# Ground - Offline maps for Europe area

Asked by seb_goodforest on 2025-04-07

Hi,

in the mobile ground app, it seems that offline maps are only available in specific area, excluded Europe.
Is there a way to extend offline maps support to europe area?

Thanks

Seb

After a couple of tests on the field, there is a workaround that works fine.  
 1. Before going on the field, open the ground app on your mobile device  
 2. Go to basemap menu  
 3. Choose the appropriate basemap and active Offline map option  
 4. Zoom to the area you want to visit on the field  
 5. Zoom at the minimimum detailed scale  
 6. The basemap are automaticaly downloaded to your mobile device cache  
 7. Put your mobile on offline mode to check before going on the field  
 8. It should be OK !  
Enjoy
