Install any map into ATAK in one tap.
A curated, open collection of 40 satellite, topographic, nautical, trail and overlay map sources — scan a QR, tap Add to ATAK, or side-load. No manual file wrangling. ATAK 5.1+.
![]() Scan to add all 40 maps |
Fastest — per map: open the catalog site on your ATAK device and tap Add to ATAK on any map (filter by style, or scan a QR from another screen). Whole set at once: scan the QR, or on the device paste this into a browser — it imports a data package with all 40 maps, kept in ATAK's Mission Package Tool so you can remove them later:
Manual: download the latest |
Requires ATAK 5.1+ (the version that added the
tak://import scheme). GitHub can't render a tappabletak://link here — use the QR or the catalog site, where the buttons are tappable on-device.
A collection of MOBAC-format XML files, each a pointer to an online map/imagery source. ATAK reads them to display live imagery and cache map areas for offline use — essential where connectivity is limited. Pick a region and quality, and ATAK downloads it for the field.

- Can I cache these maps for offline use? Yes, ATAK supports automatic and manual caching of maps.
- Will more maps be added? We continuously update our map collection. Share your suggestions here.
Please note that OpenStreetMap may restrict ATAK client access. These maps are included for reference, and we're exploring solutions.
Want to add your own map sources? See the Creating Custom Maps quickstart to get started, or the MOBAC XML Reference for the complete specification.
