what are your favorite maps for osmand and other map apps?
(programming.dev)
Everything #OpenStreetMap related is welcome: software releases, showing of your work, questions about how to tag something, as long as it has to do with OpenStreetMap or OpenStreetMap-related software.
OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.
Join OpenStreetMap and start mapping: https://www.openstreetmap.org.
There are many communication channels about OSM, many organized around a certain country or region. Discover them on https://openstreetmap.community
https://mapcomplete.org is an easy-to-use website to view, edit and add points (such as shops, restaurants and others)
https://learnosm.org/en/ has a lot of information for beginners too.
I’ve been trying to use Magic Earth more often as a Google Maps replacement. Occasionally I’ll find something that isn’t mapped and then I’ll go map it.
Magic earth is the best but having no to little traffic info make it useless
I don’t use the traffic data that often (basically never) but it seems just fine to me. I’m not getting any more or any less that I would with Google Maps
Not able to see closed roads for months is not ideal navigation but other than that magic earth is the best navigation app
I use it for bus and train times (when the trains are not on strike)
