We love nature and paddlesports.

We love technology.

We also know that it can be dangerous and worrying for your loved ones when you are out on the water alone. Of course, you can wear PFDs, and should, but we can do better nowadays. This is the mindset that spawned On-Shore Buddy.

Tracking

You already have a plethora of sensors and radios in your phone that we can put to use to help you track your trips and share that info with your loved ones. Our web based application will run on anything with a modern web browser and a GPS.

Planning

We use Azure Maps and several APIs to fetch waterway data and overlay that to help you identify rivers, creeks and more.

Community

We also want to build a community. You can share your past trips and secret spots. As a paddler myself I know all about the unmarked waterways that can often be then best hidden gems. With Onshore Buddy you can map your adventures and share with others.

The Future

We hope to one day have enough users that we can start using this data for good. Im sure the environmental data alone would be massively helpful to managing the health of our waterways.
