SmartOut Ontario - android app for outdoorsmen

I've created a smart phone app (Android only) to help with fishing and hunting seasons and maps. Basically it has:

- Map of Fisheries Management Zones (FMZ)
- Fishing Seasons by Zone (FMZ)
- Additional Fishing Opportunities (locations displayed on the map where known)
- Exceptions to zone regulations (locations displayed on the map where known)
- Map of Wildlife Management Units (WMU)
- Hunting seasons by game category (Migratory Birds, Deer e.t.c.)
- Hunting seasons by WMU - all seasons for all game in a given WMU
- Southern Ontario Sunday gun hunting layer on WMU map.
- Southern Ontario .275 Calibre layer on WMU map (small same hunting restriction for rifle).
- User Marks - ability to create or update saved location with specially designed outdoors icons.
- User Marks can be imported from handheld GPS that supports gpx (Garmin 62, 64, Rino e.t.c)
- User Marks can be exported and used on any device that supports *.gpx or software such as Google Maps on PC.

Long click anywhere on the map allows to open seasons for this location. Hunting and fishing seasons are presented in familiar format, as in official regulation summaries, but at the same time much easier to look up. Ontario residents hunting seasons are shown by default (can be changed to non-residents in Settings). Your User Marks are displayed on both WMU and FMZ maps.

The app is about 10 MB download (from Google Play) and it's free! http://b3.ifrm.com/3712/71/0/e35406/e35406.gif Check it out - maybe you will find it useful.

Yes, no ads. I hate adds and plan to keep it this way :)

He's going to get us all addicted to the app and then charge for the upgrade..:joker:....That being said. I WILL download it next time I have WIFi, and get addicted along with everyone else:cool:

LOL! :) Good idea!

But seriously - not really. What you see now in the app (current set of features) I'm planning to maintain as is, free. So I will update the seasons as they come out, correct errors e.t.c.

But if, in future, I decide to do whole lot of work and add some substantial new parts to it (e.g. public/conservation hunting areas, bookmarks e.t.c.) - then yes, these new features might be paid.

See told you guys...upgrade and you'll have to pay.:mad:

No no..just razing you. :silly:

Don't mind paying a fair price for a quality product.:thumbup:

Thanks, I'm sure it will come in handy.

Thanks for your hard work.

Downloaded and playing with it.

Not sure if anybody mentioned this app can be use even offline when there is no data service very nice!

About offline - hunting and fishing seasons (tables) will work offline 100%. The maps will show whatever was last viewed when connection was available and maybe some cashed areas. But if you zoom into some new area details will probably be missing, the base map will be blurry. Nevertheless you should be able to see your GPS location, long click near it and see what WMU/FMZ you are in and look up the seasons.

Very Cool

Nice app, just downloaded it. Played around with and and love how it's simple to access everything. Thanks. ☺️

Love it! Nice clean interface.

what would be awesome addition is adding in gps capability with Atv and snowmobile trails in mind

good for you tho and will def download

Thanks! Snowmobile trail data is OSFC property. But who knows... I'll see what is available.

Very nice, clean app!

Amazing that someone with no monetary gain can come up with something this good... while entire gov't departments with hundreds of millions in funding can only produce, difficult to read, mistake-laden, printed docs and pdfs, and even then not in a timely fashion.

Great job! 5 stars.

Nice to see the regs in a more user-friendly format.

I'll have to share this one!

Nice app p4rp thanks for making it. Already put it to good use. Had a discussion about creel limits at work. Open the app up and had the answer in a few seconds. Now 2 other fellow fishermen have installed it.

Thanks!

For fishing I tried to detect locations for fishing exceptions (sanctuaries) and additional opportunities from regulations but not all of them are correct (even in regs). I have a built-in feature to report wrong location, so hopefully if someone knows correct location of a lake with exception they could point to it and I would update it in the app.

Nice APP! Thanks.

Sunday gun hunting boundaries on a zoomable map would be a great addition.

Thanks very much for putting this together and sharing. It's very well thought out and easy to use. Good job!

Downloaded!

Got it - well done!

New version, hunting seasons are updated with 2017-18.

Downloaded the app and went thru it. Very nice! Easy to use with just the right amount of info. The WMU maps are especially helpful given that those provided by MNRF are pretty much useless.
Really well done!

When for I phones ?

Apple wants me to buy Apple PC to develop for I-Phone. I simply cannot afford it..

Added some new stuff:

- Southern Ontario Sunday gun hunting map layer. Open WMU map and use top-right ( ⋮ ) menu to turn it on.
- Southern Ontario .275 Calibre map layer (small same hunting restriction for rifle). Open WMU map and use top-right ( ⋮ ) menu to turn it on.

Added Migratory Birds Hunting Regulations 2017-2018

Wow really good On you for doing this.

I have an iPhone so I can't use it but I think there are enough guys on here that have iPhones to crowd fund your apple that you need...

I'd pitch in

Thank you. I'll see how it goes. I'm working on adding locations feature (saving favorite spots locally on your phone and synchronizing with Garmin GPS). If this app becomes popular enough it would make more sense to port to iPhones..

Finally, new version with User Marks is available to download on Google Play

Attachment 35694

I updated thanks

Updated, thanks.

How do you ensure that the dates and zones you present as fact, are in fact, correct?

I applaud your efforts at an app but I sure wouldnt want it to tell me there was an open season in my WMU when there is not. The CO wont give a hoot if I tell him "The app said so!"

Well it's still user beware in fact the official regs have had errors in the past. There is also IhuntOntario and they don't guarantee to be perfect in fact these days nobody does. His app can only be as accurate as the Government regs.

I understand that the official government regulations have had errors, but Ive also heard, directly from a friend who is a CO, that hes had judges throw out cases where the regs had an error and caused a fine/charge against a person, or he just corrected someone and asked them to stop what they were doing as the regs were in fact wrong.

Think of it this way: Its the government tells you the wrong thing, its arguable in court and your case might get tossed. If "random Joes" app from the Google Play store tells you the wrong thing you arent getting any sympathy from any law enforcement or judge.

And that still doesnt answer my question about what checks he has in place to ensure hes giving us the right info. Blindly putting your faith into a an app giving you what is essentially legal advice isnt the smartest thing to do.

If I tell you deer season starts tomorrow are you going to believe me? No? Why not? Because its not wrapped up in a fancy app?

As anything else these days, my app has a disclaimer. This is just the way life is I guess. If you are asking how technically it is done - I use an electronic format (regulations in PDF that everybody downloads) and use copy-paste to get info as is from regs. So I don't type anything (to avoid typing errors).

But nobody can guarantee that info is 100% true. So why use it? ;) I can only suggest my view: use it for general planning, browsing what is opening where. When you see in regs lines like "WMUs 2, 3, 4, 18A, 24, 27" - can you picture in your head where are all these WMUs? Are they adjacent or scattered? The apps allows you to visualize it. Click on a map and check in this specific area - what seasons are there. I find it convenient. But definitely definitely before actually hunting or fishing double check the regs. Unless you know your seasons by hart :)

P.S. fresh example or regs discrepancy: 2017 Black Bear in WMUs 26-76 in printed regs and in early electronic regs (from April 2017) was opening on Sep 6. Now if you look at electronic regs it is Sep 5! :(

Thats exactly the answer I was looking for, thank you.

I have downloaded the app and looked around in it. Good work

This is how I've been using the app, it helps when hunting public land in different WMUs to be able to visualize them on a map in a group then confirm in the regs for the spots I plan to visit. Especially with the new bag limits for small game, I've been trying to memorize what is what for this season.

I was going to download this, but all the reviews say an older version is better. Is the new bersion worth downloading?

Yes it works fine

Just downloaded it, very well done. Thanks!

Happy New Year!

Fishing regulations 2018 are added. Only few minor changes in Exceptions and Additional Fishing Opportunities.
You can see differences in on-line version of regulations (highlighted in bold red font) https://www.ontario.ca/document/onta...ations-summary

Do you know of any sort of app for the IPhone

The SmartOut app was developed by a member on here for Ontario and is a extremely good app as well as being free. There is a app called IhuntOntario that I think is available for the IPhone but it does cost about 7 dollars. I do have it myself for my Android. But I mostly use the Smartout app the member p4rp.

Happy new year to you!

Thank you your effort to create this app all my friends not on the forum are surprised someone like you taking the time to do this for the sake of our community.

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Cheers

No problem. I needed to practice my Android programming and this is how I did it. Win win :)

I'm curious - does any of you guys use User Marks feature? Did you try to import Waypoints from some gps like Garmin? I love my Garmin 62 handheld but dealing with waypoints is a pain. I used to open them in Google Earth but it was also ugly - the icons would not display properly. Now I use my app to categorize them and for driving directions for example.

wow, good job ! thx :)

Hunting seasons 2018-19 added.

P.S. Sunday gun hunting map updated too

Thank you so much for this app! Would you consider making an identical version in the play store but paid? Or some kind of in-app purchase/donation? I would love to give you a few bucks for your hard work.

forgot to mention earlier but this app helped big time. was out for the walleye opener on may 24 weekend and there was mass confusion about daily limits and an unknown slot size fishing in 2 FMZs. quick look to the app showed us we should start tossing all the fish back in the livewell as they were within the slot size not allowed. thanks.

The app is great!

Thanks for doing this and can't wait for the IPhone version

The app is great I have been using it since P4rp first told us about it.

Hi, honestly - not sure if I'd have time. But I'll keep in mind.

2019 Hunting seasons added.

Note: MNRF has changed the official regulations format this year. Game order and seasons tables were re-arranged. We have re-formatted SmartOut to align with these changes.

If you see any discrepancies please notify us. Use Contact->Email button at the bottom of main screen to email us.

awesome! keep it up!

i found this app before i got on to the forum actually! its been a huge help as me and my father have been looking to purchase a property and i dont have to go crazy trying to figure out exactly where this piece of land is on the map on the regs ! especially when its almost boarder line with another WMU! good job man big props to you! told my dad and my uncle about it so theres another 3 or 4 downloads for ya ;)

Glad you like it. Slowly but surely user numbers are growing for SmartOut. It might be worth to add some more features to it. If anyone have any wishes - let's hear it :)

the problem with apple is you have to pay to get your app on there as well as go through their conditions to put a app on their store. google play is a different story they'll let almost anyone submit a app onto their store .

Just posting to say great app! Love using it and I've been recommending it to everyone.

Thank you for idea. I called the private company, the owner of data, couple of year ago. The guy on the phone said 'we only deal with a minimum million-dollar projects'. Got a million to spare? :)

I dont see anywhere where they would talk about some kind of API to access data online. Not mentioning the fact that CLUPA is web application, different technology from whats used in SmartOut (google maps API).

I didn't have time to read but anything in here and I don't really do android development.

Not new. This layer existed there before and does not have crown/private land distinction.

Fishing seasons 2020 added.

I also added map scale for better distance judging.

I’ve kept my old android phone in service just for this app. I wish there was an apple port though.

What I like about it over iHunter is that I can select a specific species and see exactly what WMU are open instead of having to go through a few WMU and look at each list.

Hi all! Hunting seasons 2020 added.

P4RP,

First of all a big thank you for your time developing and maintaining the app , it is simply awesome!

As I am sure you already know the CLUPA maps are produced with information stored in Ontario’s Land Information Warehouse and you could get access to the GIS data through an API offered to public by OntatioGeoHub under a Provincial data sharing program (not only Ontario Open Data - cannot remember the other initiative) .
If you're a NFP it is free.

Also, under the Open Gov License you should be able to get free access to ESRI data, which is what GeoHub uses under the same license.
Data access alternatives: Through universities (most of them cache data for their own projects/students, a student "friend", cached data is free (you already have a proper disclaimer within your app)

ArcGIS overlay on Google Maps sample code

API explorer. JSON & FullREST

If you cannot get free access to the API, it might be worth getting a petition going, I am sure we will have plenty of signatures

I hope any of the above help...

Personally, I would not implement this feature. I'd classify it as a "NTH" as it would be a nice to have for those hunters who do not put their time into hunting (scouting, discover land, discover land use etc...) , and some other app vendor is banking on. Again, just a personal opinion

Hit me up on DM if you wanna exchange some ideas

I shared your app with all my fishing/hunting buddies, and thanks again for your time and effort!

Excellent app......thank you

Mikedinoro thanks for sharing this detailed info. I was wondering how people are accessing detailed geo data in Ontario. Appreciate it.

Hi guys,
just wanted to update you that I've created another app for hunters and fishermen (and others) - Location Chat. The idea is to track your own and your friends' positions on the map online and to send messages at the same time.

So, for example, if you are hunting together you get to your stands and be able to see where everybody is. And if you spot a deer, for example, you could warn your friend - "buck is heading your way!". You can also mark a location on the map so people in the same chat (and only them) will be able to see it. It obviously requires cell (data) connection in the area.

When you install the app you need to register an account on one of suggested free chat servers. Account is not linked to your phone # or email, you don't need to provide any personal info. Account looks like regular email address '[email protected]'. Once your friend does the same - you add their account to your contacts in Location Chat and you are ready to go.

Give it a try! I'm looking for suggestions and improvement ideas.

the only issues we had was making an account is a little iffy, other than that once we got logged in very straight forward, i also really like the notification bar looks better than any of the other apps out there. will be using this thanks alot. :)

Where are you located in Ontario? I have been looking for an android developer for some other opportunities in the hunting/fishing space...

Fishing seasons 2021 added!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! :)

Thank you again your effort is very much appreciated!

Downloaded and had a quick look. Nicely laid out. If there was a feature that showed you everything that was currently open to fish in your FMZ I would buy it. For example: It's December 4th and i'd like to go fishing today. What is open? Checking every species, and then the exceptions, and then the additional opportunities is backwards. Having a list of currently open waterbodies, and then the species within them seems more useful.
Just my $.02

Unfortunately the updates to the app are discontinued. If anyone desires to take over and wants a copy of source code - please email me at [email protected]. Though I warn you that is was my first experience with Android programming and is far from perfect.

Thanks for doing this for all these years it's sad to see it go.

Unforfunately I am not talented enough to tackle this hopefully someone can pick this up and continue the tradition.

yeah great app, very helpful, will be missed. Thanks for keeping it up for as long as you did

Thank you for your time and effort.

I used and referenced this app often, thank you again.

Just noticed today the SmartOut app has been updated and a big thanks and Kudo to whoever pick it up from the OP or OP did update it recently.

Please keep up the good work and thanks for doing this!

Just downloaded it again. I wonder who picked it up.

Just downloaded it for the first time. Looks like a great app. Whoever is running it my only thought would be to add the Sunday gun hunting regions to it. Definitely will be testing this out this fall though

Hello, yes someone had picked the "flag". I'll check with the guy if he wants to show in this thread.

it is a great app, I have downloaded again. I really like the way it shows where you are, very helpful when near the boarder. the waterfowl section is gone but I can live with that I guess. Thanks to whoever took over as it has to be a lot of work.

Hello there,

I'm glad that you guys are enjoying the new look and feel of the app, I was planning on releasing the iOS at the same time as Android but it got delayed by a bit. We wouldn't want to leave out all those unfortunate people who are stuck using Apple products :)
I'll post an update once the iOS is live to let everyone know and give a preview of the next version in the works.

In the mean time: https://smartout.ca/ is the official website for the app.
