks Matt!

[onX Hunt]

Android should be out within a week.  It will be a Beta version and may have some bugs at first but as with the iPhone App we will continue to work to fix them.  After all we want to be able to use it for our hunts as well!!

It sure seems like you guys do your best to take care of your customers. You can count on my business for the landowner maps SD card.

Any chance of a discount for HuntWA members on the yearly updates? Thanks,
