Photo and map — directly linked

One tap is enough: your guests instantly see where the place they spotted in the panorama actually is. And the other way round too.

From the photo to the map

Tap a point in the panorama — MapShot marks it on the map at the same moment.

From the map to the photo

And in reverse: tap the map, and the point appears in the panoramic photo.



Why a QR code plaque?

Offer your guests a digital orientation board – just scan it with a smartphone and it opens instantly in the browser, with no app to download.

No app

No download, no installation: after scanning, the MapShot opens instantly right in the browser – on any smartphone.

Vandal-proof

Sign vandalism? No problem. A QR code board is inexpensive and easily swapped out if damaged – whereas repairing or restoring a classic viewing board quickly runs into hundreds or thousands of euros.

Multilingual

Around 20% of views come from international guests. The viewer automatically detects their language – for example German, English, French, Italian or Spanish. No setup needed.

Weatherproof

Robust, weatherproof boards that withstand sun, rain, frost and snow all year round.

Always up to date

The QR code stays the same – swap the panorama behind it anytime, e.g. for a different season. New features are added automatically, with no effort on your part.

Interactive

Visitors zoom in to explore every detail of the view. Tap a location to learn more instantly.

Tailored

We integrate exactly the points that matter to you – mountains, places, sights. On request in the standard or your own board design.

Navigation

Select destinations right in the image and get directions there with ease.
