Spending time in the great outdoors is a favourite pastime of people across the globe. There is nothing quite like breathing in the fresh air and surveying the natural beauty of the gorgeous lakes of Ontario. Avenza Geographic Imager, MAPublisher and Avenza Maps make a SUP adventure on the lakes of Algonquin, Bon Echo, or other Provincial Parks an easy process from a navigational perspective and provide a means to preserve the memories. In this presentation, I will share the workflow that I utilize to produce a map in preparation for exploring new lakes, collecting data in the field, and postprocessing that data to create Memory Maps of my experience. If you want to know what is SUP with Avenza MAPS, then you will not want to miss this presentation!
