Using a mobile device and PDF map reading application

PDF map reading applications are available for download onto a mobile device or a tablet and meet your legal requirements to carry a GPS. These applications can read the geo-referenced PDF hunting maps that are produced by the FCNSW and downloaded from DPI. The app uses the GPS function on your mobile device to locate your position on the hunting map.

PDF map reading apps work via GPS satellites and will plot your position even if you have no mobile network coverage. The PDF maps available on the booking system are accurate topographic maps that display your current location on your smart device in real-time.

Each map is displayed in full colour, so you can easily recognise the hunting and exclusion zones within the area that you are hunting.
