Niantic Recon is a one-of-a-kind community mapping program that allows you to directly shape your real-world adventures across all Niantic Spatial games. By participating in Niantic Recon, Scouts become part of an interactive community and contribute to the development of the Niantic real-world map, which is the foundation for all Niantic games.

 

As a Recon Scout, you can nominate new Wayspots in your community, review others’ nominations, and contribute information or edits to existing Wayspots to help the Niantic map evolve in tandem with the real-world.

 

Earn Recon rewards and get involved with a lively global mapping community that loves discovering new Wayspots around the world that inspire exercise, exploration, and social interaction.

 

Ingress players Level 8+ are eligible to participate in the program. More Niantic games may be eligible to contribute to the Recon program in the future.
