Built on high-resolution aerial imagery from 2019, Waqf Jerusalem provides a highly accurate, interactive mapping experience right in your pocket. Key Features: • Interactive GIS Mapping: Explore a detailed, modern map of the Old City pinpointing Waqf properties, religious sites, schools, clinics, and historical sites. • Advanced Filtering: Cut through the noise and easily search for specific sites by Waqf Name, Year of Building, and Usage type. • Detailed Property Profiles: Access in-depth information for landmarks, including construction year, site size in square meters, current usage, and historical photo galleries. • Offline Field Access: Designed for real-world practicality, the app allows field teams to access vital historical records and maps even when exploring areas of the Old City with a spotty internet connection.
