onX mapping software for rail photos
Author: Lackawanna484

The NY Times had an article this morning about the mapping software onX. It is designed for hunters and hikers, with very precise delineation between public lands and private property.

The software has already created issues as hikers challenge the appropriation of trails and adjacent land by private owners.

Has anyone used this for rail photography and viewing? It would seem like a great asset

Onxmaps is the website

I use it for off roading and I like it. The off road app doesn't show the private property boundary's but does a better job of breaking down roads that are different levels of difficulty. You can also download the maps and then if you don't have service the GPS will still show where you are on a downloaded map. I use it quite a bit off road so the $30 a year is worth it for me.

Thanks. There appear to be several different versions. Hunting, off-road, hiking, etc.

I know of Realtors using this app, mainly for property owner names, etc, to show prospective home/ land buyers the boundaries of the property they are looking to buy.
