Product updates, new map data and notes about what is changing in the Iceland outdoor planning map.
DULIN started as a cleaned and curated Iceland outdoor dataset: huts, waterfalls, hot pots, campsites, hiking routes and remote planning signals that are difficult to use from a single source.
The app is being built around practical trip planning, not just around pins on a map. The free version is a preview, while Premium helps keep the database, photos, map tiles and planning tools maintained.
DULIN now includes a dedicated Premium F-road planning layer. F-road lines are dashed, colored by difficulty and connected to detail panels with vehicle requirements, river crossings, mobile signal, points of interest and live Vegagerdin road-condition context with nearby weather and cameras.
The map can now show your current device location when your browser allows location access. This is most useful on mobile while travelling in Iceland, where it can help you compare your position with nearby places, routes and saved trip items.
DULIN now shows estimated Siminn mobile coverage for places and routes. For remote planning, this helps you understand where a route may have limited signal before relying on phone navigation or online tools.
Places and routes can now include drone rule context based on official Icelandic drone map sources. The goal is not a simple yes-or-no answer, but a reminder when official restrictions, protected areas, airfields or permits should be checked.
You can save places and hiking routes into personal trip collections, mark items as planned or visited, add notes, highlight a collection on the map and export a collection to GPX.
Every user can report wrong or outdated information from a detail page. Reports can include a short note and an optional attachment, which makes it easier to improve the dataset when a hut, route, access note or photo needs attention.
DULIN now includes hiking routes as a separate map layer with route details, distance, elevation gain, difficulty context, access notes and route photos where available.
The mobile experience was redesigned around clearer panels for map, filters, search, trips and account actions, so the map stays usable on a phone without forcing everything into one long screen.
Place details now support optimized local photos and more contextual fields. Photos are served in a smaller size for the app while still giving useful visual context.
Remote Iceland planning often depends on roads, fords and seasonal access. DULIN now includes river crossing and F-road signals where available.
Premium access is available for users who want the fuller dataset and planning tools. Premium helps cover hosting, map tiles, data cleanup, photo handling and continued work on the map.
Search suggests matching places and hiking routes as you type. Selecting a result moves the map to that item and opens the relevant detail.
DULIN added GPX export for individual places, selected map items and trip collections so selected outdoor stops can be moved into navigation tools.
Map filters were changed into multi-select controls with values that adapt to the available data. The legend is generated from visible categories, so the map is easier to read.
DULIN gained user accounts and access levels for Free, Premium and VIP users. Free access remains a small public preview, while Premium and VIP users can use more planning features.
The first usable version focused on a clean Iceland map with curated outdoor points, object details, category colors and a distinction between preview data and the fuller Premium dataset.
The map is not just a static page. It needs hosting, map tile storage, photo optimization, verification work, data cleanup and continued improvement. Premium helps pay for that work and keeps the free preview available.
If DULIN saves you planning time, Premium is the easiest way to support the project and unlock the tools that make the map useful before and during a real Iceland trip.
