@GenTollis @colinstu exactly...
Uff, ich glaube der Preis für das wildeste #OSM Tagging des heutigen Tages geht an mich:
Das ist ein sowieso schon viel zu komplexer Ort insgesamt und dann haben die noch ein richtig fiese Sturzgefahr für blinde Menschen. Uff.

Then there are non-routing uses. Snapchat, #Wandrer, #Strava, Esri maps (used in a lot of GIS products), Facebook (map shown for events, business locations, etc), anything using #MapBox (lots of websites & apps, big & small), Craigslist, Shopify(?), etc all use #OSM in some way or another. So OSM gets lots of mainstream usage through non-obvious ways.
@colinstu @kkarhan I just want to contribute a slightly different perspective regarding usage. It may be true that few people use #OSM directly for navigation, but a huge number use it either indirectly or in other ways. Off the top of my head, it is used in Lyft's routing app & OSM data is present in Apple Maps (mostly small city or rural areas at this point); many lesser known but non-techy/enthusiast routing apps, such as Magic Earth, use OSM data.

Alguien sabe explicarme la diferencia entre #OrganicMaps y #Comaps ?
Porque salvo el logo de las Apps parecen exactamente iguales al abrirlas y cacharrear su interfaz.
#OSM
So…I wrote a script to send messages to #OpenStreetMap users en masse.
I’ve been using and refining it for many months. It has progress reporting, and it automatically waits and resumes when it hits the API rate limit…I’ve used it to send mapping party invitations to thousands of users.
I’m also planning to extend it, so it can…
Should I release it as freedom-respecting software? (a.k.a. libre or “open source” software) [1]
On one hand, it could be used for spamming users.
On the other hand…
I guess there’s also a third way - make it a private repo and give read access to the code to established members of the #OSM community on request.
[1] Probably under the AGPL…let me know if you recommend a different license.
MapComplete es ahora una app instalable y puedes encontrarla en FDroid.
MapComplete es un mapa basado en #OSM ( #openstreetmaps ) que te ofrece capas filtradas para mostrar ciertos tipos de elementos.
Por ejemplo, capas para ver o añadir solo arboles, o infraestructura de bicis, o restaruantes #SinGluten, hay muchas capas, e incluso se permite que crees las tuyas propias con tus propios filtros.
Echadle un ojo, es una muy buena forma de consultar y contribuir a OSM.
Datos libres, software libre, sin tracking, sin anuncios, un 10 de 10.

@giggls @hisdeedsaredust @nbossard @colinstu No need to. #OpenStreetMap is pretty permissively licensed.
It's also trivial for them to just mirror #OSM in a way that is not obtrusive or harmful to the point that it's detectable.
Man sieht deutlich, dass ich in einer neuen Gegend war. Ich habe seit langem mal wieder #StreetComplete installiert und nun auch mal wieder 'zu Hause' geguckt, was hier so alles anliegt. Wird also wohl noch ein bisschen ergänzt werden.

@openstreetmap
Does anyone know an #OpenSource alternative to #FindAGrave or #BillionGraves ? Maybe something related to #OSM ?
#Ahnenforschung #genealogy #genealogie #OpenStreetMap
So Organic Maps continues to develop new features, CoMaps does some of their own improvements, restyles a bit and continues to get the new features from Organic Maps. This idea of 'forking' seems so strange, it'll be interesting to see how it develops.
#CoMaps #OrganicMaps #OSM #OpenStreetMap
BTW
#OrganicMaps does not require a login of any kind.
BUT if you have an #OpenStreetMaps account you can login and the app makes it super super easy to add a missing place. I think the UI is easier than using the official #osm web interface, esp. for adding business hours, for example.
𝗤𝗚𝗜𝗦 users can now integrate 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 also in the mobile app 𝗤𝗙𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱.
Thanks to the release of a new plugin, all main functions of openrouteservice can be used in QField, such as generating routes for different means of transport profiles.
The first basic version of the plugin, developed by HeiGIT in collaboration with OPENGIS.ch, can be found here: https://github.com/GIScience/qfield-orstools
It seems #MagicEarth are at least listening to the user community and holding off on the switch to a paid app for #Android until they can find some payment method that doesn't require Google service (I hope this doesn't mean that development stalls until they can get their revenue stream)
IMO if fhey are charging for it the app they should have a full website portal with payment facility *and* access to support with a ticketing system and facility to add crowdsourced map updates (rather than expecting endusers to work out which is #OSM and which is #Foursquare or other third parties), and not relying just on email or worse, Reddit) - basically all that #TomTom *used* to have not that long ago but abandoned...
