Traverse — the outdoor map of Kosovo, in 3D.
Traverse is Habitat's own outdoor app: real 3D terrain, trip tracking and a safety layer designed with Kosovo's mountain rescue team, for hiking, ski touring, climbing, MTB, rafting and more. We built the brand, the app and the data pipeline behind it.
One app for the mountains, not three.
Outdoor people in Kosovo jump between a 3D terrain app to plan, a tracker to record and a group chat to tell someone where they are. None of them knows the local trails, the avalanche terrain on Sharr or who to call when a plan goes wrong.
Traverse merges the three: a FATMAP-style 3D map with offline maps and expiring hazard reports, Strava-style activity tracking with groups and events, and a safety layer with escalating trip plans and an SOS that works over data or SMS. Fully bilingual, English and Albanian.
Know the route before you go.
Screens from the iOS and Android build — 3D terrain, route details, map layers and the trip-plan safety screen.
Brand, product and real terrain data.
Slope and 3D terrain layers generated from Copernicus elevation data, Sentinel-2 imagery and OpenStreetMap/Overture — the same open data professional tools use.
Designed with Kosovo's mountain rescue team: escalating trip plans that alert contacts when you are overdue, and SOS by data or SMS.
Hiking, ski touring, climbing, via ferrata, MTB, trail running, paragliding and rafting — each with its own map styling.
Expo and React Native for iOS and Android, Mapbox rendering, Supabase with PostGIS for routes, groups and hazard reports.
Wordmark, the route-mark symbol, a chalk-and-stone texture language, and 35+ campaign visuals ready for launch.
Every screen, notification and safety message written in English and Albanian from day one.
See Kosovo differently.
The campaign system: black-and-white action photography cut through the Traverse wordmark, a lime signal colour and a route-mark that works as a stamp, a pattern and an app icon.
Keep looking.
