- 📦orecast: Hidden History Maps updated to version 1.0.14iOSNew in 1.0.14: hollows & channels, aerial photos from 1944/45 and a clearer map picker.
Hollows & channels
A new layer shows where the ground lies lower or higher than its surroundings: old river channels, dips, ditches and edges, even under fields and meadows. Computed from laser data, shown in blue and red. Without Pro as a preview around the map centre, with Pro on the whole map.
Aerial photos from 1944/45
Under “Past” you now find aerial photos from the end of the war, where they are freely available, always with the warning about unexploded ordnance. Part of orecast Pro.
Map picker
Every layer is a card with an icon, a name, one line of explanation and a switch. Records per hex now sit right in the map picker. The “Maps” button shows how many layers are on. At the top of the map a “Visible” box shows what you are looking at, with a slider per layer.

Kartenwahl
Im linken Knopfstapel gibt es jetzt den Knopf „Karte“. Dort wählst du den Hintergrund (Karte, Grau oder Luftbild), schaltest das Gelände-Relief in drei Stufen zu und gehst mit „Früher“ über einen Zeitstrahl zu alten Karten und alten Luftbildern. Ein Regler blendet zwischen früher und heute. Alles liegt an einem Ort, auf der Karte bleibt mehr Platz. Luftbild, alte Karten und alte Luftbilder sind Teil von orecast Pro.
Pro einfacher
Das Pro-Angebot zeigt die Vorteile, die zu dem passen, was du gerade ansiehst. Kaufen geht jetzt auch ohne Konto, ein Konto kannst du danach anlegen.

Karten zum Überblenden
Unten links gibt es den neuen Knopf „Karten“. Dort legst du Luftbild, Gelände-Relief, alte Karten und alte Luftbilder über die Karte, bis zu zwei zugleich, und blendest mit einem Regler zwischen ihnen hin und her. So siehst du, was ein Ort um 1850 war und was heute dort steht. Alte Karten und alte Luftbilder gibt es, wo die Länder sie frei herausgeben, zum Beispiel in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Sachsen oder Brandenburg. Luftbild, alte Karten und alte Luftbilder sind Teil von orecast Pro.
Waben-Karte
Im Ebenen-Blatt unter „Belege je Wabe“ zeigt die Karte Sechsecke im Umkreis von 5 Kilometern um deinen Punkt. Je kräftiger die Farbe, desto mehr Fossilien, Erze oder Bergbau sind dort dokumentiert. Ein farbiger Rand warnt vor Weltkriegsorten und markiert geschützte Stätten, Schlachtfelder und Römerstraßen. Die Waben zeigen, wo viel belegt ist, nicht, wo man etwas findet. Mit orecast Pro.
iPad
orecast läuft jetzt in voller Größe auf dem iPad.
Außerdem neu
• Der Starttext erklärt, was die App kann.
• Luftbild und Relief sind aus dem Ebenen-Blatt in die Kartenleiste gewandert.

Gebiet mitnehmen
Im Wald und in Tälern gibt es oft kein Netz. Lade dein Gebiet vorher aufs Handy, dann gehen Karte, Fundstellen und die Hinweise auf Kampfmittel auch ohne Netz. Mit einem kostenlosen Konto nimmst du ein Gebiet mit. Mit orecast Pro sind es mehrere und größere Gebiete, und der Relief-Scanner und das Luftbild kommen mit.
Heatmap
Wo gab es viel Bergbau, wo viele Erzfunde, wo viele Fossilfundstellen? Die Heatmap zeigt es mit Farbe. Je kräftiger die Farbe, desto mehr ist dort dokumentiert. Sie zeigt, wo viel belegt ist, nicht, wo man etwas findet. Die Gold-Heatmap gibt es mit Pro.
Orte aus dem Video
Zu jeder Folge von orecast zeigt dir die App den Ort auf der Karte. Du findest die Folgen unten links unter „Videos“.
Mein Fundbuch
Deine Funde mit Art, Datum und Notiz, auf Wunsch als PDF. Einen Fund kannst du jetzt auch ohne Netz erfassen. Er wird hochgeladen, sobald du wieder Netz hast.
Außerdem neu
• Ort der Woche: Einmal pro Woche stellt dir die App beim Öffnen einen Ort vor.
• Einen Ort teilen, zum Beispiel per Nachricht an Freunde.
• Niedrigwasser-Hinweis: Fällt der Pegel an Rhein, Elbe oder Donau unter das übliche Niedrigwasser, sagt es dir die App. An der Elbe zeigt sie dazu die belegten Hungersteine.
• Die App startet dort, wo du zuletzt warst.
• Erzgänge und Kohleflöze zeigt die App ohne Pro im Umkreis von 5 Kilometern. Ein Hinweis sagt dir jetzt, wann das der Fall ist.

- 📦orecast: Hidden History Maps version 1.0.10iOSNew: the relief scanner.
Tap the scanner button and the map shows the ground itself: ditches, banks, mining pits, spoil heaps and old tracks hidden under woods and fields. It is based on official laser scans, at one metre or finer in ten German states, plus Austria, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Norway, Czechia, Poland, England and Italy.
You can adjust contrast and sharpness so that fine structures stand out. The relief comes in grey or on top of the map. Without Pro the scanner shows a preview of one kilometre around your point, with Pro the whole map.
Also new: aerial imagery, official photos for all of Germany and Austria, visible from zoom level 10.

About orecast: Hidden History Maps
There is more under your feet than you think. Ores and minerals, fossils, old adits and spoil heaps from the mining days. orecast shows you on the map what is documented at a place, and tells you where the information comes from. The data comes from official surveys and open databases.
NEW: HOLLOWS & CHANNELS
A layer from laser data shows where the ground lies lower or higher than its surroundings: old river channels, dips and ditches, even under fields. It shows landforms, not find spots. Without Pro as a preview, with Pro on the whole map.
MAP PICKER
Under “Maps” you choose the background (map, grey, aerial) and add relief, hollows & channels or “Past” on top: old maps from 1800 and old aerial photos from 1930, including 1944/45, where the German states release them freely. A “Visible” box with a slider per layer shows what you are looking at. Plus records per hex: where a lot is documented, not where you will find something. Old maps, old aerial photos and the hex map are part of orecast Pro.
TAKE AN AREA WITH YOU AND THE HEATMAP
Save your area to your phone beforehand, and the map, sites and ordnance warnings keep working without signal (one area with an account, several with Pro). The heatmap shows where a lot of mining, ore or fossils is recorded.
HOW IT WORKS
Tap the map or let GPS find you. The profile shows what is documented within 5 to 50 kilometres. You can share a place. The app starts where you left off.
WHAT YOU FIND ON THE MAP
• Gold, silver, copper, fluorite and dozens of other raw materials, each with its source
• Fossil sites with their geological age
• Caves, old mines and show mines
• Ore veins in Saxony and coal seams in the Ruhr and the Saar
• Castles, battlefields and bunkers, plus ordnance warnings
• Relief from official laser scans: ditches, banks, mining pits and spoil heaps, even under woodland
• Hollows & channels from laser data: dips and old channels, even under fields
• Today's aerial imagery for everyone, old maps from 1800 and old aerial photos from 1930, including 1944/45 (Pro)
• The places from the orecast episodes and the place of the week
• Notes at low water on the Rhine, Elbe and Danube
HONEST, NOT PROMISES
orecast separates what is documented from what is merely possible. No invented percentages, no treasure promises. If the data is thin, the app says so. Where ordnance is likely, the map warns you. Adits and shafts are deadly. Never enter them.
AI ASSESSMENT AND PHOTO IDENTIFICATION
The AI assessment explains the local geology in plain words. Take a photo of a rock or a fossil, and the AI suggests what it might be. Neither comes with a guarantee. With a free account your first three AI uses are free.
MY FIND BOOK
Your finds with photo, type, date and note, as a PDF if you like, even without signal. The exact spot stays visible only to you; you can share it after a review, coarsened to about 5 kilometres.
