To allow tour guides and publishers to easily publish their walks to an iPhone walking app such as WalkExplorer, WalkBuilder was built.

WalkBuilder is a web-based control panel that lets tour guides and publishers create walks, with no programming knowledge, consisting of an unlimited number of places. Each place can have images, text and audio attached and, in addition, the system allows the user to import route data using an industry standard GPS format so that the user see the exact path of each walk.

WalkBuilder allows authorised software, such as WalkExplorer, to talk to it to find nearby walks based on the user location. These can then be securely downloaded to the device for later viewing via a WalkBuilder-enabled app like WalkExplorer.

Finally, an e-commerce facility is built in that allows each walk to have a price point attached so that users can purchase their walks via the Apple App Store on the iPhone or Paypal on Android.
