Radar Maps is an anonymous location sharing application that do not require any registration or login to external services.

If there are too many users in the vicinity, the user can select a particular “channel” to slim down the number of users displayed. Such anonymous location sharing is useful for a number of purposes. For example, people attending a city-wide photo walk can share their location without revealing their identity. It can also be used for personal purposes such as going out on a drive with multiple cars.
