List of functionalities
We define together the tasks to complete during each period. Nous listons les fonctionnalités du projet, ce qui constitue le backlog. We list the project's features, which forms the backlog.
Development Sprints
The development process is broken down into 2 to 4-week sprints. A test/staging environment will be provided for your use from the very first week of the project.
Feedbacks
Our modifications are implemented continuously. We provide you with a tool for gathering feedback, bug reports and general exchanges. After every sprint, we will review your feedback and include it in the planning for upcoming sprints.

FAQ
-
The timeline for a mapping application varies based on several factors, including API complexity, required features, graphic design, map optimization, and so on.
Most applications have been developed and launched (from initial meeting to website go-live) within 4 to 7 months.
-
The costs associated with creating a custom mapping application can vary depending on several factors. Here are some key elements to keep in mind when estimating costs:
- App functionalities : The cost will depend on the specific features you want to integrate into your mapping application. For instance, simple map visualization might be less expensive than integrating advanced functionalities like navigation, search, geolocation, and so on.
- Design and User Interface : The graphic design and user interface (UI/UX) of the application will impact costs. A complex and highly customized design can require more work, and consequently, increase expenses.
- Data integration : If your mapping application requires the integration of large volumes — such as geospatial, meteorological, or real-time location data, and more — costs may rise based on the complexity of that integration.
- Development platform : The choice of development platform (e.g., native, hybrid, web) can impact the overall cost. For instance, native applications often tend to be more expensive due to the need to develop separate versions for each platform (iOS, Android, etc.)
- Technologies used : The specific technologies employed for the application's development, such as mapping libraries or geolocation APIs, can also influence costs.
- Licenses and API Charges : If your mapping application require the use of external services or APIs for specific functionalities, you might need to pay usage or license fees.

Regular maintenance for this type of project is crucial to ensure its stability, security, operational efficiency, and long-term success. It keeps the site updated, functional, and aligned with the changing demands of the online environment.
Security is one of the most critical aspects. Maintenance includes implementing security patches, monitoring for vulnerabilities, and protecting against potential threats.
Regular backups ensure data protection. In case of a major issue, like hardware failure, human error, or an attack, data can be restored from these backups.
Breakdown prevention : proactive maintenance helps us anticipate and fix potential problems before they escalate into major failures, cutting down on unexpected downtime.
Costs for project management, which encompass coordinating development teams, communicating with clients, and project planning, are estimated to be 10-20% of the annual development cost.
