This looks super helpful for outdoor enthusiasts! 🧭 How interactive are the quizzes? Would love to practice before my next orienteering event.
@lucas_renaud there is different level of interaction and difficulties depending of the settings: https://www.iknow-o.com/quiz

Riding the wave of outdoor learning! Does this include terrain-specific symbols too? Could be handy for my minimalist hiking prep. 🧭
@sarah_nguyen8 the symbols are really specific to Orienteering especially when is comes to Control Description, some of the Map Symbols are used in hiking aps too, but not all of them as Orienteering maps are way have more details.
here the specs it come from:
