## Description

Forge is a mapping and geospatial solutions company that aims to make the outdoors safer and more accessible for outdoor enthusiasts in South Africa. At the heart of Forge is their mobile application, the Forge App, which provides hand-curated digital hiking maps for exploring South Africa's beautiful trails. By offering accurate maps that show the user's location, along with offline map downloads and emergency call functionality, Forge empowers hikers to explore confidently and safely. The idea for Forge was born when founder Michael Halley moved to Cape Town in 2016 and created his own digital hiking maps to navigate the mountains. Recognizing the need for high-quality and reliable data for outdoor recreation, Forge was established in 2017, and the Forge App was launched in 2019. Forge's vision is to develop a better-informed and safety-conscious outdoor community by providing top-notch digital trail maps and useful supporting information. Their mission is to create an intuitive and battery-friendly mobile application that caters to hikers of all levels, removing the hassle of finding hiking areas and showcasing South Africa's biodiversity and recreational value. Let Forge be your trusted tool for finding your path and exploring more.
