STRIKE — LiDAR Prospecting

STRIKE is a professional-grade prospecting and terrain-mapping app built for gold panners, rockhounds, metal detectorists, geologists, and outdoor mineral explorers. WHAT MAKES STRIKE DIFFERENT Traditional map apps show you roads. STRIKE shows you the ground UNDER the vegetation — the trenches, mounds, foundations, and grid patterns left by centuries of prospecting activity — using high-resolution LiDAR data most people never see. LiDAR COVERAGE • Ontario (Canada) — 0.5 m native resolution • Rest of Canada — 1 m via NRCan HRDEM • Continental United States + Alaska + Hawaii — 1 m via USGS 3DEP • Zoom in anywhere within coverage, tap a 1 km tile, unlock full multi-directional hillshade MINE + MINERAL DATA Search 300+ curated famous mines across Canada and the US — Carlin Trend, Sudbury Basin, Klondike, Bingham Canyon, Mother Lode, Yellowknife, and more. Filter by commodity: gold, silver, copper, nickel, uranium, gems, and 20+ others. Each entry shows commodity, status (producing / historic / abandoned), and geology. SMARTSCAN Our SmartScan algorithm analyzes LiDAR tiles for terrain features that hint at historic prospecting activity: trenches, mounds, pits, foundations, grid patterns. Each detection comes with a confidence score and reasons. Train it with your verdicts — it learns what YOU trust. FIELD TOOLS • Drop pins with photos and notes — mark finds, mines, hazards, camps • Path Tracker records your GPS trail live, shared in real time with friends • Go Live broadcasts your position so friends know where you are • Native GPS accuracy (3-10 m) via FusedLocationProvider • Compass overlay + waypoint navigation with distance • Offline caching for Pro users — take the map into the bush with no signal FREE + PRO Free users get one active LiDAR tile at a time — watch a short ad to unlock 1-hour access, or spend credits for permanent ownership. Pro members ($8/mo or $79/yr) unlock unlimited tiles, unlimited SmartScans, offline caching, and route planning. CANADIAN + AMERICAN MADE Built by prospectors, for prospectors.
