Field notes

The described workflow begins with a flat sketch, then adds elevation through sculpting brushes that can also be used on the 3D view. Users can trace an existing map image, add markers with notes, and export worlds as files. The page says browser storage works without an account; signing in adds cross-device access and earlier versions. Shared links are described as view-only.
