VIEWRANGER SEARCH AND PROGRAMME (VSAR)

The ViewRanger Program delivers free national mapping agency topographic maps to members of Search & Rescue teams across the world. These maps are for use in conjunction with the free ViewRanger GPS software application, which can be downloaded from many app stores.

What you get through the VSAR programme:  Detailed maps for your search and rescue area for use offline on the ViewRanger app on smartphones and tablets (Android and iOS, not Windows) – see list below  In certain countries: Access to detailed map data on laptops/PCs/etc via the http://my.viewranger.com website (these have * on list below)  Discounts on other ViewRanger maps

What you don’t get:  Mobile phone handsets. You need to source your own compatible (Android and iOS) phone handsets or tablets.

What you agree to in return:  To use ViewRanger and provide feedback on ViewRanger and its use within your search and rescue organisation  That ViewRanger can reference your organisation in its marketing materials and on its website, and put your organisation's logo on the search and rescue partners page of the ViewRanger website  To supply free mapping licenses only to bona fide members of your organisation
