Antique maps depict a large number of different objects, making them a valuable source of toponymic data since many names have been partially lost today and cannot be found on any large-scale topographic map. Even in our time, many years later, these maps can be relied upon for navigating rural areas with a fair degree of confidence.

Old maps - Schubert, Mende, RKKA, PGM, etc., are always available in offline mode, while satellite maps require an internet connection. Placing a marker is done by long-pressing on the map.
