Plotter, a social network for maps, won the top award for the social technologies category March 12 at the annual South by Southwest Interactive Festival in Austin, Texas.

The company won one of six categories at the festival’s fifth annual SXSW Accelerator program, which has previously recognized companies such as Twitter and Foursquare. Unlike Google Maps and Apple’s default maps app, which allow people to search for a place on a map and look up directions, Plotter’s mobile maps app offers the ability to plot multiple locations at once. Users can also create maps of their favorite locations and share them with friends.

The app was released earlier this month on the Apple iTunes Store.
