Introducing the Time Mapper UHD program
Welcome to the 'Time Mapper UHD' - a visually stunning new program that combines mapping and time functions to produce an ever-changing 4K or HD World Clock display that will enhance whatever location it is displayed in.

Ideal for school, office, or amateur radio station, the Time Mapper UHD can be customized to produce an infinite number of display configurations to suit every requirement.

Compare some HD Basemaps:
HD Map 1 - HD Map 2 - HD Map 3 - HD Map 4

Compare some 4K Basemaps:
4K Map 1 - 4K Map 2 - 4K Map 3 - 4K Map 4

The Time Mapper UHD has 25 different Base Maps:

Need more screen space? You can show up to 720° of Longitude:

4K Map 1 - 4K Map 2 - HD Map 1 - HD Map 2

There are 60 different Layers that can be shown over those Base Maps.
Many of the layers have selectable options that you can configure to suit your own requirements.
Each layer may contain one or more of these entities: Raster image, Vector Point, Vector Line, and Vector Label.
The Points, Lines, and Labels can be altered in many different ways: size, color, font, background, border, width, padding, etc.
These settings are remembered separately for each Layer as it is shown on each Base Map. Change a Base Map, and the layers can appear completely different to how they were shown on a different Base Map.
The Layers can also be displayed in different stacking-orders to compare or enhance selected layer-details and data. Here is a list of the current Map Layers:

Land Use > Cropland, Land Use > Pastureland, Land Use > Forest Cover, Land Use > Leaf Area Index, Land Use > Population Density, Physical > Magnetic Model, Communication > Sea Routes, Communication > Submarine Cables, Communication > Roads, Communication > Railroads, Natural > Ocean Currents, Natural > Tectonic Plates, Natural > Rivers, Natural > Land Temp Day, Natural > Land Temp Night, Natural > Albedo, Natural > Permafrost, Physical > Continents, Physical > Regions, Physical > Time Zones, Physical > Latitude Longitude, Physical > Base Lines, Physical > Date Line, Physical > Compass Rose, Physical > OpenLocationCode, Cultural > Country Borders, Cultural > Country Names, Cultural > Capital Cities, Cultural > Country Info, Cultural > Flags, Cultural > Pacific Groupings, Cultural > Polar Bases, Cultural > Antarctic Claims, Natural > Oceans and Seas, Natural > Marine Features, Natural > Mountain Ranges, Natural > Mountain Names, Natural > Earthquakes, Natural > Active Fire Data, Natural > Volcanoes, Ham Radio > CQ Zones, Ham Radio > ITU Zones, Ham Radio > IARU Regions, Ham Radio > Grid Locators, Ham Radio > Ham Prefixes, Ham Radio > NCDXF Beacons, Ham Radio > Ham Logs, Ham Radio > Logger Feed, Ham Radio > Worked Grid Squares, Ham Radio > PSK Reporter, Communication > Airports, Communication > Sea Ports, Communication > Lighthouses, Communication > Satellite Footprint, Communication > Satellite Track, Communication > Space Watch, User > Map Markers, Celestial > Eclipses, Celestial > Moon Tracker, Celestial > Sun Tracker.

The numerous Time Functions can be adapted in many ways. Each Time Zone has its own clock, in analog or digital format, and a choice of label-content. Then, at the bottom of the screen you can display up to 5 large clocks, each with their own Time Zone value and choice of format. You can also add your own Map Markers, which can show the local time at their locations.

The Time Mapper UHD is of special interest to the Amateur Radio Operator, with many useful features not seen in other programs: CQ Zones, ITU Zones, Ham Prefixes, NCDXF Beacons, Log import, Live QSO display from the N1MM Logger, Live Grid Square display, DX News Feed, Contest Calendar, DX Spots, Polar Bases, UDP Monitor, UDP Simulator.

The Time Mapper UHD can import 3 separate logs in ADIF or Cabrillo format, calculate log statistics, georeference them from Internal and Online Databases, and then plot them in a variety of ways, showing individual QSOs, Country Details, Flags, or Grid Squares.
