Flyover Country is a National Science Foundation funded offline mobile app for geoscience outreach and data discovery. The app exposes interactive geologic maps from Macrostrat.org, fossil localities from Neotomadb.org and Paleobiodb.org, Wikipedia articles, offline base maps, and the user’s current GPS determined location, altitude, speed, and heading. The app analyzes a given flight path and caches relevant map data and points of interest (POI), and displays these data during the flight, without in flight wifi. By downloading only the data relevant to a particular flightpath, cache sizes remain reasonable, allowing for a robust experience without an internet connection.
Flyover Country is not limited to the window seat of airplanes. It is also ideal for road trips, hiking, and other outdoor activities such as field trips and geologic field work.

Flyover Country Reviews

Nice if it worked but it doesn’t

RetiredScientist on

United States

iPhone 14 location services on - doesn’t find GPS whether you’re online, on cell, or in airplane mode. IF it worked, a failing is that it doesn’t identify rivers. Too bad. Would be great it if worked.

Works good, but data save is very slow

MatthewMorgan78255 on

United States

I love the interactive tour…. Best from a window seat. Why does the data take so long to download?

App doesn’t work

Window seat geek on

United States

I fly between the coasts a few times a year. I got the app to work for a short time my first flight about two years ago but it’s never worked since. I can never find gps even if inflight wifi is available.

Great concept…

Gsp canine on

United States

GPS very spotty and 90% of time does not work even on my new iphone. Window seat held up to window … all of the stuff they suggest does not make difference. Love the idea but very frustrating to download route and not be able to use them . Deleting app.

Rarely sees gps data

oregon rogue on

United States

I love the concept of this app but have been sorely disappointed trying to use it. It’s always “searching for gps signal”. The strange thing is other apps seem to see the gps. If I open Google maps, I can’t see the map but I can see that my position is moving on the grid. Same with Apple Maps. There’s some technical glitch here.

What happened to the Wikipedia articles?

United States

Most recent update seems to have removed them. That really damages the usefulness of the app. Globe Observer offers very little other content at the moment.

Sad, seemed like a nice app

Kyoung21b on

United States

I used the app for one trip and really enjoyed it, but, sadly, haven’t been able to save a path since. The download gets to about 95 % (according the indicator anyway) and hangs after that, every time.

Portrait nonsense

Eugene Hulbert on

United States

Portrait orientation only, worthless.
