Testimonials

You can read some reviews on the App Store . Here is an excerpt:

A great example of what an iOS app should be. This is a wonderful app. It does one thing - lets you take photos of things you see on your trip and add captions to them. It can then display those photos in order in either a list or on a map. There are interfaces to see the photos in iOS and also in a browser. A link for each specific trip is provided so that you can share the trip with friends and family or your network. It is very easy to add waypoints, which is what the photos are called, and you can add optional data such as the weather or type of point. And if the camera didn't capture the map location correctly, there is an easy way to fix it. These single purpose apps are what iOS is built for, and track my tour is a great example of how to do it right. Kudos and thanks to everyone involved in making and supporting this app.

Make interactive maps to track your trip

Maps aren't just for navigation. Here's how you can keep track of your trip and share the journey with friends by making interactive maps.

• Webby Award honoree, 2x Gold Telly Award winner

Planning a holiday? Apart from working out an itinerary and places to stay, you may want to keep track of your journey along the way by making an interactive map.

Whether you're an app fan or prefer a dedicated GPS device, there are many different tools available to suit all budgets. Share the journey with friends and family, or just keep the map as a memento of your trip.

Here are just a few of the many ways you can make interactive maps to track your trip.

Google Maps Engine

Often the first port of call for those who already have a Google account, the search giant's map offering is fairly robust when it comes to creating custom maps if you want to input everything manually.

To get started on desktop, head to maps.google.com . In the top left corner, hover over the search bar and select "Create". This will open up the Maps Engine -- or you can bookmark that link and go straight there.

From here, you can plot your route manually by using the search box to enter in location names. Then, drop the marker tool over starting points, or points of interest. Once the marker tool is in place, you have the option to enter a name and notes for the pin.

Along the route in selected locations where you drop pins, you can add photos and videos that appear alongside the pin. Unfortunately, Google Maps doesn't support uploading images through the interface directly. Instead, you'll need to upload them in a separate location or from a photo-sharing service and paste the link. Otherwise, you can do a Google image or YouTube search to add relevant photos and videos.

From here, create a driving, biking, or walking route to trace your trip using the drawing tool. The mapping tool also offers some extra control by giving distance measurements, layer settings and directions. Sharing is as simple as selecting the "Share" option from the top right of the screen.

If this all sounds like too much, don't worry. Plenty of the following tools and apps feature tight integration with Google Maps so all the hard work is done for you.

Hema Explorer

Designed for the keen roadtripper, Hema Explorer is a fully-fledged navigation and mapping app for Australian roads that runs on iOS and Android. It supports online and offline GPS navigation and is one of the most comprehensive apps available to keep track of your trip.

The app comes with a variety of different maps including street, terrain, and satellite. A weather radar overlay adds another level of granularity -- plus there are over 40,000 points of interest included to give you information about sights and locations.

Hema Explorer also supports adding custom waypoints to keep a track of your specific journey. Using your device's built-in camera, you can add geotagged photos to a particular waypoint.

The app also supports syncing trips via the Hema Explorer Cloud. This transfers waypoints, photos with geotagged information, and track recordings to your online account which can then be shared via Facebook, Twitter or a custom link.

Magellan eXplorist 610

For those who want to get serious about mapping and prefer to carry a dedicated GPS device, the Magellan eXplorist range may be for you. Powered by two AA batteries, the unit acts as a navigation device and comes equipped with a 3.2-megapixel camera, microphone and touchscreen to record your trip.

Once the device calibrates your position, it can act as a navigator or a tool to track your progress. You can create waypoints and routes, while images taken using the device's camera are geotagged and placed on the map. Maps include road routes for Australia, United States, Canada, and Western Europe, with other major roads elsewhere in the world available on the default world map.

Using the free VantagePoint software, you can import these tracks and geotagged images to see them overlaid on a satellite map. Alternatively, you can convert the GPX file created by the eXplorist to a KML file for easy importing into Google Maps or Google Earth.

The Traveler

Available for Android, this free app provides a centralised way to keep tabs on your journey. Create a trip in the app by entering a name and optional parameters like a start/end date.

Once this is established, you can record a path that uses your smartphone or tablet's location to keep track of where you have been until you stop recording. On top of location mapping, the app lets you add photos, video, audio, notes and markers to your trip.

Plus, you can automatically import photos taken with the default camera app when recording a path, so you don't manually need to enter into the Traveler app and use the camera from there each time you want to take a photo.

The Traveler includes S Pen support for some Samsung Galaxy Note handsets that lets you add sketches to a trip. Plus, if you are a Google Glass user, there are plenty of options for tracking your trip on the go.

Exporting is a one-touch process, with the option to send the route straight to Google Maps or to play the path via Google Earth.

TrackMyTour

For iOS users, TrackMyTour offers similar functionality to The Traveler, but lets your friends and family follow along with the journey (though not in real time). As it's not a real time GPS tracker, battery consumption should be reduced.

You can add waypoints even if you don't have a data connection, and then sync these when in Wi-Fi or data range. This app offers the most scope for acting as a travel diary as well as a route tracker, with captions and note-taking facilities available to document different stops along the way.

While TrackMyTour is free, you are limited to two maps. An extra purchase is required to unlock more maps.

Sharing options are provided via email, Twitter or Facebook integration.

Amazing Tracker

I love this app. Polarsteps easily tracks stops on roadtrips and flights - the trip tracker is awesome. Also love the profile page, especially the overall map view that has the red dots to show all trip stops - the only thing I’d want to see improved would be being able to see that map up close. Like if you could tap on the overall trip map behind the profile photo so you could see top level how many spots someone has been. That map is one of the coolest features but it’s kinda hidden behind the profile photo and other UI elements on the top half of that page. Even if you just repeat that map element at the bottom of the profile, so keep it up top behind the profile photo (because it’s great to see as the first thing), but then as a user scrolls down the profile through all the stats, you get to that map again - but here you can zoom in and actually see all the Stop Dots without any UI blocking it - that would be awesome! Really love your app. Can tell it’s designed and built by avid travelers!

Cannot get it to work for current trip!

I’ve been traveling for a month and found out about this from a fellow traveler. It’s brilliant in concept but I cannot get it to track my current trip. It synced all of my trips from 7 years ago from my photos with all gps location details, and attached photos to those locations. But the point of me using it is for my current trip and it is just a blank slat. Does not import my photos, location, or dates at all. I’ve done everything I can think of, went into a deep dive in my iOS settings, went through the trip settings, my account settings, read through pretty much the ENTIRE help center, scoured Reddit, updated my phone, deleted my account and reinstalled it, restarted my phone etc and NOTHING WORKS!! It wants me to add everything manually down to the date I flew and the location I flew into and then the next place I stayed etc but at no point does it ever finally pick up in syncing to fill the info in. I ended the trips, restarted the trip, every thing I can possibly think of and NOTHING works. What is the point in using this for your friends and family to track your travels if it only syncs trip details after you arrive back home?!?! The only trips it syncs are ones where I’ve ended AND flown back to my home location. Otherwise this stupid thing is WORTHLESS and you might as well just post on social media because it will be endlessly less frustrating!!!

Developer Response ,

Hello! Thanks for the review, we are sorry to hear that you are having some issues with your current trip not tracking correctly. Can you please send an email to [email protected] highlighting these issues so that we can look into it for you?

Cool but very bad photo suggestions / annoying to use

I like the UI and visualization, but it is such a pain having to fight the app in order to add locations (which it renames to the county—who ever cares about the county? Just name the step the location you searched, like Grand Canyon should not be renamed to the county), then when you add photos the suggestions are always off and you have to manually look through photos. What it should do is look at your photos and suggest all the ones on that same date, even if they don’t have the geo location tag (DSLR photos). Entering in dates is also a pain, new step button for some reason always assumes you do it on a new day, so I have to go back and manually change that too. I’m sure if you use it to actively track new trips it works okay, but I’m frustrated with the experience of filling it in manually. It captured some of the trips I did in the past by analyzing my photos, but again renames all the locations to stuff nobody knows (it calls Muir Woods national monument by its county name) and will split trips into two sometimes, with no easy way to combine them. Features seem to be there but usability is lacking IMO, not really worth the effort (I did try a few other competitor apps and this is more features but still a pain).

Hi , thanks for your feedback! We're continuously working on improving the app and would love to hear your thoughts. Could you reach out to us at [email protected] and elaborate on your feedback a bit further? Cheers!

How to Track a Flight in Real Time

Ever wondered how to track a flight? Here’s what you need to know, including nine flight tracker apps and websites to check out.

If you've ever looked up at a plane flying by and wondered where it's coming from and where it's going, it's actually rather easy to find out. Thanks to flight tracking programs, all the information about any given flight is just a click (or tap) away. These days, many flight trackers provide real-time updates about a plane's location, altitude, and speed, and they can be used to monitor nearly all commercial and cargo flights, and even some private and military flights, too. So if you're curious about where your inbound flight is, or if you'd like to track the arrival of someone you're picking up at the airport, you can use a flight tracker to keep tabs on the plane.

How does flight tracking work?

Radar is technically still the global standard for tracking flights, but it has many limitations — numerous areas don't have radar coverage, like the majority of the ocean. Today, flight tracking is shifting to a surveillance system called Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast, or ADS-B. "Most aircraft today (and virtually all commercial aircraft) are now equipped with an ADS-B transponder which shares every second its detailed position, altitude, and speed parameters with other aircraft and with air traffic control. This is a much more efficient system than the previous system relying on radar," Kathleen Bangs, a spokesperson for flight tracking company FlightAware, tells Travel + Leisure . Companies that track flights can use global networks of ADS-B receivers to determine the positions of flights all around the world.

How to Track a Flight

While the specifics vary depending on your tracker of choice, generally speaking, you can input any flight number into a flight tracking app or website and see all the key data about that flight, from its ETA to its altitude to its ground speed. Some flight trackers are less sophisticated and might only provide limited information, like departure and arrival times.

Best Flight Tracker Apps and Websites

Flightaware.

" FlightAware operates the world's largest flight tracking and data platform," says Bangs. "We receive data from our terrestrial network of over 35,000 ADS-B receivers in 195 countries, air traffic control systems in over 45 countries, FlightAware-Aireon global space-based ADS-B, and datalink (satellite/VHF) via every major provider including ARINC, SITA, Satcom Direct, Garmin, and Honeywell GoDirect." On both the desktop website and the mobile app, you can input specific flights to track, or you can look at a global map to see what planes are nearby. We particularly like that you can add a weather radar overlay to the map.

Flightradar24

"Flight tracking on Flightradar24 is powered by a network of ADS-B receivers, the largest such independent network in the world. Individuals apply to host an ADS-B receiver, and once installed, this receives signals from aircraft," Chris Lomas, a Flightradar24 aviation content specialist, tells T+L . "Thousands of aircraft are tracked by our network each day." Like Flight Aware, it has a global map for you to peruse current flights. But one of the most fun tools on the Flightradar24 app, specifically, is the AR feature. When you use it, it opens up your camera, and any plane within the image will be tagged with details like its flight number, departure point, and destination.

Plane Finder

Plane Finder has both a global map showing air traffic as well as a search function to find specific flights using flight numbers, routes, callsigns, tail numbers, or even aircraft types or airports. It also provides useful data points for airports and airlines, from departure and arrival boards to a list of the different aircraft in a fleet.

RadarBox is another service that shows a real-time map of current flights. Our favorite feature is the most-viewed flights ticker at the top of the webpage, which is updated with real-time viewer stats. You can also tune into several air traffic control radios.

FlightView doesn't have a full map like FlightAware, Flightradar24, Plane Finder, or RadarBox, but it does allow you to track your flights with ease by inputting either your flight number or your departure and arrival information. It also has a useful airport delay map, which shows the delay status of many of the major airports around the country.

FlightStats

FlightStats is quite similar to FlightView in that its sole purpose is tracking specific flights. You can also research current conditions at airports, from delays to weather forecasts, as well as see a full list of arrivals and departures at each airport.

Flighty is a particularly useful flight-tracking app that keeps your data from past flights, so you can track annual and lifetime data (for example, how many miles you've flown or how many different aircraft you've flown). It's also ideal for keeping tabs on changing information in real-time, such as equipment changes, gate changes, and delays — and you can easily set up notifications.

Google Flight Tracker

Google's flight tracker might not be very advanced, but it does provide some crucial information: departure and arrival times and gate information. All you have to do is search for a flight number on Google, and a box with those details will appear in the search results. There's also a helpful visual to show you how much of the flight has been completed.

Airline Apps

You can also track a flight via the airline's app by navigating to the Flight Status tool (you can also find this on an airline website). Though each airline has its own tracking features, they typically show the departure and arrival times, gate information, altitude, and map of where the plane is located.

Mayflower II will travel through Cape Cod Canal soon. Here's how you can track the ship.

As long as tides and weather cooperate, the Mayflower II will be homeward bound from the Mystic Seaport on April 10, setting off at about 10:30 a.m., according to the Plimoth Patuxet Museums .

For anyone hoping to catch a glimpse of the tall ship traversing the Cape Cod Canal on the way to her home berth alongside State Pier at Pilgrim Memorial State Park in Plymouth, her progress can be tracked by visiting www.tinyurl.com/trackMayflower2 , a service of marinetraffic.com.

Once it leaves the seaport, the Mayflower II will travel non-stop to Plymouth Harbor. The journey, approximately 78 miles, will take about 20 to 25 hours. It's possible its passage through the canal could begin in the early morning hours of April 11.

"We will give an ETA once the ship actually gets underway and we are better able to determine," said Plimoth Patuxet Director of Marketing & Communications Rob Kluin .  

Although it may traverse the canal while it is still dark, with the lighting that exists along the waterway, spectators would still be able to see the ship as it passes through, according to Kluin. It will take the ship about an hour to traverse the canal.

The 102-foot wooden vessel will not be under sail — the sails have yet to be bent onto the yards, Kluin said — but will instead be towed the entire way by Stasinos Marine out of Weymouth, Kluin said. It will be crewed by the Plimoth Patuxet maritime preservation and operations team led by Capt. Whit Perry. They will not be in period costumes for the voyage.

The crew recently completed up-rigging the ship — putting up spars, blocks and rigging — in preparation for her trip home, according to a post on the Plimoth Patuxet Museums' Facebook page .

The 67-year-old ship, a full-scale reproduction of the vessel that brought the first European immigrants to the shores of Patuxet more than 400 years ago, has been in dry dock at the Henry B. duPont Preservation Shipyard in Mystic, Connecticut since arriving there Dec. 1. Over the winter, it underwent routine maintenance, including cleaning the bottom, painting and caulking the seams. The work was funded by a Save America's Treasures grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services .

The travel schedule is subject to change, depending on tide, weather and other factors. The Plimoth Patuxet Museums will also have updates on its Facebook page .

Mayflower II is slated to be open to the public at her Plymouth berth starting at 9 a.m. on April 13. According to Plimoth Patuxet Museums Executive Director Ellie Donovan, the ship has seen millions of visitors from around the world since it arrived in Plymouth as a gift to the museum from England in 1957.

“We are thankful for IMLS recognizing the importance of this treasured landmark and for helping to ensure she will be preserved for generations to come," Donovan said.

Location Map

Where is curiosity.

Scroll and pan around this map to see Curiosity’s latest location and traverse path through Gale Crater since landing on Mars in August, 2012. While the path might seem to wander, Curiosity’s team never loses sight of their goal: to explore places that can answer questions about whether Gale Crater was habitable in the distant past.

About This Map

This map is composed of two layers: a grayscale Gale Crater map, and a true-color base map. Both were created with image data from the Context and the HiRISE cameras on NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. A high resolution, Digital Elevation Model was created from the images to provide critical information for rover drivers, who need to know how steep the hills are as they plan a path forward through this rocky terrain.

Engineers created this experience with software used by the mission team who decide where Curiosity will explore, and how to get there. Each dot represents the end point of a drive and is labeled with the day, or Sol, on Mars, that the rover stopped.
