The LEADNAV GPS application
OFF-THE-GRID NAVIGATION, COORDINATION, AND MISSION PLANNING
LEADNAV builds professional GPS navigation tools for people who operate off the grid.
The LEADNAV ecosystem covers every layer of serious navigation: the LEADNAV GPS iOS app for in-vehicle navigation, LN Command for web-based mission planning and team coordination, custom hardware packages built in-house for race vehicles and work rigs, and training and consulting for teams and individuals who want to operate at a higher level.
Professional grade. Accessible to anyone ready to take navigation seriously.
“Built from decades of leading military mission planning, coordination, navigation and operations in remote locations around the globe. Brought to the public in 2014 through rigorous stress testing in the sport of desert racing. Trusted worldwide.”

At the core of operations we focus on software and application development
We developed the LEADNAV GPS application to provide an improved GPS interface dedicated to trip planning and navigation for those operating in an off-road environment.
Breaking down Routes, Tracks and Markers
Trip Packages
LeadNav organizes your data into "Trip Packages." A trip package can be for anything, but it's easiest to think of a trip package as a specific event (offroad race, music festival) or a place (national park, ranch). Each trip package is made up of three things: routes, tracks, and markers.
ROUTES
Routes are the foundational feature of LeadNav. A route is the biggest advantage LeadNav offers over all other GPS systems. Routes contain audio waypoints.
TRACKS
Tracks are breadcrumb-style path recordings that you create as you move through an area. Tracks are intended to be converted into routes.
MARKERS
Markers represent points of interest. They offer no navigational capability, but are great for identifying things like "Front gate" or "Remote Pit A".
LEADNAV GPS iOS Application features
ROUTE BUILDER
Quickly construct routes with the tap of a few buttons
Import existing tracks or routes and edit them
Add audio waypoints, reverse route direction, or cut/splice/merge sections of different routes
AUDIO WAYPOINTS
Drop in pre-programmed turns and danger notifications or type your own
Receive 15 second-out and 5 second-out voice notifications for each audio waypoint you've added.
Routes with audio waypoints can easily be shared to other LeadNav users
OFFLINE AERIAL IMAGERY
Add an Entry or Pro License and you can download and save street, topographic or aerial imagery to your device, so the map is still there when the signal is not.
GROUP TRACKING
See your whole team on one map, live. Every device shares position, so nobody has to radio in where they are. Online or offline status on each teammate, their speed, and off-screen arrows for anyone outside your view. Included in the core app, with no extra hardware and no separate service. Runs over cellular, Wi-Fi or Starlink, so it works wherever you have a connection. A Pro License adds 15-second updates, multiple teams and teammate breadcrumb trails.
MAP OVERLAYS
Overlays sit on top of satellite imagery to provide additional information created and supplied by your organization or GIS team.
IMPORT/EXPORT GPX FILES
Import/export via direct download, email, text, Dropbox, or Airdrop device to device
Any GPS file format can easily be converted to GPX using free software
Provides a professional-grade trip and event planning platform to export/share
Compatibility
Available for the Apple iOS iPhone and iPad
Runs the .GPX universal file type allowing you to cross plan and share in/out between outside software
Export your work to other GPS units
YOUR DATA
LeadNav has no account system. No login, no email address, no profile. Your team identity is a random string the app generates, separate for every team, and you can reset it any time. We keep your current position, not a history of where you have been. There is nothing here to build a profile from and nothing to sell.
