Projects: Organize Maps, Markers, and Routes

A project is your unit of organization. Think of it like a notebook for one trip, season, or theme.

Why projects matter

  • Keeps markers and routes from different trips from mixing
  • Makes sharing and GPX export straightforward
  • Helps you stay within plan limits (projects, markers, routes)

Recommended project patterns

  • One project per trip (best default)
  • One project per region (when you visit repeatedly)
  • One project per activity (hiking vs cycling vs road trips)

Pro tip: naming

Use names that include both place and purpose, for example: "Iceland - Ring Road Draft" or "Banff - Hikes 2026".

FAQ

How many projects can I create? It depends on your plan. See plan limits for details.

Should I split one big trip into multiple projects? Yes, if the trip has distinct regions or phases.
