Atlas by Collins, released October 18, is a world atlas for iOS. It has satellite, physical and political maps as well as plentiful information on population, communications and energy. You can zoom into any part of the globe to obtain detailed information about a region. Unfortunately, there are many technical flaws.

As with the popular weather maps of the planet Earth, this atlas starts with the Earth spinning in space. You can swipe to rotate the globe and pinch to zoom on any desired area. Once you’ve selected an area of interest, you can tap the info button to get more details. A lot of the information presented, in a world atlas-like mode is awesomely beautiful, and there is a wealth of detail about our pale blue dot called Earth.
The YouTube video for the app is an impressive introduction to the flavor of this app.
