  1. 01

    Check your current data

    Open Settings → Park data. The app works with its bundled catalog even when no online update source is configured.

  2. 02

    Import a reviewed package

    Use the signed-file import option if you have an official Parkspan public-data package. The app checks its signature, hashes, base compatibility and revision before activating it.

  3. 03

    Configure an optional source

    Only when a Parkspan publisher URL is provided, use Update source to enter its HTTPS package URL. Save source, then use Check for park data update. The current app does not come with a publisher preconfigured.

  4. 04

    Choose automatic checks

    Enable Check daily on unmetered internet only if you want it. Check source dates on individual facts even after an update; a new package date does not make every underlying fact newly verified.
