Orienteers reviewing routes from photographed maps
Worth noticing
Matching points snap toward printed control circles or triangles, with rotate, scale, nudge, and direct-drag adjustments.

Field notes

The tool combines a route diagram from a GPX, TCX, or KML file with a photographed paper map through manually selected corresponding points. Printed control circles or triangles can help guide taps, while rotation, scale, nudge, and optional direct dragging handle the remaining alignment. The page recommends three or four points spread across the map and exports the result at the photo's full resolution. It identifies itself as version 0.5.0 and links to GitHub source.
