barberch Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I did the survey. I wanted to tell them make it the exact same as the Quebec trail map. It is really easy to use and has a ton of info that is easy to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signfan Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Yep that's what I said. Add the ability for more waypoints in the route planning tool, add grooming delay feature and add a snow depth option that shows Snow depth. Not rocket science.

ZR SLEDHEAD Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 You know system is in trouble when it takes using a survey for them to realize it's a fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PISTON LAKE CRUISER Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 For the creator of this survey to even include option E in question 4 " to have another way to complain about the OFSC" just shows the arrogance and small mindedness of the people who agreed to use this in their survey. If they had done the job properly and completely in the first place there would be no need for them to spend time and money on the survey. And yes, the Quebec Interactive map really works well. As someone stated, " You didn't have time to do it right the first time but you have time to redo it". Rant over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZR SLEDHEAD Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Been more than enough feedback on their facebook page to have made the judgment "it's fawked" without wasting more time n effort. Between that and the online permit disaster, key to me moving forward, stop looking and acting like it's your rookie season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreyboater Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Yes survey looks a little bit silly, but I think we don't need go back to old version, just improve new one and provide information what we like to see on new ITG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyr Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 All they need to do is to get the same people who designed the Quebec maps and mobile app to set some up for Ontario. The Quebec system is awesome. I will be buying a Quebec permit next year for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An obvious attempt to make the OFSC look like they are sympathetic and attempting to make it right again. I left all my comment at the OFSC Facebook site.

manotickmike Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 X2 on the pre-existing model from the Quebec system. The App is fantastic. Worth 10x what they charge for it. The ONLY thing I prefer about the OFSC map is the 3 colour scheme. It goes a LONG way to simplify the status, ASSuming it's kept up to date.

paulslund Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Everyone keeps saying how the Quebec ITG is better, but I don't think it shows trail status does it? I can't find a way to switch from trial network to trail status.. is it there and I'm just missing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will not let you route through any part which is closed either unlike our poor in comparison ITG. The map needs to have live GPS as does the Quebec map. That is what makes it great and also the map needs to be accurate unlike the ITG for Ontario. So many sections are never correct and if they are changed it needs to be remapped and changed in real time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find there are several maps for Quebec but this is the one I get when I search for Interactive Trail Map. If this is the one, I find it hard to believe that all the trails around Ottawa are open (i.e. not marked as closed). http://fcmq.viaexplora.com/carte-motoneige/indexen.html#map The main page actually indicates that trail conditions are shown on the following webpage (which is not a map-based page) http://www.motoneiges.ca/actions/showConditionsSentierFCMQ?lg=fr I can't find a map of the Quebec trails that indicate trail status... Or am I missing something? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they offer GPS tracking that would put Trakmaps out of a job providing electronic maps for the OFSC riders and also being an advertiser might be a problem.
