Who we are
We are a bunch of people enthusiastic about programming, and inventing new things and we like being active outdoors – on foot or by bike. Locus Map is simply a product naturally resulting from the combination of these things, it’s no rocket science 🙂
A bit of history
Jirka Mlavec a.k.a Menion started programming mapping apps during the first decade of this millennium. One of his products, Locus (without the ‘Map’ suffix at that time) looked especially promising. And eventually, in 2012, it became one of the most favorite outdoor navigations among hikers, bikers, and geocachers. More and more features, a growing user community, and a bulging app environment resulted in the team’s growth around its founder. Nowadays our team consists of 10 members and it seems more will be needed soon…
