A secure mapping and navigation app for people and local drivers in conflict-prone or politically restricted regions where mainstream maps are unreliable.
Community and secure mapping for underserved/contested regions
Recent reporting — a Wired profile of a West Bank Telegram channel trying to keep Palestinian drivers safe and TechCrunch’s piece on India rejecting Elon Musk’s claim about the Starlink launch — shows grassroots maps and fights over connectivity rules. That gap means millions in contested regions need navigation tools they can trust when mainstream maps and state systems fail.
