DeepState announced the release of the first major map update

The DeepStateMAP team announced the first major update to their popular map of the fighting in Ukraine – Deepstatemap.live 2.0. The developers have added new features and updated the design inspired by the Human Interface Guidelines philosophy.

“Many thanks to our developers and designer. They really put their hearts and souls into version 2.0. The update will be available to everyone within a day,” the team said.

The developers have completely updated the website’s design, including all elements. This includes not only new colors and buttons, but also a carefully thought-out approach to user experience. After analyzing user behavior, the map has become less busy despite the addition of new features. It is also recommended to use the dark mode of the site with a new “more pleasant” color scheme.

What features have been added

• Offline map mode, which was requested by the military. The implementation took almost a year. To work, you need to download the files of the regions in the settings.
• Drawing tool, which allows you to draw or explain something on the map and immediately share the result on social media or via email. The tool will continue to be improved.
• A new settings menu with the ability to change layer overlays, filter icons, and reduce the load on weak devices by disabling animation.
• Keyboard shortcuts on your PC. The full list of shortcuts can be viewed using Ctrl+/.
• New change history that can be activated by clicking on the bell.
• New weapons – Taurus and naval drones.
• Ability to copy coordinates, including MGRS format.
• Dozens of bugs that affected performance have been fixed.
