Androzic – OziExplorer Maps for Android

Androzic is a Brilliant Navigation client for Android devices that uses OziExplorer maps (ozf2, ozfx3).

Great for hiking, geocaching, off-roading, sailing, boating and other outdoor activities. You are expected to be aware of OziExplorer or at least of where to get its maps. Maps also can be created by yourself, but with some afford. Can work without maps as a simple navigator.

OziExplorer GPS mapping real time tracking software for Android Devices

OziExplorer for Android is moving map software for devices running the ANDROID O/S. It uses raster map images which are either scanned or purchased in digital format. It allows you to track your position received from the GPS on a map (moving map).

OziExplorer for Android is not automatic route planning software, you cannot request the best way to get from point A to point B, the types of maps OziExplorer for Android uses do not allow this.


 


OziExplorer runs on Android devices but it relies on map calibrations etc to be provided by the full PC version of OziExplorer, you also need the full OziExplorer to calibrate maps, plan trips by adding waypoints etc.

The unlicensed OziExplorer for Android will work with the unlicensed OziExplorer but the limitations of both packages will apply.
