Some exciting news for Strava users everywhere.


Today, Strava announced the acquisition of FATMAP, a mobile app for discovering, planning, navigating and memorializing outdoor adventures using 3D mapping technology.



In the near future, Strava users can expect a new mapping experience upon completion of FATMAP’s proprietary 3D mapping technology being integrated into the platform.



What does this mean?


In the coming months, there will be more tools at your fingertips to holistically discover and plan an outdoor experience with curated local guides, points of interest and safety information.


Designed specifically for trails and exploring the outdoor world, FATMAP’s technology helps you to safely discover, navigate and share adventures, even without a mobile connection.



The combination of FATMAP’s 3D mapping technology with our data set of activities will make it easier to design routes whether you’re moving on the slopes, in the trails, city streets or neighborhoods.

Your experience on Strava is important and the integration of FATMAP’s features will empower more movement and discovery of the outdoors.


Stay tuned for more information on when these exciting new features will be integrated into your experience on Strava.

Exciting stuff.  Can't wait to see how this works once fully integrated.


not worth the effort of creating an account for a poor attempt at replicating Relive. Especially since its only a 7 day trial then subscription.

 


I live in the Netherlands. Only flat land. What are the benefits for me for FATMAP. 


I think it looks pretty neat, will have to see if it expands past the current mountain ranges. eg if it has the peak district in the UK that would be very neat for route planning. 


Can the Mods tell us when FatMap will be integrated into Strava? It has been a year since the announcement & almost 2 months of shutting down FatMap and pretty much zero updates from Strava.


“Exciting News!”… Exciting, for whom?
FATMAP users are still completely on their own and without alternatives.

We're still missing features like avalanche maps, slope gradient, topographic maps, orienteering maps, etc.

 

Fatmap wasn’t a social tool; it was a safety tool for planning our adventures in technical terrain, not a Kudos counter like Strava.
Terrible decision by Strava to shut down FATMAP before doing anything to integrate it.
